The adrenal glands of a patient with primary aldosteronism produce too much aldosterone, causing a loss of potassium and subsequent hypokalemia. what electrolyte is retained by the kidneys when potassium is lost?

Aparticle of mass m is placed in a one-dimensional box of length l. the box is so small that the particle’s motion is relativistic, so that e p2/2m is not valid. (a) derive an expression for the energy levels of the particle using the relativistic energy–momentum relation and the quantization of momentum that derives from connement. (b) if the particle is an electron in a box of length l 1.00 1012 m, nd its lowest possible kinetic energy. by what percent is the nonrelativistic formula for the energy in error?

What happens to the vapor pressure of a substance when its surface area is increased at constant temperature?
