Question #241760

Write the schemes of uric acid reactions with 1 mole of NH4OH and with two moles of NaOH. Characterize the solubility these two urates. What is the role of urates in the organism?

Expert's answer

Ammonium hydroxide does not dissociate. NH4OH(aq) ⟷ NH4(aq) + OH(aq) NH4OH(aq) ⟶ NH4+1(aq) + OH-1(aq) NH4OH(aq) ⟷ NH4+1(aq) + OH-1(aq)


Urate: A salt derived from uric acid. When the body cannot metabolize uric acid properly, urates can build up in body tissues or crystallize within the joints. See also gout, uric acid.
