Why did potato chunks a, b, and c gain mass here?

Chemistry

andrew11 [14]2 years ago
7 0

The most likely reason why the potato chunks gained mass is that water entered the potato cells.

<h3>How does water enter potato cells?</h3>

The process of Osmosis allows water to pass through the semi-permeable membrane of potato cells.

This happens when the potato cells have less water than the material around them which then leads to water entering the cells to balance the water concentration.

The potato cells will expand and have more mass as a result.

Which statement best describes why specific heat capacity is often more useful than heat capacity for scientists when comparing
Misha Larkins [42]

The correct option is this: SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY IS AN INTENSIVE PROPERTY AND DOES NOT DEPEND ON SAMPLE SIZE.

Generally, all the properties of matters can be divided into two classes, these are intensive and extensive properties. Intensive properties are those properties that are not determined by the quantity of the material that is present or available. Examples of intensive properties are colour, density and specific heat capacity. For instance, whether you have a bucket of water or a cup of water, the quantity does not matter, the colour of water will always remain the same. Extensive properties in contrast, are those properties that depend on the quantity of material that is available. Examples are mass, heat capacity and volume.

If gatorade g series, endurance formula, contains 14 grams of carbohydrate per 8 ounces, how many ounces should a basketball pla
Mashcka [7]

Based on recommended amount of carbohydrate, a basketball player should consume about 17 - 34 ounces of gatorade g series during the hour-long game.

<h3>How many ounces of endurance formula gatorade g series, endurance formula should a basketball player consume during an hour-long game if it contains 14 grams of carbohydrate per 8 ounces?</h3>

Carbohydrates are food substances metabolized easily by the body to produce energy.

Given that the recommended amount of carbohydrate to consume to maintain performance is 30–60 g/h.

Also 14 grams of carbohydrate found in 8 ounces of the drink.

30 g of carbohydrate will be present in 30 × 8/14 = 17.1 ounces of gatorade g series

60 g of carbohydrate will be present in 60 × 8/14 =34.3 ounces of gatorade g series.

Therefore, a basketball player should consume about 17 - 34 ounces of gatorade g series during the hour-long game.

Answer:

2.The cooling effects of more indirect sunlight cause autumn and winter. Because of the Earth's approximately 23.5º tilt, the seasons in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are reversed, about six months apart from each other.

3.In North America, around June 21, Earth tilts on its axis toward the Sun. That means that at the northern summer solstice, North America will experience summer, and winter will start in in the Southern Hemisphere. Winter Solstice. Around December 21, the Northern Hemisphere tilts the farthest away from the Sun.

A balloon originally had a volume of 4.39 L at 44C and a pressure of 729 torr  to what temperature must the balloon be cooled
VMariaS [17]

The new temperature : 11.56 °C

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Boyle's law and Gay Lussac's law  

\tt \dfrac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}

P1 = initial gas pressure (N/m² or Pa)  

V1 = initial gas volume (m³)  

P2 = final gas pressure  

V2 = final gas volume

T1 = initial gas temperature (K)  

T2 = final gas temperature  

V₁=4.39 L

T₁=44+273=317 K

P₁ = 729 torr = 0,959211 atm

V₂=3.78 L

P₂= 1 atm

\tt \dfrac{0.959211\times 4.39}{317}=\dfrac{1\times 3.78}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{1\times 3.78\times 317}{0.959211\times 4.39}\\\\T_2=284.559~K=11.56~C
