The rheo leaf peel will lose water by osmosis and become flaccid. If the rheo leaf was boiled, this would not happen.

<h3>What is osmosis?</h3>

Across living membranes, water moves from a region of high to a region of low water potential.

Concentrated sugar solutions have low water potential when compared to the cell sap of the cells of rheo leaf peel. Thus, water will move from the rheo leaf peel to the sugar solution.

This will result in the wilting of the leaf peel.

If the leaf peel is boiled, the membranes in the cells die and can no longer function as a selectively permeable interface.

pogonyaev

Answer:

Final concentration of C at the end of the interval of 3s if its initial concentration was 3.0 M, is 3.06 M and if the initial concentration was 3.960 M, the concentration at the end of the interval is 4.02 M

Explanation:

4A + 3B ------> C + 2D

In the 3s interval, the rate of change of the reactant A is given as -0.08 M/s

The amount of A that has reacted at the end of 3 seconds will be

0.08 × 3 = 0.24 M

Assuming the volume of reacting vessel is constant, we can use number of moles and concentration in mol/L interchangeably in the stoichiometric balance.

From the chemical reaction,

4 moles of A gives 1 mole of C

0.24 M of reacted A will form (0.24 × 1)/4 M of C

Amount of C formed at the end of the 3s interval = 0.06 M

If the initial concentration of C was 3 M, the new concentration of C would be (3 + 0.06) = 3.06 M.

If the initial concentration of C was 3.96 M, the new concentration of C would be (3.96 + 0.06) = 4.02 M

Art [367]
Their locations can vary depending on the molecule they are associated with but they are usually in a "cloud " that is on the outside of an atom/molecule and if the atom is unstable the  electrons tend to be located farther away from the atom.

What are the similarities between DIFFUSION, FACILITATED DIFFUSION and OSMOSIS?
nalin [4]
Osmosis and diffusion are related processes that display similarities. Both osmosis and diffusion equalize the concentration of two solutions. Both diffusion and osmosis are passive transport processes, which means they do not require any input of extra energy to occur. In both diffusion and osmosis, particles move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. Osmosis and facilitated diffusion both account for movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
