The state of the balloon:

When the balloon is submerged in the beaker, the amount of water in the beaker will get reduced.  

What is Osmosis:    

Based on the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane, water will flow through a permeable membrane in a specific direction.

<u><em>Hypertonic solution:</em></u>

It means that there are more solutes present in the surrounding environment than in the cell itself.

<u><em>Hypotonic solution:</em></u>

In a hypotonic solution, the concentration of solutes inside the cell is higher than that outside the cell.

  • When comparing two solutions, the one with the larger solute concentration is hypertonic, and the one with the lower solute concentration is hypotonic. Isotonic solutions have an identical solute concentration.

  • While the solution in the beaker is hypertonic, Meaning that will draw water molecules out of the cell. As water molecules move from a location of high water potential (dilute solution) to a region of reduced water potential (10% glucose solution), the water from the 5% glucose solution will flow into the 10% one (concentrated solution)
  • This is the reason why the amount of water decreases when the balloon is submerged in the beaker.

When 2.5 mol of O2 are consumed in their reaction, ________ mol of CO2 are produced
Vika [28.1K]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The combustion of propane (C3H8) in the presence of excess oxygen yields CO_2 and H_2O

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2 (g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O (g)

When only 2.5 mol of O_2 are consumed in order to complete the reaction, ________ mol of CO_2 are produced.

Answer: Thus when 2.5 mol of O_2 are consumed in their reaction,  1.5 mol of CO_2 are produced

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2 (g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O (g)

According to stoichiometry :

5 moles of O_2 produce = 3 moles of  CO_2

Thus 2.5 moles of O_2 will produce = \frac{3}{5}\times 2.5=1.5 moles of  CO_2

Thus when 2.5 mol of O_2 are consumed in their reaction,  1.5 mol of CO_2 are produced

1. How many molecules are in 240g of sulfuric acid?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

14.8 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sulfuric acid = 240 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

Number of moles of sulfuric acid

<em>Number of moles = mass/ molar mass</em>

Number of moles =  240 g/ 98 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.45 mol

Number of molecules:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

2.45 × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

14.8 × 10²³ molecules

Flura [38]

Answer:1.

Explanation: This reaction is catalyzes by pyruvate dehydrogenase. Pyruvate being the end product of glycolysis has many fates after glycolysis,one of which is to enter the TCA(Tricarboxylic acid cycle) cycle. It is first converted to actetate by the action of pyruvate dehydrogenase. This enzyme converts pyruvate to acetate releasing CO2 and NADH because this oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate is coupled with reduction of NAD+ which can feed into the electron transport chain.
