0.3147 concentration (in moles/l) of a saline (NaCl) solution will provide an isotonic eyedrop solution.

Isotonic eye drops

Because it might result in eye discomfort or tissue damage if it is not maintained, isotonicity is regarded as a crucial component of ophthalmic medicines. A few drops of blood are mixed with the test preparation before being examined and judged under a microscope at a magnification of 40. Isotonic solutions are those that have the same amount of water and other solutes in them as the cytoplasm of a cell. Since there is no net gain or loss of water, placing cells in an isotonic solution will not cause them to either shrink or swell.

We can calculate the osmotic pressure exerted by a solution using the following expression.

π = M . R . T

where,

π is the osmotic pressure

M is the molar concentration of the solution

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

The absolute temperature is 37 + 273 = 310 K

π = M . R . T

8 = (X mol/L) . (0.082atm.L/mol.K) . 310 K = 0.3147 mol/L

Which scenario would result in a population growth of zero? Use this formula: population growth = (birth rate + immigration) – (
swat32

Answer:

12 individuals are born 10 individuals emigrate, 4 individuals die, 14 individuals immigrate, 0 individuals are born

Explanation:

From the formula:

Population growth = (birth rate + immigration) – (death rate + emigration)

                       = (b + i) - (d + e)

<em>For the first option, b = 12, i = 0, d = 12, e = 12</em>

population growth = (12+0) - (12+12) = -12

<em>For the second option: b = 13, i = 0, d = 3, e = 16</em>

population growth = (13+0) - (3+16) = -6

<em>For the third option: b = 12, i = 20, d = 0, e = 8</em>

population growth = (12+20) - (0+8) = 24

<em>For the last option: b = 0, i = 14, d = 4, e = 10</em>

population growth = (0+14) - (4+10) = 0

Hence, the last option is the correct option.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies a volume of 250 mL at .8 atm of pressure. What volume will it occupy at 1.2 atm of pressure?
musickatia [10]
167 mL

P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = .8 atm
V1 = 250 mL
P2 = 1.2 atm

Solve for V2 —> V2 = P1V1/P2

V2 = (0.8 atm)(250 mL) / (1.2 atm) = 167 mL

Part 1: Name the type of chemical reaction that occurs when calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) reacts with nitric acid (HNO3).
liberstina [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> Neutralization reaction

<u>For 2: </u>Zinc is more reactive than lead and less reactive than calcium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For (1):</u>

When a base reacts with an acid to form a salt and water molecule, it is known as a neutralization reaction. The general equation follows:

HX+BOH\rightarrow BX+H_2O

The chemical equation for the reaction of calcium hydroxide and nitric acid follows:

Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

  • <u>For (2):</u>

A single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its salt solution. The general chemical equation follows:

A+BX\rightarrow AX+B

where,

Metal A is more reactive than metal B

The reactivity of metals is judged by the reactivity series where a metal lying above in the series is more reactive than the metal lying below it.

From the reactivity series below,

Zinc lies above in the series than lead thus is more reactive and will easily replace lead from its aqueous solution.

While zinc lies below in the series than calcium thus is less reactive and will not easily replace calcium from its aqueous solution.

Zn(s)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Zn(NO_3)_2(aq)+Pb(s)

Zn(s)+CaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow \text{No reaction}
