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

List and describe the three rock types in the rock cycle including two or more processes involved in the formation of each type
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:    The three main rock types are igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary.

   The three processes that change one rock to another are crystallization, metamorphism, and erosion and sedimentation.

   Any rock can transform into any other rock by passing through one or more of these processes. This creates the rock cycle.

In one experiment, the reaction of 1.00 mercury and an excess of sulfur yielded 1.16g of a sulfide of mercury
Nuetrik [128]

<u>Answer and Explanation:</u>

Mercury combines with sulfur as follows -

Hg + S = HgS

Hg = 200,59

S = 32,066 Therefore 1.58 g of Hg will react with -

1.58 multiply with 32,066 divide by 200,96 of sulfur.

= 0.25211 g S

This will form 1.58 + 0.25211 g HgS  = 1.83211 g HgS

The amount of S remaining = 1.10 - 0.25211  = 0.84789 g

Give the four symbols for physical states of reactants and products, and tell what each means.
pshichka [43]
We are going to use table salt, NaCl as an example.

(s) = solid, eg the salt you put on your food is a crystalline solid. 
(l)  = liquid, if you melt salt it take on a liquid form
(g)  = gaseous, if you put enough energy in the salt will turn into a gas.
(aq) = aqueous, meaning in water or another solvent. If you put some table salt in water and stir it, it will dissolve, the NaCl molecules dont get destroyed but they dissolve becoming part of the liquid.
