The molecule that could diffuse across the plasma membrane is methane (CH4).

<h3>What is diffusion?</h3>

Diffusion is the movement of fluids or substances from regions of high concentration toward regions of lower concentration.

The plasma membrane is the semipermeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. The semipermeability means that it allows some molecules through but blocks other substances.

The semipermeable plasma membrane readily allows the passage of small hydrophobic and polar molecules.

Therefore, the molecule that could diffuse across the plasma membrane is methane (CH4).

A solution of H2SO4(aq) with a molal concentration of 4.80 m has a density of 1.249 g/mL. What is the molar concentration of thi

Naddika [18.5K]

Imagine we have <span>mass of solvent 1kg (1000g)
According to that: </span> $molality =n(solute) / m(solvent) =\ \textgreater \ 4.8m = 4.8mole / 1kg$
= 4.8 mole * 98 g/mole = 470g
$m(H2SO4) = n(H2SO4)*Mr(H2SO4) =\ \textgreater \$ $=\ \textgreater \ Molarity = 4.8 mole / 1.2 L = 4 M$ m(H2SO4) which is =<span>470g

</span><span>m(solution) = m(H2SO4) + m(solvent) = 470 + 1000 = 1470 g
d(solution) = m(solution) / V(solution) =>
=> 1.249 g/mL = 1470 g / V(solution) =></span>
$Molarity = n(solute) / V(solution) =\ \textgreater \$

2) Which liberates the most energy?

evablogger [386]

Answer: $F(g)+e^-\rightarrow F^-(g)$

Explanation:

Electron gain enthalpy is defined as energy released on addition of electron to an isolated gaseous atom.

The amount of energy released will be maximum when the tendency to attract electrons is maximum. As flourine has atomic number of 9 and has electronic configuration of 2,7. It can readily gain 1 electron to attain stable noble gas configuration and hence liberates maximum energy.

$F(g)+e^-\rightarrow F^-(g)$
