Answer: -

Osmosis is the process by which water molecules move from a region of high solvent concentration to low solvent concentration.

Now in any solution there are just solute and solvent.

If the amount of solvent is more in a solution then the amount of solute would be less.

Again if the amount of solvent is less in a solution then amount of solute is more.

Thus we can write that :- osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of low solute concentration to high solute concentration.

Answer:  low solute concentration to high solute concentration

high solvent concentration to low solvent concentration

Explanation:

Osmosis is defined as the process in which molecules of a solvent tend to move through a semipermeable membrane from a region of low concentration solution to a region of more concentrated solution.

For example, absorption of water by the roots of a plant is due to osmosis.

Also, low concentration of solute means high concentration of solvent, thus water is flowing from high concentration of solvent to low concentration of solvent.

Thus, we can conclude that in case of osmosis solvent molecules move from solution having low solute concentration to high solute concentration high solvent concentration to low solvent concentration

Which of the following is the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent?
Lyrx [107]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A ketone is an organic functional group that contains a carbon and oxygen atom bonded together through a double bond, that is, C=O.

For example, acetone CH_{3}-CO-CH_{3} is a ketone.

Whereas a hydrocodone is a drug which is used to relieve from moderate to sever pain.It is mostly combined with other drugs and resulting in a chemical formula C_{18}H_{21}NO_{3}.C_{4}H_{6}O_{6}.

A camphor is a volatile white color substance with chemical formula C_{10}H_{16}O. It has aromatic smell and its taste is bitter.

A menthone is also an organic compound with chemical formula C_{10}H_{18}O.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent is acetone.

Which statement best describes alpha decay?(1 point)
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

After the ejection of an alpha particle, the remaining nucleus has a mass number that is four less and an atomic number that is two less, so alpha decay is a type of nuclear fission.

The energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than 1 million times greater than the energy released from 3 grams of coal. T
SVEN [57.7K]

The energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than 1 million times greater than the energy released from 3 grams of coal is True.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear Fission is the process in which splitting of a nucleus takes place that releases free neutrons and lighter nuclei. The fission of heavy elements like "Uranium is highly exothermic" and releases "200 million eV" compared to the energy that is released by burning coal which gives a few eV.

In the given example, it is obvious that the energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than that of the energy released from 3 grams of coal because the amount of energy released during nuclear fission is millions of times more efficient per mass than that of coal considering only \frac{1}{10}^{th} part of the original nuclei is converted to energy.
