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

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

28atm

Explanation:

Using Gay lussac's law equation as follows:

P1/T1 = P2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

T2 = final temperature (K)

Based on the information provided in this question;

P1 = 30.0 atm, T1 = 30.0°C, P2 = ?, T2 = 10.0°C

NOTE: Absolute temperature i.e. Kelvin is required for this law

T1 = 30°C + 273K = 303K

T2 = 10°C + 273K = 283K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

30/303 = P2/283

Cross multiply

P2 × 303 = 30 × 283

303P2 = 8490

P2 = 8490/303

P2 = 28.02

New pressure of the gas = 28atm

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Fast change

Explanation:

Weathering, erosion, and deposition are examples of slow change. Earthquakes, erupting volcanoes, and landslides happen fast. Therefore, they can change the Earth's surface very quickly.

Calculate the number of moles of magnesium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms in 5.90 moles of magnesium perchlorate, Mg(ClO4)2.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

5.90, 11.8, 47.2

Explanation:

Let’s remove the parentheses and write the formula as MgCl₂O₈.

We see that 1 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ contains 1 mol Mg atoms, 2 mol Cl atoms, and 8 mol O atoms.

∴ \text{Moles of Mg atoms} = \text{5.90 mol Mg(ClO}_{4})_{2} \times \frac{\text{1 mol Mg atoms}} {\text{1 mol Mg(ClO}_{4})_{2}} = \text{5.90 mol Mg atoms}  

\text{Moles of Cl atoms} = \text{5.90 mol Mg(ClO}_{4})_{2} \times \frac{\text{2 mol Cl atoms}} {\text{1 mol Mg(ClO}_{4})_{2}} = \text{11.8 mol Cl atoms}

\text{Moles of O atoms} = \text{5.90 mol Mg(ClO}_{4})_{2} \times \frac{\text{8 mol O atoms}} {\text{1 mol Mg(ClO}_{4})_{2}} = \text{47.2 mol O atoms}

∴ Mg, Cl, O = 5.90, 11.8, 47.2
