How many atoms, ions, or molecules are in a 1 molar solution?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Molarity refers to moles/ L. This indicates the concentration of a solution containing solute and solvent.

1 molar solution contains 1 mole of solute in 1 L of solvent.

According to Avogadro's number, 1 mole of a substance contains 6.023 x 10^23 molecules, atoms, or ions.

For this reason, 6.023 x 10^23 atoms, ions, or molecules are in a molar solution.

What causes the difference in bond angles in carbon dioxide and water?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer is: C) the fact that the number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom is greater in the case of water.

Carbon(IV) oxide is nonpolar because CO₂ is linear molecule and the oxygen atoms are symmetrical (bond angles 180°).

Water is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule.

Oxygen atom in water molecule has sp3 hybridization. The bond angle between the two hydrogen atoms is approximately 104.45°.

Oxygen atom has atomic number 8, it means it has eight protons and eight electrons, so atom has neutral charge. Oxygen is a nonmetal.

Electron configuration of oxygen atom: ₈O 1s² 2s² 2p⁴.

Oxygen atom has six valence electrons , two lone pairs and two electrons that form two sigma bonds with hydrogen atoms.

Carbon is a chemical element with symbol C and atomic number 6, which means it has 6 protons and six electrons. Four valence electrons are in 2s and 2p orbitals.  

Electron configuration of carbon atom: ₆C 1s² 2s² 2p².  

In carbon dioxide, carban has sp hybridization with no lone pairs.

I NEED THE ANSWER IMMEDIATELY!!! Pls helppp
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

turgor pressure can be done in a lab or a self test.

turgor pressure is key to the plant’s vital processes. It makes the plant cell stiff and rigid. Without it, the plant cell becomes flaccid. Prolonged flaccidity could lead to the wilting of plants.

Turgor pressure is also important in stomate formation. The turgid guard cells create an opening for gas exchange. Carbon dioxide could enter and be used for photosynthesis. Other functions are apical growth, nastic movement, and seed dispersal.

Explanation:

  • salt is bad for turgor pressure.
  • Turgidity helps the plant to stay upright. If the cell loses turgor pressure, the cell becomes flaccid resulting in the wilting of the plant.
  • The wilted plant on the left has lost its turgor as opposed to the plant on the right that has turgid cells.
