Which of the solutions have greatest osmotic pressure 30% sucrose 60% sucrose or 30% magnesium sulfate?

1 answer:

4 0

Osmotic pressure is the minimum amount of pressure a solution must exert in order to prevent from crossing a barrier by osmosis. Solute molecules have difficulty crossing semipermeable membranes, so the more solutes that are in a solution, the higher the osmotic pressure will be. Between 30% sucrose and 60% sucrose, 60% sucrose will have a greater osmotic pressure than 30% because it has a higher percentage of solutes. However, since sucrose has a higher potential to cross semipermeable membranes and is more absorbable than magnesium sulfate, magnesium sulfate would have a higher osmotic pressure than 60% sucrose even though 60% sucrose has higher molecules.

Students in a lab used a hot plate to boil water. Which of the following illustrations best represents the change in the movemen

Digiron [165]

The second illustration is the best representation of the change in the movement of particles as the temperature of the water changes.

Explanation:

The second option perfectly represents the boiling of water. As when the temperature is increased, the water molecules gain energy to move faster, thus their kinetic energy of the atoms will be more. This will lead to more freely movement of all the atoms of the water.

And as boiling leads to transformation from liquid state to gaseous state, so the increase in the distance between atoms and molecules occurs in the gaseous state. Thus, the second illustration is best suitable for representing the boiling of water.

As on increasing temperature of the water, the distance between the molecules is increasing in the second illustration while the other illustration shows the decrease in the distance between the molecules. So, the second illustration is the best representation of the change in the movement of particles as the temperature of the water changes.

A)Potassium bromide(aq) + Barium iodide(aq) → Potassium iodide(aq) + Barium bromide(s)

2KBr(aq)+BaI2(aq) → 2KI(aq)+BaBr2(s)

B)Balance the Chemical Equation for the reaction of calcium carbonate with hydrochloric acid:
CaCO3+ HCl -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O To balance chemical equations we need to look at each element individually on both sides of the equation. calcium carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula CaCO3.

Why ammonium is not a molecular ion

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Ammonium $(NH_{4}^+)$ is not a molecular ion because it is just a poly-atomic ion. A molecular ion has a "negative or positive charge" as a whole but the positive charge on here is not on the whole. So, it is a poly-atomic ion and not molecular ion.
