Describe how phospholipids form a barrier between water inside the cell and water outside the cell

1 answer:

6 0

<span>Phospholipids would have to form a phospholipid bilayer in order to achieve water on the outside and water inside. This is because the nonpolar tails of the phospholipids are facing each other in a water environment because they cannot interact with the water, only their own tails, while the phosphate heads of the molecule face the periphery of the tails and interact with water. Micelles are the simplest examples of these.</span>

andre [41]

Answer: A function can be defined as a relation in which one thing is dependent on another for its value.

Explanation: Given R = 8.314J/mol*k

PV = nRT

V = nRT/ P

V = 8.314RT / P (cm^3)

Volume of gas =(( 8.314 * R* T) / P ) cm3

Give the formulas for all of the elements that exist as diatomic molecules under normal conditions. See if you can do this witho

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

They are:

H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2.

Note: whether the element At molecule is monoatomic or diatomic is incredibly arguable. While some say it exists as diatomic because it is a halogen like bromine, iodine etc, At is in fact extremely unstable and no one has ever really studied the molecules on it, so, when others say it is monoatomic, this is also based on calculations. But the other 7 elements listen above is for sure diatomic.

How much energy, in joules, does 150.0 g of water with an initial temperature of 25 C need to absorb be raised to a final temper

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

31395 J

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of water = 150 g

Initial temperature = 25 °C

Final temperature = 75 °C

Energy absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

q = m . c . ΔT

we know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g.°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature

ΔT = 75 °C - 25 °C

ΔT = 50 °C

now we will put the values in formula

q = m . c . ΔT

q = 150 g × 4.186 J/g.°C × 50 °C

q = 31395 J

so, 150 g of water need to absorb 31395 J of energy to raise the temperature from 25°C to 75 °C .
