What is one difference between a cell wall and a cell membrane

2 answers:

8 0

The cell wall is the outer most covering of the cell. The cell wall covers the cell membrane. The cell membrane is also known as the plasma membrane or plasma lemma. There is no other name for the cell wall. The cell membrane is present in almost all types of cells. The cell wall is present in bacteria, fungi, algae and plant cell. It is absent in an animal cell and protozoa. The cell membrane is a biological membrane, which is semi- permeable. It allows the passage of certain substances through them.

The equation for the synthesis of ammonia is below. How many moles of H 2 are

kkurt [141]

Moles of H₂ are needed to produce 9.33 moles of NH₃ : 13.995

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

The reaction coefficient in a chemical equation shows the mole ratio of the reactants and products

Reaction for the synthesis of ammonia :

N₂+3H₂⇒2NH₃

moles of NH₃ = 9.33

From equation, mol ratio of H₂ : NH₃ = 3 : 2, so mol H₂ :

$\tt =\dfrac{3}{2}\times 9.33\\\\=13.995$

A weak bond called a ______ bond results from an attraction between a slightly positive region in a molecule and a slightly nega

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: The weak bond having slightly positive region and a slightly negative region is polar covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms. For Example: HCl, $CH_4$ etc..

They are of two types:

Polar covalent bond: This bond is formed when difference in electronegativity between the atoms is present. When atoms of different elements combine, it results in the formation of polar covalent bond.

In this bond, a dipole is created. More electropnegative atom will have a slight negative charge and less electronegative atom will have a slight positive charge. For Example: $CO_2,NO_2$ etc..

Non-polar covalent bond: This bond is formed when there is no difference in electronegativity between the atoms. When atoms of the same element combine, it results in the formation of non-polar covalent bond. For Example: $N_2,O_2$ etc..

Hence, the weak bond having slightly positive region and a slightly negative region is polar covalent bond.

Select True or False: Pi bonds are covalent bonds in which the electron density is concentrated above and below a plane containi

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In pi bonds, the electron density concentrates itself between the atoms of the compound but are present on either side of the line joining the atoms. Electron density is found above and below the plane of the line joining the internuclear axis of the two atoms involved in the bond.

Pi bonds usually occur by sideways overlap of atomic orbitals and this leads to both double and triple bonds.

What happens when water’s salinity increases?

bonufazy [111]

When waters salinity increases it’s freezing point will decrease. This is one of the reasons why people salt the roads after a snow storm.
