2 answers:

7 0

It called cation, Well, When an atom gains or loses an electron, it attains a net charge and becomes an ion. When electrons are lost, the resulting ion is called cation and when electrons are gained, the resulting ion is called an anion. So, Cations have a net positive charge, while anions have a net negative charge. it is true.

How many hydrogen atoms are in 89.5 g of<br> C6H6 ?<br> Answer in units of atoms.

Elodia [21]

Solution :

Molar mass of $C_6H_6$ is :

M = 6×12 + 6×1 g

M = 78 g

78 gram of $C_6H_6$ contains $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ molecules.

So, 89.5 gram of $C_6H_6$ contains :

$n = 6.022 \times 10^{23} \times \dfrac{89.5}{78}\\\\n = 6.91 \times 10^{23}$

Now, from the formula we can see that one molecule of $C_6H_6$ contains 2 hydrogen atom . So, number of hydrogen atom are :

$h = 2\times 6.91 \times 10^{23}\\\\h = 1.38 \times 10^{22}\ atoms$

Hence, this is the required solution.

When the isotonic saline solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unkn

ozzi

B. The unknown solution had the lower concentration.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a phenomenon in which the molecules of the solvent has a tendency to move through a membrane which is semipermeable from lower concentrated side to the higher concentration side, so that the concentrations on both sides of the membrane must be equal.

So the unknown solution may have lesser concentration than the isotonic solution so that molecules of that solution move from less concentrated side to the more concentrated side, so its level drops.
