<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option C which is,<u> "Water molecules at the surface experience fewer hydrogen bonds than water molecules within the liquid".</u>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • In some conditions, a water droplet remains in the droplet form on the dry surface rather than spreading on the whole surface. It covers only remains on the mall part of the surface and making a dome shape.
  • It is due to the fact that the hydrogen bond between the water molecules is much strong than the attraction between the water molecules and surface.
  • Hence the option C is correct.

No. Although two such atoms are essentially chemically identical (they will chemically react in the same way), they are not completely identical.

The monovalent salt concentration (the predominant solute in the blood cell) for a sample of red blood cells is 0.13 moles/liter
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The osmotic pressure of cell is 648.3 KPa

Explanation:

As we know the osmotic pressure is equal to

\pi = icRT

Where

i is the Van Hoff factor

c is the concentration of solution

R is the ideal gas constant

and T is the temperature.

Substituting the given values, we get -

\pi = 2 * 0.13 * 0.08206 * 300\\

\pi = 648.3 KPa

5. What is the partial pressure of the remaining gas, if the total is 384 torr 2
alexgriva [62]

Answer: 83.11 torr

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressure of each individual gas.

i.e Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + .......

In this case,

Ptotal = 384 torr

P1 = 289 torr

P2 = 11.89 torr

P3 = ? (let the partial pressure of the remaining gas be Z)

Ptotal = P1 + P2 + Z

384 torr = 289 torr + 11.89 torr + Z

384 torr = 300.89 torr + Z

Z = 384 torr - 300.89 torr

Z = 83.11 torr

Thus, the partial pressure of the remaining gas is 83.11 torr.

Which description is true of 0.02 M Ca(OH)2 if Ca(OH)2 completely dissociates in water? A. It’s a dilute strong acid. B. It’s a
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: B. It’s a dilute strong base.


Explanation:


1) Definition of acids and bases: as per Bronsted-Lowry model, an acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions and a base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions.

Ca(OH)₂ does not have hydrogen ions to donate, but it can accept hydrogen ions to form H₂O according to this equation: H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O.

Hence,  Ca(OH)₂ is a base.


2) Definition of strong base: a strong base is a base that dissociates completely into metallic and hydroxide ions in aqueous solutions, while a weak base dissociates partially.


Hence, Ca(OH)₂ is a strong base.


3) Definition of dilute: it refers to a solution meaning that the substance is not pure and the concentration is low. Since, the solution the Ca(OH)₂ is 0.02 M means that it is dilute.


Therefore, we have found that the description of 0.02 M Ca(OH)₂ is that is is a dilute strong base (option B).

Aliun [14]

Many homeowners treat their lawns with CaCO3(s) to reduce the acidity of the soil. The net ionic equation for the reaction of CaCO3(s) with a strong acid, HCl (I chose HCl because it is a strong acid) is CaCO3(s) +2 HCl(aq) → CaCl2(s) + H2O(aq) + CO2(g).
