Answer:
B) Osmosis of water molecules from unknown solution A likely caused the increase in mass observed.
Explanation:
Osmosis is a type of <em>diffusion </em>(a random movement of molecules to an area of lower concentration from an area of higher concentration) of water. Like other molecules, water can pass through a cell membrane and it will diffuse across the membrane, along its own concentration gradient independent of other particles that could be present in solution. The concentration of water in a solution is <em>inversely </em>(opposite) related to the concentration of the solute, meaning that water will move from a region of high water potential to a region of lower water potential during osmosis.
Unknown solution A had the highest water potential with a sucrose concentration of 0.0 M. This means that water diffused through the membranes of the cells in the sweet potato cube as it moved along its own <em>concentration gradient</em> (from a region of high water potential to a region of lower water potential) causing an increase in the mass of the sweet potato cube
Answer:
A precipate is a solid while an aqueous solution is liquid.
Explanation:
A precipitate is a solid which separates after a chemical reaction occurs. It is the solid product of the reaction.
An aqueous solution is formed when a substance is dissolved in water.
The answer would be letter A.Among the alkali earth metals, the tendency to react with other substances <span>increases from bottom to top within the group. We know that when there is an increase of metallic property, there will also be an increase of reactivity. </span>
This is called codon degeneracy. It is also said that the genetic code is redundant, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid, like for example CCC and CCA both coding Proline.
