Answer:

Hope this helped.

Explanation:

Cellulose is a molecule, consisting of hundreds – and sometimes even thousands – of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Cellulose is the main substance in the walls of plant cells, helping plants to remain stiff and upright. Humans cannot digest cellulose, but it is important in the diet as fibre.

If total pressure of multiple gases is 512 mmHg, and the pressure of oxygen gas is 332 mmHg and the pressure of carbon monoxide
deff fn [24]

Answer: 67 mmHg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Gas Law, 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 = 512 mmHg

P(oxygen) = 332 mmHg

P(carbon mono-oxide) = 113 mmHg

Remaining pressure (P3) = ?

To get P3, apply Dalton's Gas Law formula

Ptotal = P(oxygen) + P(carbon mono-oxide) + P3

512 mmHg = 332 mmHg + 113 mmHg + P3

512 mmHg = 445 mmHg + P3

P3 = 512 mmHg - 445 mmHg

P3 = 67 mmHg

Thus, the remaining pressure is 67 mmHg

Which aqueous solution has the lowest freezing point c6h12o6, c2h5oh, ch3cooh, or nacl?
Eddi Din [679]
Depression of a freezing point of the solutions depends on the number of particles of the solute in the solution.
1 mol of C6H12O6 after dissolving in water still be 1 mol, because C6H12O6 does no dissociate in water.
1 mol of C2H5OH after dissolving in water still be 1 mol, because C2H5OH does no dissociate in water.
1 mol of NaCl after dissolving in water gives 2 mol of particles (ions), because NaCl is a strong electrolyte(as salt) and completely dissociates in water.
NaCl ----->Na⁺ + Cl⁻
1 mol of CH3COOH after dissolving in water gives more than 1 mol but less than 2 moles, because CH3COOH is a weak electrolyte (weak acid) and dissociates  only partially. 

So, most particles of the solute is going to be in the solution of NaCl, 
so<span> the lowest freezing point has the aqueous solution of NaCl.</span>
