Solute potential of a solution is calculated using the formula,

Ψ_{s}=-(iCRT)

Where,

Ψ_{s}is the solute potential of the solution,

<em>i</em> is the degree to which the solute ionizes(ionization constant) in solution = 1, as sucrose is a nonelectrolyte.

C is the concentration of the solution in molarity = 0.5 M

R is the gas constant or the pressure constant = 0.0831 L.bar/(mol.K)

T is the temperature in Kelvin scale = 30^{0}+273 =303 K

Calculating the solute potential of the surrounding sucrose solution:

Ψ_{s}=-(iCRT)

              = -(1 * 0.5 M * (0.0831 L.bar/(mol.K))* 303 K)

              = 12.6 bar

Therefore, the solute potential of the surrounding solution is 12.6 bar

NOT BIOLOGY ITS PHYSICAL SCIENCE how are the allotropes of carbon similar and how are they different?
Rashid [163]

Allotropes of carbon includes substances such as graphite, diamond or buckminsterfullerene.



They’re all similar in the thing that they’re all made out of carbon only.


However, their structure is different, such as graphite has a layer structure, diamond has a tetrahedral structure, and buckminsterfullerene has a spherical structure.  



Since they have different structures, they have different physical properties too. For example, diamond is hard because all the carbon atoms in the structure is held together by strong covalent bonds, while graphite are graphene layers that are held by weak intermolecular forces which makes the layers slide over each other easily thus making graphite soft.

What are Mendel's Laws?
Nady [450]

1. Law of Segregation: When gametes form, alleles are separated so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene

2. Law of Independent Assortment: The segregation of alleles for one gene occurs independently to that of any other gene

3. Principle of Dominance: Recessive alleles will be masked by dominant alleles†
