What is hypotonic,isotonic and hypertonic solution?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andrew [12]4 years ago
3 0
An isotonic environment is when the concentration of solutes and solvent (water) are the same. 

<span>When a cell is hypertonic, it shrinks because the concentration of solvent/solutes are unequal. If the inside of the cell has less solutes and more solvent, the solvent inside (water) will diffuse out the cell because of the concept of "going doing the concentration gradient". Anything will travel from a high concentration to a low concentration. In the case of hypertonic, water will move out the cell and causes it to shrink. </span>

<span>Hypotonic is when the cell is enlarged by water moving inside. So a hypotonic cell will look like it's big and expanded. Water goes where there is less concentration of it. You can also think about it from another perspective. Water always go where there is more solutes. So if the solute concentration like sodium or sugar or ect. is greater inside a cell or a piece of potato, then water will go there (since if there is a high concentration of solutes, then there is low concentration of solvent). </span>

What will most likely happen in the absence of a vacuole?
Anon25 [30]

The cell will not store food, water, nutrients, and waste.

Explanation:

In the absence of a vacuole in a cell, the cell will not be able to store food, water, nutrients and its wastes.

The vacuole provides a storage medium for the products in the cell. It is a very important cell structure.

They store food and are both found in both plant and animal cells

*Genetic information are transmitted by the nucleus

* Energy is produced in the mitochondria

* Photosynthesis takes place using the chloroplast

What are the possible values of ml for l=2<br> ​
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

-2, -1, 0, 1, 2

Explanation:

There are four types of quantum numbers;

1) Principal quantum number (n)

2) Azimuthal quantum number (l)

3) magnetic quantum number (ml)

4) Spin quantum number (s)

The azimuthal quantum number (l) describes the orbital angular momentum and shape of an orbital while the magnetic quantum number shows the projections of the orbital angular momentum along a specified axis.  This implies that the magnetic quantum number shows the orientation of various orbitals along the Cartesian axes. The values of the magnetic quantum  number ranges from -l to + l

For l= 2, the possible values of the magnetic quantum number are; -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
