Answer:

Please look in the explanation section

Explanation:

Tonicity is defined as the gradient of the osmotic pressure, which is the potential of two solutions that are isolated by a semipermeable membrane. This term is generally used when detailing the cellular response of cells that are submerged in a solution. Tonicity is affected by solutes that are unable to cross the membrane, thereby exerting osmotic pressure. The solutes that cross the membrane do not affect the tone.

On the other hand, the term hypertonic means a higher concentration, defining itself as a solution with a high concentration of solutes that are found outside the cell. If a cell is immersed in this type of solution, the water moves out of the cell to achieve balance between solutes.

The hypotonic term has to do with a lower concentration. These solutions are characterized by having a low concentration of solutes, in this way, water will enter the cell and produce inflammation.

Finally, an isotonic solution is a solution in which the concentration is the same as the concentration of the solutes in other solutions. For example, if the concentration of the water and solute molecules are the same in an external solution as in the cell content. The water molecules spread within the plasma membrane in both directions, and in this way, the cell will neither gain nor lose water.

likoan [24]

Answer:

The smell of a chocolate is from the presence of volatile compounds present in the chocolate bar which at room temperature readily changes phase from solid to liquid to vapor or gas

Explanation:

There are nearly 600 identified compounds present in a chocolate bar and out of these, there are volatile components which gives the chocolate bar its distinctive aroma.

These volatile chocolate contents readily change phase from solid to vapor, with very short duration liquid phase.

For example, 3 methylbutanal, vanillin, and several organic compounds which are known to be readily volatile.

Explain how to use a graph to show whether or not the speed of an object is constant.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

A horizontal line on a speed-time graph represents a constant speed. A sloping line on a speed-time graph represents an acceleration. The sloping line shows that the speed of the object is changing. The object is either speeding up or slowing down.

The maximum amount of nickel(II) cyanide that will dissolve in a 0.220 M nickel(II) nitrate solution is...?
sweet [91]

Answer : The maximum amount of nickel(II) cyanide is 5.84\times 10^{-12}M

Explanation :

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

                       Ni(CN)_2\rightleftharpoons Ni^{2+}+2CN^-

Initial conc.                        0.220       0

At eqm.                             (0.220+s)   2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

K_{sp}=[Ni^{2+}][CN^-]^2

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

3.0\times 10^{-23}=(0.220+s)\times (2s)^2

s=5.84\times 10^{-12}M

Therefore, the maximum amount of nickel(II) cyanide is 5.84\times 10^{-12}M
