The average time it takes for a molecule to diffuse a distance of x cm is given by t=x^2/2D where t is the time in seconds and D

is the diffusion coefficient. Given that the diffusion coefficient of glucose is 5.7 x 10^-7 cm2/s, calculate the time it would take for a glucose molecule to diffuse 10 pm, which is roughly the size of a cell.

Answer:

Explanation:

time to diffuse x cm is given by the relation

t = X² /2D

D = 5.7 x 10⁻⁷

t = X² / 2 x 5.7 x 10⁻⁷ = X² x 10⁷ / 11.4 s

X = 10 pm = 10 x 10⁻¹² m = 10 x 10⁻¹⁰ cm = 10⁻⁹ cm

t =( 10 ⁻⁹)² x 10⁷ / 11.4 = 10⁻¹¹ / 11.4 = 8.77 x 10⁻¹³ s

Balance the following reaction: AL2O3 + HCI ⇒ ALCI3 + H2O
Anastaziya [24]
To balance the following chemical equation, make a tally or a count of each of the atoms on both sides of the reaction, and make sure that those atoms are equal on both the reactant and product side.

AL2O3 + HCl => ALCl3 + H2O

Left side. Right side
AL = 2. AL = 1
O = 3 Cl = 3
H = 1. H = 2
Cl = 1. O = 1

First balance the metal atoms, aluminum, then hydrogen and then oxygen.

Balanced equation :
AL2O3 + 6HCl => 2ALCl3 + 3H2O.

Left side. Right side
AL = 2 AL = 2
O = 3 Cl = 6
H = 6 H = 6
Cl = 6 O = 3.

Colors are in what part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Drupady [299]

"As we move through the visible spectrum of violet, blue, green, yellow, orange and red, the wavelengths become longer. The range of wavelengths (400 - 700 nm) of visible light is centrally located in the electromagnetic spectrum (Fig. 1)."

Describe how you would prepare a supersaturated solution
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

A supersaturated solution contains more dissolved solute than required for preparing a saturated solution and can be prepared by heating a saturated solution, adding more solute, and then cooling it gently. Excess dissolved solute crystallizes by seeding supersaturated solution with a few crystals of the solute.

Between HClO3 and HIO3, which is stronger and why? Question 16 options: 1) HClO3 is stronger because chlorine is in a higher oxi
natima [27]

Answer:

2) HClO3 is stronger because chlorine is more electronegative than iodine.

Explanation:

The more electronegative the element is the more strong or acidic it becomes.

Chlorine being more electronegative than Iodine makes it easier for it to pull the electron of hydrogen more strongly and hence has a higher tendency to release a H+ unit. Hence that makes it stronger.
