5. Tree sap can be a very concentrated solution of solutes in water. These are mostly sugars, with van’t Hoff factors of 1. The

root system provides a semi-permeable membrane across which water moves to “dilute” the sap, providing a significant osmotic pressure.
a. If a tree sap has an effective concentration of 37 Molar, what pressure is generate at 298K across the endodermis root membrane? R = 0.08216 L.atm/mol.K.

b. If an osmotic pressure of 1.0 atm can raise a volume of water 10.33 meters high, how high can the sap of this tree rise?

Answer:

a)905,89 atm of pressure will be generated at 298K.

b)The sap of tree can rise upto 9,357.84 meters.

Explanation:

a)

Effective concentration of sap = c = 37 M

Osmotic pressure generate at 298K = \pi

Temperature ,T = 298 K

\pi =cRT

\pi =37 mol/L\times 0.08216 atm L/mol L\times 298 K

\pi =905.89 atm

905,89 atm of pressure will be generated at 298K across the endodermis root membrane.

b)

Given that 1.0 at of pressure raises the volume of water upto height of 10.33 m

Then 905.89 atm of pressure will raise the height of water upto:

\frac{10.33}{1.0}\times 905.89 m=9,357.84 m

The sap of the tree can rise upto 9,357.84 meter.

Las sustancias ionicas y los metale sson electricamente neutros. ¿como es esto posible si estan formados por iones, que posen ca
Anton [14]

Answer:

ver explicacion

Explanation:

Los iones se forman cuando las especies químicas pierden o ganan electrones.

Las sustancias iónicas consisten en un ión positivo y negativo cuyas cargas se equilibran exactamente entre sí, por lo que el compuesto iónico es neutro.

Los átomos de metal se mantienen unidos por el enlace metálico. Esto implica la interacción entre iones metálicos cargados positivamente y un mar de electrones negativos. Las cargas positivas de los iones metálicos están exactamente equilibradas por el mar de electrones cargados negativamente, por lo que el metal es neutro.
