The correct answer is this: WATER MOLECULES HAVE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SIDES.

Water is a polar liquid, this means that, the oxygen and the hydrogen atoms in water molecules has partial charges, the oxygen atom is partially negatively charged while the hydrogen atom is partially positively charged. This arrangement makes it possible for water molecule to be attracted to different types of other molecules, thus it is easy for water to dissolve these substances. Water is described as a universal solvent because of its ability to dissolve a wide variety of substances.

Because they have positive and negative sides, the oxygen and hydrogen atoms have a polar arrangement.

A high concentration of water has ____________ dissolved particles than a low water concentration.

N76 [4]

A high concentration of water has fewer dissolved particles than a low water concentration.

Most cell membranes are not as easily permeable to many dissolved compounds as water is. There is a quick and constant flow of water. From one area with less dissolved matter to another with more, water transports NET. Or, if you want, from an area with a lot of water to one with little water. The terms isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic refer to the concentration of dissolved material. In a medium, such as the extracellular fluid, every distinct material has a concentration gradient that is unique from the gradients of other substances. Every substance will diffuse in line with that gradient as well.

40 g of CaCO3 is how many moles of CaCO3? 10 moles 0.4 moles 40 moles 100 moles

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

0.4 moles

Explanation:

To convert between moles and grams you need the molar mass of the compound. The molar mass of of CaCO3 is 100.09g/mol. You use that as the unit converter.

40gCaCO3* 1mol CaCO3/100.09gCaCO3 = 0.399640 mol CaCO3

This rounds to 0.4 moles CaCO3
