Answer:

Explanation:

1. diffusion is a physical process when there is random motion of molecules by which there is a net flow of matter from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

2. Osmosis is the diffusion of water where molecules of water move passively (without energy) from high concentration to low concentration. eg: the way water rushes into a sponge.

3. Active transport moves particles from low to higher concentration. The difference between diffusion and active transport is diffusion does not require energy (eg: oxygen moving from the airways to the lungs - there is very little oxygen in the lungs but lots in the air).  whereas active transport does require energy (eg: when plants take up nutrients from the soil. The soil does not have a large concentration of nutrients, but the plant does)

Given the reactions below, (1) Na(s) + H2O(l) → NaOH(s) + 1/2 H2(g) LaTeX: \Delta H^o_{rxn}Δ H r x n o = −146 kJ (2) Na2SO4(s) +
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

   ΔrxnH  = -580.5 kJ

Explanation:

To solve this question we are going to help ourselves with Hess´s law.

Basically the strategy here is to work  in an algebraic way with the three first reactions so as to reprduce the desired equation when we add them together, paying particular attention to place the reactants and products in the order that they are in the desired equation.

Notice that in the 3rd reaction we have 2 mol Na₂O (s) which is a reactant but with a coefficient of one, so we will multiply this equation by 1/2-

The 2nd equation has Na₂SO₄ as a reactant and it is a product in our required equation, therefore we will reverse the 2nd . Note the coefficient is 1 so we do not need to multiply.

This leads to the first equation and since we need to cancel 2 NaOH, we will nedd to multiply by 2 the first one.

Taking  1/2 eq 3 + (-) eq 2 + 2 eq 1 should do it.

      Na₂O (s) + H₂ (g) ⇒ 2 Na (s) + H₂O(l)             ΔrxnHº = 259 / 2 kJ  1/2 eq3

+    2NaOH(s)  + SO₃(g) ⇒  Na₂SO₄ (s) + H₂O (l)   ΔrxnHº = -418 kJ     - eq 2

+    2Na (s) + 2 H₂O (l)  ⇒   2 NaOH (s) + H₂ (g)    ΔrxnHº = -146 x 2    2 eq 1

<u>                                                                                                                                         </u>

Na₂O (s) + SO₃ (g)  ⇒ Na₂SO₄ (s)    ΔrxnHº =  259/2 + (-418) + (-146) x 2 kJ

                                                          ΔrxnH  = -580.5 kJ

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:A) cotton

A fiber if available in trace or appropriate amount can link a suspect to a crime.Solubility is a preliminary test performed for identification of the type of fiber. In this method small amount of fiber evidence is dissolved in the suitable solvent to identify it's type. Some fibers completely get solublize in the solvent, some get partially soluble and other can only change their color or do not dissolve at all.

According to the given situation, the fiber dissolved in hydrochloric acid can be cotton. As the fibers of cotton are soft and slender and will get easily solubilize in hydrochloric acid.

Acetone is a three-carbon aldehyde. True/False.
stiv31 [10]

Answer: acetone is a ketone and not an aldehyde. Therefore it's false

Explanation:

Acetone is of structure CH3-CO-CH3

which makes it a ketone.

Both aldehyde and ketone have a carbonyl group but there is difference between aldehyde and ketone.

Aldehydes have a general formula R-CHO

where R is a methyl group including H atom, and CHO is the functional group.

While

Ketone have the general formula R-CO-Ri

where R and Ri are methyl groups excluding H atom, and CO is the functional group.

Hint: ketones usually end with the suffix "one" as in acetone.
