The answer is not D, because water creates turgidity.
The answer is not C, because water is important in many biological reactions.
The answer is either A, or B. Knowing that water composes almost 75% of the body, you can assume that It is a common substance, for A, or you could know that is allows reactions to occur more easily, acting as a sort of catalyst, for answer B. 
A or B. Your call for the final answer.

How many moles are in 2.04 × 1024 molecules of h2o?
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

3.4moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules = 2.04 x 10²⁴

Unknown: Number of moles

Solution

We use the concept of mole to solve this kind of problem.

A mole is the amount of substance that contains Avogadro's number of particle i.e 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

Solving

For elementary particles:

Number of moles = \frac{number of particles}{6.02 x 10^{23} }¹ molecules

Number of moles = \frac{2.04 x 10^{24} }{6.02 x ^{23} }

Number of moles of H₂O = 0.34 x 10¹ = 3.4moles

In the reaction below, if a total of 10.0 g of zinc and hydrochloric acid react completely, what is the total mass of zinc chlor
Sloan [31]

Answer:

Not enough information to tell.

Explanation:

What is given?

Mass of Zn = 10.0 g,

Mass of HCl = 10.0 g,

Molar mass of Zn = 65.4 g/mol,

Molar mass of HCl = 36.4 g/mol,

Molar mass of ZnCl2 = 136.2 g/mol,

Molar mass of H2 = 2 g/mol.

Step-by-step solution:

First, let's convert 10.0 g of each reactant to moles using their respective molar mass:

\begin{gathered} 10.0\text{ g Zn}\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol Zn}}{65.4\text{ g Zn}}=0.153\text{ moles Zn,} \\  \\ 10.0\text{ g HCl}\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol HCl}}{36.4\text{ g HCl}}=0.275\text{ moles HCl.} \end{gathered}

Now, let's identify what is the limiting reactant. Let's see how many moles of ZnCl2 can be produced by 0.153 moles of Zn if 1 mol of Zn reacted produces 1 mol of ZnCl2, and how many moles of ZnCl2 can be produced by 0.275 moles of HCl if 2 moles of HCl reacted produces 1 mol of ZnCl2:

\begin{gathered} 0.153\text{ moles Zn}\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol ZnCl}_2}{1\text{ mol Zn}}=0.153\text{ moles ZnCl}_2, \\  \\ 0.275\text{ moles HCl}\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol ZnCl}_2}{2\text{ moles HCl}}=0.138\text{ moles ZnCl}_2. \end{gathered}

You can realize that the limiting reactant, in this case, is HCl because is the first reactant consumed first and this reactant 'impose' the limit to produce the products.

So now, let's find how many moles of H2 are being produced by 0.275 moles of HCl if 2 moles of HCl reacted produces 1 mol of H2:

0.275\text{ moles HCl}\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol H}_2}{2\text{ moles HCl}}=0.138\text{ moles H}_2.

The final step is to convert each number of moles of each product to grams using their respective molar mass, as follows:

\begin{gathered} 0.138\text{ moles ZnCl}_2\cdot\frac{136.2\text{ g ZnCl}_2}{1\text{ mol ZnCl}_2}=18.8\text{ g ZnCl}_2, \\  \\ 0.138\text{ moles H}_2\cdot\frac{2\text{ g H}_2}{1\text{ mol H}_2}=0.276\text{ g H}_2. \end{gathered}

We're producing 18.8 g of zinc chloride (ZnCl2), and 0.276 g of hydrogen (H2), so based on this logic the answer would be not enough information to tell.

A scientist performs an experiment in which they create an artificial cell with a selectively permeable membrane through which o
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Water moves into the cell

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the cell is high in glucose and placed in a glass filled with water. This cell has a semi permeable membrane that allows only water to pass through, as the concentration of water within the cell is low, the cell will attempt to strike a balance with the medium it is inserted into. For this reason, what is likely to happen is the passage of water from the most concentrated to the least concentrated medium, that is, the water will pass from the cup to the cell.

water moves into the cell through osmosis.during osmosis water moves from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration of solute.the glucose introduced into the cell makes it more concentrated.

In this case the cell is hypertonic and water would enter into the cell through the semi permeable membrane.this membrane allows water to pass through but not glucose.this movement of water into the cell causes the cell to become turgid.
