A living cell with a tonicity (solute concentration) equivalent to 0.9% NaCl is placed in a solution containing 2% NaCl. Assume

that aquaporins are present and that the membrane therefore is permeable to water.

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This illustration refers to an hypertonic solution. Hypertonic solution is a solution in which the surrounding solution has a higher solute concentration (2% of NaCl) than the cell's cytosol (0.9% of NaCl). In hypertonic solution, the solution outside the cell (with higher concentration) pulls the water from the cell's cytosol (via osmosis) causing the cell to shrink.

Answer: 0.0450 moles of CaCl_2

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

\text{Number of moles of} CaCl_2=\frac{5.00g}{110.98g/mol}=0.0450moles

Thus there are 0.0450 moles of CaCl_2

Which phrase is an accurate description of the process of erosion?
Degger [83]

Answer:

moving bits of rock and soil across the earth’s surface by water, wind, or glaciers

Explanation:

Erosion is the active wearing away of the earth's surface by agents of denudation such as running water, wind, ice and waves.

Denudation is the process of lowering and leveling of the earth surface by gradual breaking and wearing away of the earth.

The sequence of denudation progresses from weathering to erosion through transportation and it finally ends with depositions.

Erosion moves rock bits and soils that have been disintegrated and decayed by the process of weathering. During transportation, eroded materials are carried away to new areas where they are deposited.
