Answer is: c) CAM.

CAM (crassulacean acid metabolism) is a carbon fixation pathway.

In plants with CAM carbon fixation, carbon dioxide is stored as the malic acid malate in vacuoles at night.

During the daytime, the malic acid is transported to chloroplasts where it is converted back to carbon dioxide, which is then used during photosynthesis.

Malic acid is an organic dicarboxylic acid with the molecular formula C₄H₆O₅.

Does adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent, a lesser extent, or a greater e

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water <em><u>to the same extent</u></em> by adding 1 mol of $C_06H_{12}O_6$ to 1 kg of water.

Explanation:

1) Moles of NaCl , $n_1=1 mol$

Mass of water = m= 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = $n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol$

Vapor pressure of the solution = $p$

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = $p_o=17.5 Torr$

Mole fraction of solute(NaCl)= $\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}$

$p=17.19 Torr$

The vapor pressure for the NaCl solution at 17.19 Torr.

2) Moles of sucrose , $n_1=1mol$

Mass of water = m = 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = $n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol$

Vapor pressure of the solution = $p'$

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = $p_o=17.5 Torr$

Mole fraction of solute ( glucose)= $\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}$

$p'=17.19 Torr$

The vapor pressure for the glucose solution at 17.19 Torr.

p = p' = 17.19 Torr

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent by adding 1 mol of $C_06H_{12}O_6$ to 1 kg of water.
