Answer:

This Question is incomplete

Explanation:

What is needed to be understood here is the concept of hypertonic and hypotonic solutions and their effects on cells.

Hypertonic solution is a solution in which the concentration of the solutes outside of the cell is greater than inside (in the cytoplasm) of the cell while hypotonic solution is a solution in which the concentration of solutes inside of the cell (in the cytoplasm) is greater than outside of the cell.

From the above, we can deduce that the question is about the effect of placing a prokaryotic cell in a hypertonic solution. When a prokaryotic cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water moves (through osmosis) from inside of the cell to the outside environment causing the prokaryotic cell to shrink.

Which statement describes a reason to consider air a mixture? A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements. B) The comp
umka21 [38]

The correct answer is - A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements.

With the statement ''the major constituents of air are gaseous elements'' we can easily conclude that the air is a mixture. The reason for that is that we have a plural usage of the word element, elements, which mean that there are multiple elements that make up the air.

The air is indeed predominantly a mixture of gaseous elements. The most abundant gas in the air being the nitrogen with 78.9%, oxygen with 20.95%, argon 0.93%, and carbon dioxide 0.04%, with lesser amounts of other gases also be present in it. The water vapor is also present in the air, though it is variable, being around 1% at sea level, but only 0.4% over the entire atmosphere.

when carbon is burned in air, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. When 14.4g of carbon were burned in the presence of
SpyIntel [72]
Answer: C(s) + O2(g) --> CO2(g)12g (C) .... 50.8g (O2)................. initial amounts0g(C) .........18.8g(O2) ................. amounts when reaction completeThat means that C was the limiting reactant, and the amount of CO2 is based on the amount of carbon that burned. Covert 12 grams of carbon to moles. The moles of CO2 will be the same, since they are in a 1:1 mole ratio. Then convert the moles of CO2 to grams.12g C x (1 mol C / 12.0 g C) x (1 mol CO2 / 1 mol C) x (44.0g CO2 / 1 mol CO2) =44 g of CO2
