Which statement describes the energy involved in diffusion? Diffusion requires energy in all cases. Diffusion requires energy on
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Both b and d can be correct

Explanation:

Generally, diffusion does not require energy (<em>making option a wrong</em>) because it is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration hence diffusion moves particles in the direction of a concentration gradient. An example of this is the passive transport (for instance, uptake of glucose by a liver cell).

However, in some cases, when diffusion is against the concentration gradient (i.e when particles move from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration), diffusion will require energy in a case like this (<em>making option c wrong</em>). An example of this is active transport (transport of protein called sodium-potassium pump which involves pumping of potassium into the cell and sodium out of the cell).

The explanation above shows that diffusion can require energy to move particles (in or out) of the cell through the cell membrane.

The standard enthalpy of formation of Ca2+ (g) (∆H = 1934 kJ/mol)
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

The process of ionization to produce cations is endothermic. For formation of Ca⁺² two ionization steps need be illustrated as follows...

1st ionization step: Ca° + 590Kj => Ca⁺ + e⁻

2nd ionization step: Ca⁺ + 1151Kj => Ca⁺² + e⁻

__________________________________-

Net Ionization Rxn: Ca° + 1741Kj => Ca⁺² + 2e⁻

Paul has different spoons for cooking. He told Sue that he likes to stir hot food with a wooden spoon because it does not burn h
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Sue was not right as wood is not a heat conductor and will not allow heat to pass through the spoon thus keeping the hand safe. In a meatal spoon, heat can pass through and burn the hand as meatal is a good conductor of heat.
