For the cells in a human body, an isotonic solution is 0.9% NaCl. If a red blood cell is placed in a 1% NaCl solution, what will

Answer: The red blood cell will shrink due to water loss

Explanation:

Because 1% NaCl solution is slightly more concentrated than its isotonic 0.9% form, the red blood cell will lose its cell containing fluids such as water to the MORE concentrated environment.

This water loss after a prolonged period will result in shrinking of the red blood cell.

Copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate may be heated to drive off the water of hydration. If 5 g of water are produced, what was the o
____ [38]

Answer:

13.9g of CuSO4•5H2O

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

CuSO4•5H2O → CuSO4 + 5H2O

Next, we shall determine the mass of CuSO4•5H2O heated and the mass of H2O produced from the balanced equation.

This is illustrated below

Molar mass of CuSO4• 5H2O = 63.5 + 32 + (16x4) + 5(2x1 + 16)

= 63.5 + 32 + 64 + 5(18) = 249.5g/mol

Mass of CuSO4•5H2O from the balanced equation = 1 x 249.5 = 249.5g

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 5 x 18 = 90g

From the balanced equation above,

249.5g of CuSO4•5H2O produced 90g of H2O.

Now, we can determine the mass of CuSO4•5H2O needed to produce 5g of H2O. This can be achieved as shown below:

From the balanced equation above,

249.5g of CuSO4•5H2O produced 90g of H2O.

Therefore, Xg of CuSO4•5H2O will produce 5g of H2O i.e

Xg of CuSO4•5H2O = (249.5 x 5)/90

Xg of CuSO4•5H2O = 13.9g

Therefore, 13.9g of CuSO4•5H2O is needed to produce 5g of H2O.

Most of the costs associated with using renewable resources are due to
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

a. overuse of resources is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Renewable resources are available and they are abundant but overuse of these renewable resources will have a negative effect on the surroundings and humans.

Overuse of renewable resources will leads to the depletion of these renewable sources in the future and will also make the ecosystem unbalance.

Renewable resources are solar energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy, wind energy, hydro energy.

Thus renewable resources are threatened due to overuse and it must be carefully used.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Dana filtered the sample and larger granules of the sample were left behind.

Explanation:

If a substance is pure, it will have a uniform composition throughout. It will not separate into particles of various sizes.

One of the characteristics of pure substances is that they are homogeneous. A mixture is definitely made up of particles of various sizes.

Since the particles was filtered and larger granules were left behind, the sample has been separated by a physical method (filtration). Only a mixture can be separated by physical methods. It is not a pure substance.

4. How many grams of hydrogen is produced from 12.5 g of Mg reacting with hydrochloric acid in this
Volgvan

From the reactions, 1.04 g of H2 and 7.995 g of aluminum phosphate is produced.

<h3>What is stoichiometry?</h3>

The term stoichiometry has to do with the amount of substances that participates in a reaction.

For reaction 1;

Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Mg reacted =  12.5 g/24g/mol = 0.52 moles

If 1 mole of Mg produced 1 mole of H2

0.52 moles produces 0.52 moles of H2

Mass of H2 =  0.52 moles * 2 g/mol = 1.04 g

For reaction 2;

2Li3PO4 + Al2(SO4)3 → 3Li2SO4 + 2AIPO4

Number of moles of lithium phosphate =  7.5 g/116 g/mol = 0.065 moles

2 moles of Li3PO4 produced 2 moles of AIPO4

0.065 moles of  Li3PO4 produced 0.065 moles of AIPO4

Mass of AIPO4  = 0.065 moles  * 123 g/mol = 7.995 g
