Answer : Option D) 0.01 percent solute concentration

Explanation : The contents of a cell if has the solute concentration as 0.04 percent then it should have much lesser concentration that the cell, then only it will allow the cell to swell. Because of the solutions with a lower osmotic pressure than a cell fluid solution concentration, can make it swell.

Hence,the answer will be 0.01 percent of solute concentration.

Which of these half-reactions represents reduction?

gogolik [260]

Answer: The half-reactions represents reduction are as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$
$MnO^{-}_{4} \rightarrow Mn^{2+}$

Explanation:

A half-reaction where addition of electrons take place or a reaction where decrease in oxidation state of an element takes place is called reduction-half reaction.

For example, the oxidation state of Cr in $Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7}$ is +6 which is getting converted into +3, that is, decrease in oxidation state is taking place as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + 3 e^{-} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$

Similarly, oxidation state of Mn in $MnO^{-}_{4}$ is +7 which is getting converted into +2, that is, decrease in oxidation state is taking place as follows.
