Answer:

d. is the hydrostatic pressure produced on the surface of a semi-permeable membrane by osmosis.    

Explanation:

Osmosis -

It is the flow of the molecules of solvent from a region of higher concentration towards the region of lower concentration via a semipermeable membrane , is known as osmosis.

Osmotic pressure -

It refers to the minimum amount of pressure , which is required to be applied to the solution in order to avoid the flow of pure solvent via the semipermeable membrane , is referred to as osmotic pressure.

Or in simple terms ,

Osmotic pressure is the pressure applied to resists the process of osmosis.

Hence ,

From the given options in the question,

The correct option regarding osmotic pressure is d.

What is the relationship between Celsius and kelvin
Inga [223]

The relationship between Celsius and kelvin is that degrees Kelvin is equal to degrees Celsius + 273.15. That means that the freezing point of water (0°C) is 273.15° kelvin. This makes an additive relationship between the two quantities, so quantities such as the boiling point and freezing point of water are the same distance apart on the Kelvin scale (100 degrees). This means that kelvin has the same magnitude as Celsius.

A green laser pointer emits light with a wavelength of 542 nm. What is the frequency of this light?
ehidna [41]
As we know that wavelength and frequency is inversely proportional to each other. Greater the wavelength smaller the frequency and vice versa.
 
Solution:


The relation between wavelength and frequency is as follow,

υ = c / λ

where
            υ = frequency = ?
            c = velocity of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹
            λ = wavenumber = 542 nm = 542 × 10⁻⁹ m
Putting the given values,
    
            υ = 3.0 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹ / 542 × 10⁻⁹ m
Result:
            υ = 5.53 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Why is a relatively large amount of energy required to turn liquid water into water vapor?
bagirrra123 [75]
Water can exist in three states.

1) Solid State: Called Ice.

2) Liquid State: Called Liquid Water.

3) Gas State: Called Steam.

Remember:
                  The physical states of a matter depends upon the interactions between the particles of that substance. The interactions are very strong in solid state, strong in liquid state and very weak or negligible in gas state. 
                  If you want to change the state from solid to liquid, or from liquid to gas you will have to provide energy in order to break the interactions between the molecules. Stronger the interactions, the more is energy required to break the interactions.
                  Water need more energy to convert from liquid to gas phase because hydrogen bond interactions are present among the molecules of water. And the hydrogen bonds are strong enough. Hence in order to break these interactions high energy is required.

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential +0.80 V . An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the anode
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a. Minimum 1.70 V

b. There is no maximum.

Explanation:

We can solve this question by remembering that the cell potential is given by the formula

ε⁰ cell = ε⁰ reduction -  ε⁰  oxidation

Now the problem states the cell must provide at least 0.9 V and that the reduction potential of the  oxidized species  0.80 V, thus

ε⁰ reduction -  ε⁰  oxidation ≥  ε⁰ cell

Since ε⁰  oxidation is by definition the negative of ε⁰ reduction , we have

ε⁰ reduction - ( 0.80 V )  ≥  0.90 V

⇒ ε⁰ reduction  ≥ 1.70 V

Therefore,

(a) The minimum standard reduction potential is 1.70 V

(b) There is no maximum standard reduction potential since it is stated in the question that we want to have a cell that provides at leat 0.9 V
