Explain ways that organisms interact in helpful and harmful ways.

1 answer:

4 0

Organisms are living things. Us humans are also living things, so we are helpful and harmful to other organisms. For example: we can help another human being with something, or we can help a plant/tree grow if we water it. In return, they also help us by providing us with oxygen. however, we can also be harmful to each other and the environment, for example: we can't hurt each other, or plant or animals by killing them or we can hurt insects by stepping on them. Therefore, organisms are helpful and harmful to each other.

At 298 K, the osmotic pressure of a glucose solution (C6H12O6 (aq)) is 12.1 atm. Calculate the freezing point of the solution. T

Anarel [89]

Answer: The freezing point of solution is -0.974°C

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

$\pi=iMRT$

where,

$\pi$ = osmotic pressure of the solution = 12.1 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

M = molarity of solute = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the solution = 298 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$12.1atm=1\times M\times 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\M=\frac{12.1}{1\times 0.0821\times 298}=0.495M$

This means that 0.495 moles of glucose is present in 1 L or 1000 mL of solution

To calculate the mass of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$

Density of solution = 1.034 g/mL

Volume of solution = 1000 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.034g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{1000mL}\\\\\text{Mass of solution}=(1.034g/mL\times 1000mL)=1034g$

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of glucose = 0.495 moles

Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.495mol=\frac{\text{Mass of glucose}}{180.16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of glucose}=(0.495mol\times 180.16g/mol)=89.18g$

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of pure solution and freezing point of solution.

The equation used to calculate depression in freezing point follows:

$\Delta T_f=\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}$

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

$\Delta T_f=iK_fm$

Or,

$\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

where,

Freezing point of pure solution = 0°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (For non-electrolytes)

$K_f$ = molal freezing point elevation constant = 1.86°C/m

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute (glucose) = 89.18 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute (glucose) = 180.16 g/mol

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (water) = [1034 - 89.18] g = 944.82 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0-\text{Freezing point of solution}=1\times 1.86^oC/m\times \frac{89.18\times 1000}{180.16g/mol\times 944.82}\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=-0.974^oC$

Hence, the freezing point of solution is -0.974°C

When 55.0 grams of metal at 75.0°C is added to 100. grams of water at 15.0°C, the temperature of the water rises to 18.7°C. Assu

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 0,50 J/gºC

Explanation:

Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings

(Q = m . C . ΔT)metal + (Q = m . C . ΔT)water = 0

Let's replace our values.

55g . C . (18,7ºC - 75ºC) + 100g . 4,184 J/g·°C . (18,7ºC - 15ºC) = 0

55g . C . -56,3 ºC + 418,4J/·°C . 3,7ºC = 0

-3096,5 gºC . C + 1548,08 J = 0

1548,08 J = 3096,5 gºC . C

1548,08 J / 3096,5 gºC = C = 0,50 J/gºC

Propane, the gas used in barbeque grills, is made of carbon and hydrogen. Will the atoms that make up propane form covalent bond

Masteriza [31]

Hydrocarbons are molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen. Due to carbon's unique bonding patterns, hydrocarbons can have single, double, or triple bonds between the carbon atoms. The names of hydrocarbons with single bonds end in "-ane," those with double bonds end in "-ene," and those with triple bonds end in "-yne". The bonding of hydrocarbons allows them to form rings or chains.

"One possibility is that the battle between the virus and your immune system can take as long as two weeks.

It could be the immune system holds the virus at bay,” said Tompkins.

Or, your immune system has to work so hard that after two weeks it’s inflamed and that’s what makes you feel bad.
