Compare and contrast diffusion and osmosis. Include at least one similarity and one difference between the two processes.

Chemistry

Softa [21]3 years ago

Osmosis is the diffusion of water <span>across a semipermeable membrane (usually cell membrane) from a region of low solute concentration to a more concentrated solution so it can reach equilibrium (balance). 

D</span>iffusion is <span>a spontaneous movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Both results in particles moving and help balance out the concentrations.
Also, in osmosis, the water molecules are moving. In diffusion, it is the solutes moving.

I hope this helps and explains well.</span>

To what volume would you need to dilute 200 mL of a 5.85M solution of Ca(OH)2 to make it a 1.95M solution?
Blizzard [7]

Answer: 600 mL

Explanation:

Given that;

M₁ = 5.85 m

M₂ = 1.95 m

V₁ = 200 mL

V₂ = ?

Now from the dilution law;

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

so we substitute

5.85 × 200 = 1.95 × V₂

1170 = 1.95V₂

V₂ = 1170 / 1.95

V₂ = 600 mL

Therefore final volume is 600 mL

Density of a piece of wood that has a measurement of 24 cm3 and 768 g
Brut [27]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 32 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 768 g

volume = 24 cm³

We have

density =  \frac{768}{24}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>32 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
