4 0

Answer:

The answer is Facilitated Diffusion

Explanation:

Osmosis is most similar to facilitated diffusion.

Osmosis can be defined as : Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane, down a concentration gradient from a low concentrated solution into a more concentrated solution.

Facilitated diffusion is defined as: Facilitated diffusion is the flow of molecules requiring the aid of a protein, across a membrane, down a concentration gradient  from a low concentrated solution into a more concentrated one.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Demonstration 1 showed a chemical change because a new gaseous substance was formed, and demonstration 2 showed a physical change because liquid water became water vapor.

Explanation:

Chemical changes alter the chemical makeup of a subject, and a physical change only alters the appearance of a subject, not the chemical makeup.

g The decomposition reaction of A to B is a first-order reaction with a half-life of 2.42×103 seconds: A → 2B If the initial con
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

In 23.49 minutes the concentration of A to be 66.8% of the initial concentration.

Explanation:

The equation used to calculate the constant for first order kinetics:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}} .....(1)

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]} ......(2)

where,  

k = rate constant

t_{1/2} =Half life of the reaction = 2.42\times 10^3 s

t = time taken for decay process = ?

[A_o] = initial amount of the reactant = 0.163 M

[A] = amount left after time t =  66.8% of [A_o]

[A]=\frac{66.8}{100}\times 0.163 M=0.108884 M

k=\frac{0.693}{2.42\times 10^3 s}

t=\frac{2.303}{\frac{0.693}{2.42\times 10^3 s}}\log\frac{0.163 M}{0.108884 M}

t = 1,409.19 s

1 minute = 60 sec

t=\frac{1,409.19 }{60} min=23.49 min

In 23.49 minutes the concentration of A to be 66.8% of the initial concentration.

Which of these chemical formulas kci, xe, co2, or h2- represents both an element and a molecule?
Temka [501]
An element is a substance that can not be broken into simpler parts by chemical means. Elements are made up of atoms. A molecule is the smallest particle of an element or a compound that has the same properties as the element or the compound. A molecule is made up of two or more atoms . A substance may be an element and a molecule. In this case the answer is, H2 (hydrogen gas) which is a molecule with two atoms of hydrogen and an element.
