Answer:

C. H2O diffuses in.

Explanation:

<em>The phospholipids-made synthetic vesicle in this case will act like a semi-permeable membrane while the solution in the interior lumen will be hypertonic to the surrounding pure water. </em>

<em>Hence, water molecules will diffuse into the lumen through the semi-permeable membrane because of the osmotic gradient that exist between the internal and the surrounding solution of the vesicle.</em>

Blocks on the periodic table will not list a(n):
Elis [28]

Blocks on the periodic table will not list a mass number of elements in this scenario.

<h3>What is Periodic table?</h3>

This table comprises of elements in order of their atomic number which determines their chemical properties.

It contains the atomic number but however doesn't contain the mass number of the elements.

Can someone good with chemistry help me?
Digiron [165]
As you go down group 7 the melting point of the elements will increase, this is because as you go down the group you are gaining an electron shell and the molecule will become bigger. This increase in size means that there will be an increase in the intermolecular forces as well.

So the order would be NF3, NBr3, NI3.

Hopefully this helps!

Write a balanced chemical equation for the standard formation reaction of solid sodium hydrogen carbonate nahco3 .
NNADVOKAT [17]
There are a number of methods of which we can form sodium bicarbonate. This compound is commonly known as baking soda. It can be prepared from the reaction of sodium hydroxide and carbonic acid. Carbonic acid in water dissociates into hydrogen ions and the bicarbonate ion while sodium hydroxide would ionize into sodium ions and hydroxide ions. With this, these ions would react and form the sodium bicarbonate salt and water. The chemical reaction would be expressed as follows:

NaOH + H2CO3 = H2O + NaHCO3

Sodium bicarbonate is used in cooking, as a toothpaste and as a cleaning substance.  Also, it is used in medical applications like for the preparation of the dialysate solution.
