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>

The reaction of glucose, c6h12o6, with oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water. what is the sum of the coefficients in the bala
Misha Larkins [42]

The balanced equation for the given reaction:

C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

So in the balanced equation the coefficients before glucose, oxygen, water and carbon dioxide are 1, 6, 6 and 6 respectively.

Therefore, the sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation

= 1 + 6 + 6 + 6

= 19

The correct answer is 19.

densk [106]
The correct answer is option 3. The IUPAC name is Iron(II) sulfide. It is the less stable amorphous form.  When this is powdered, it is pyrophoric or it ignites spontaneously in air. It readily reacts with hydrochloric acid producing hydrogen sulfide.

A compound with an empirical formula of C4H4O and a molar mass of 136 g/mol. What is the molecular formula of this compound?
fredd [130]

Answer:

C8H8O2

Explanation:

The molecular formula of a compound is simply a multiple of the empirical formula as shown below:

Molecular formula => [C4H4O]n

From the question given, we were told that molar mass of the compound is 136g/mol. This implies that:

[C4H4O]n = 136

Now, let us find the value of n in order to obtain the desired result. This is illustrated below:

[C4H4O]n = 136

[(12x4) + (4x1) + 16]n = 136

[48 + 4 + 16]n = 136

68n = 136

Divide both side by the coefficient of n i.e 68

n = 136/68

n = 2

Therefore the molecular formula is

=> [C4H4O]n

=> [C4H4O]2

=> C8H8O2
