Answer:
- What distinguish a solution in general from an aqueous solution is the solvent. A solution in general may contain any solvent, which may be solid, liquid or gas, while an aqueous solution is formed with water as solvent.
Explanation:
A solution in general is a homogeneous mixture in which a substance, named solute, is dissolved, in other substance, name solvent.
Solutions may be in solid, liquid or gas state. There are many kind of solvents. Usually, in a lab you work with liquid solutions. Some liquid solvents are: ethanol, glycerin, hexane, benzene, and water, among many others.
Aqueous solution is a solution where the solvent is water. Of course, the solute may be any one: NaCl, sugar, ethanol, an acid, a base, a salt.
What distinguish a solution in general and an aqueous solution is the solvent.
D) basic ions contain some H+ ions
Answer:
The rusting of iron is spontaneous at low temperatures.
Explanation:
The given chemical reaction is:
4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ----> 2Fe2O3(s) [rust]
The rusting of iron is a chemical reaction in which iron reacts with oxygen in presence of moisture and forms iron oxide.
This reaction takes place in a faster rate when there is low temperatures in the atmosphere.
When temperature is low, the moisture in the atmosphere is more and hence, rate of rusting is more.
Answer:
B. Ca2+ import into the ER because it has the steeper concentration gradient
Explanation:
ΔGt = RT㏑(C₂/C₁)
where ΔGt is the free energy change for transport; R = 8.315 J/mol; T = 298 K; C₂/C₁ is ratio of concentrations inside and outside each organelle.
For Ca²⁺ import
ΔGt = 8.315 J/mol * 298 K * ㏑(10⁻³/10⁻⁷)
ΔGt= 3.42 kJ/mol
For H⁺ import
ΔGt = 8.315 J/mol * 298 K * ㏑ (10⁻⁴/10⁻⁷)
ΔGt = 2.73 kJ/mol
From the above values, ΔGt is greater for Ca²⁺ import because it has a steeper concentration gradient
I believe that the answer is A i could be wrong though.
