Why is 1g of cobalt oxide nanoparticles a better catalyst than 1g of cobalt oxide powder?

Chemistry
1 answer:
jeka943 years ago
3 0

Answer;

It is because nano particles have a large surface area compared to the powder.

Explanation;

-The rate of a chemical reaction can be raised by increasing the surface area of a solid reactant. This is done by cutting the substance into small pieces, or by grinding it into a powder.

-If the surface area of a reactant is increased, it means more particles are exposed to the other reactant.

Why would the cell membrane shrink when the cells were placed in the 4% salt solution?
Elanso [62]
In a salt solution, the water potential is lower than that in the cell. In this case, water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential by osmosis. Which where water molecules is now flowing out of the cell to the salt solution. Because the cell lose so much water that it now shrinks.
Osmosis is where water molecules move down the water potential gradient through a semi permeable membrane, which is the cell membrane in this case.
