The answer is the second option. Lipids make effective cell membranes in living cells because lipids (fats) are not soluble in water. This means that lipids and water do not mix... This lipid bilayer helps to protect the cell.
Answer:
The protons inside an atom's nucleus help bind the nucleus together. They also attract the negatively charged electrons, and keep them in orbit around the nucleus. The number of protons in an atom's nucleus determines which chemical element it is.
Answer:
= 0.134; 
= 0.866
The partial pressure of isopropanol = 34.04 Torr; The partial pressure of propanol = 5.26 Torr
Explanation:
For each of the solutions:
mole fraction of isopropanol (
) = 1 - mole fraction of propanol (
).
Given: mole fraction of propanol = 0.247. Thus, the mole fraction of isopropanol = 1 - 0.247 = 0.753.
Furthermole, the partial pressure of isopropanol = *vapor pressure of isopropanol = 0.753*45.2 Torr = 34.04 Torr
The partial pressure of propanol = *vapor pressure of propanol = 0.247*20.9 Torr = 5.16 Torr
Similarly,
In the vapor phase,
The mole fraction of propanol () = 
Where, 
is the partial pressure of propanol and 
is the partial pressure of isopropanol.
Therefore,
= 5.26/(34.04+5.16) = 0.134
= 1 - 0.134 = 0.866
Answer: Fire requires oxygen to burn. Water "smothers" fire and prevents it from acquiring more oxygen. Fire also requires heat, which cool water may prevent/remove.
Answer:
1. The electronic configuration of X is: 1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
2. The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
3. The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given as: XY
Explanation:
For X to loss two electrons, it means X is a group 2 element. X can be any element in group 2. The electronic configuration of X is:
1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
To get the electronic configuration of the anion of element Y, let us find the configuration of element Y. This is done as follows:
Y receives two electrons from X to complete its octet. Therefore Y is a group 6 element. The electronic configuration of Y is given below
1s2 2s2 2p4
The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given below :
X^2+ + Y^2- —> XY
Their valency will cancel out thus forming XY
