Answer:

A hypertonic solution has increased solute, and a net movement of water outside causing the cell to shrink. A hypotonic solution has decreased solute concentration, and a net movement of water inside the cell, causing swelling or breakage.

Answer:

im not sure but I hope this helps

Explanation:

I believe the equivalents is just the moles reactant/moles limiting reactant

water has a denisty of 1 g/mL. 1 L is 1000 ml so there are 1000g/L.

the molar mass of water is 18g/mol if you use the Liters in the equation above you can find the number of grams present. divide this number you found by 18 to find the moles.

now take the amount of the other reactant given and divide it by its own molar mass. this will give you the number of moles of that reactant.

divide the moles of water by the moles of the reactant and that is the equivalent.

to find the normality you take this number and divide it by the number of liters.

Based on the diagram below, how much of the excess reactant is left over? *

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

3 of lunchmeat and 2 slices of cheese

Explanation:

From the question given,

Each sandwich contains:

2 bread + 3 lunch meat + 1 cheese.

Now, the limiting reactant is the slice of bread.

We can determine the leftover as follow:

1. For the lunchmeat.

From the simple equation above,

2 bread requires 3 lunchmeat.

Therefore, 6 bread will require = (6 x 3)/2 = 9 lunchmeat.

Lunchmeat given = 12

Lunchmeat required = 9

Leftover lunchmeat = 12 – 9 = 3

Therefore, 3 lunchmeat is leftover.

2. For cheese.

From the simple equation above,

2 bread requires 1 cheese.

Therefore, 6 bread will require = 6/2 = 3 cheese.

Cheese given = 5

Cheese required = 3

Leftover cheese = 5 – 3 = 2

Therefore, 2 cheese is leftover.

From the simple illustrations above,

3 lunchmeat and 2 cheese are leftover.

If the concentration of phosphate in the cytosol is 2.0 mM and the concentration of phosphate in the surrounding fluid is 0.1 mM

Allushta [10]

The correct option is C. The concentration of phosphate inside the cytosol is already greater than the concentration of phosphate in the surrounding fluid, yet, the cell still want to move more phosphate into the cell. To do this, energy is needed to move the phosphate ions against the concentration gradient, so the type of transportation requires is ACTIVE TRANSPORT.

Give regents and mechanism

Kryger [21]

Answer:

Reagents: 1) $BH_3$ 2) $H_2_O2$ , $OH^-$

Mechanism: Hydroboration

Explanation:

In this case, we have a hydration of alkenes reaction. But, in this example, we have an anti-Markovnikov reaction. In other words, the "OH" is added in the least substituted carbon. Therefore we have to choose an anti-Markovnikov reaction: "hydroboration".

The first step of this reaction is the addition of borane ( $BH_3$ ) to the double bond. Then in the second step, we have the deprotonation of the hydrogen peroxide, to obtain the peroxide anion. In the third step, the peroxide anion attacks the molecule produced in the first step to produce a complex compound in which we have a bond " $BH_2-O-OH$ ". In step number 4 we have the migration of the C-B bond to oxygen. Then in step number 5, we have the attack of $OH^-$ on the $O-BH_2$ to produce an alkoxide. Finally, the water molecule produce in step 2 will protonate the molecule to produce the alcohol.

See figure 1
