<h3>Types of Osmosis</h3>

Osmosis is of two types:

Endosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypotonic solution, the solvent molecules move inside the cell and the cell becomes turgid or undergoes deplasmolysis. This is known as endosmosis.

Exosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypertonic solution, the solvent molecules move outside the cell and the cell becomes flaccid or undergoes plasmolysis. This is known as exosmosis.

There are some variations or types of osmosis on the basis of the direction of the movement of solvent molecules.

  • Reverse osmosis is a method of separation that is used to force a solvent through a semi-permeable membrane resulting in solute molecules on one side and solvent molecules on the other side.

  • Reverse osmosis is different than the forward osmosis in that reverse osmosis utilized hydraulic pressure to force the solvent against the osmotic pressure.

  • Forward osmosis is another variation of osmosis where the osmotic pressure gradient is used to induce the flow of water from the sample solution to separate the solutes.

  • Forward osmosis uses a draw solution with a higher concentration of solute, which extracts the solvent molecules from the sample solution; thus, resulting in the separation of solute and solvent in the sample solution.

  • Endosmosis is the movement of water into the cell which occurs when a cell is placed in a solution having a higher concentration of water than the cell.

  • Exosmosis is the movement of water out of the cell which occurs when a cell is placed in a solution having a higher concentration of solute than the cell.

Is this the correct procedure for cleaning volumetric glassware prior to making a measurement: first, rinse with tap water. Seco
Bogdan [553]

The steps to be followed while cleaning volumetric glassware are:

1. Remnants from the previous measurements are wiped off with the help of paper towel.

2. The glassware is then soaked overnight in warm soap solution.

3. Then before rinsing with tap water, the glassware are scrubbed with an appropriate brush.

4. After scrubbing, the glassware is rinsed thoroughly with tap water in order to make sure there are no traces of soap solution.

5. The glassware is then rinsed with de-ionized water and finally with the solution that would be used for the volumetric measurement.

Gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s2, and gravity on the Moon is 1.6 m/s2.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Mass is the same but it weights 64 Newtons

Explanation:

First of Mass is the same in any sort of gravity. Now let's calculate weight

W = MG

where W = Weight

M = Mass

G = Gravity

W = (40kg)(1.6)

W = 64

Sorry for the spelling mistakes, hope this helps

Which family on the periodic table has a filled outer energy level?
Ede4ka [16]

The family on the periodic table that has a filled outer energy level is VIIIA. The answer is letter D. They are also called the noble gases or inert gases. They are virtually unreactive towards other elements or compounds. They are found in trace amounts in the atmosphere. Their elemental form at room temperature is colorless, odorless and monatomic gases. They also have full octet of eight valence electrons in their highest orbitals so they have a very little tendency to gain or lose electrons to form ions or share electrons with other elements in covalent bonds.
