In lipid bilayers, there is an order-to-disorder transition similar to the melting of a crystal. Comparing a lipid bilayer that

is made up mostly of palmitoleic acid to one made up mostly of palmitic acid, which would have a higher melting transition temperature

Answer:

The lipid bilayer made up of Palmitic acid will have a higher melting transition temperature

Explanation:

The one with a higher melting transition temperature is the lipid layer with a higher melting temperature

Melting temperature of palmitoleic acid = -0.5°C

Melting temperature of palmitic acid = 62.9°C

Hence the lipid bilayer made up of Palmitic acid will have a higher melting transition temperature

Which of the following would increase the amount to dissolve a solid solute?
AVprozaik [17]

By stirring and increasing temperature, there is an increase in dissolving capacity of the solid solute.

<u>Explanation:</u>

If a solute is added to the solution, it doesn't get dissolve easily then we have to increase the temperature, which in turn increases the movement of the solvent (may be water) and the solute particles, thus increases the dissolving power of the solid solute. One more way is by constant stirring, that is by making more contact among the solvent as well as the solute particles there by increasing the solubility of solid solute.

A disk of radius 2.0 cm has a surface charge density of 6.3 μC/m2 on its upper face. What is the magnitude of the electric field
maksim [4K]

Answer:

the electric field at Z = 12 cm is E =   9.68 × 10³ N/C = 9.68 kN/C

Explanation:

Given: radius of disk, R = 2.0 cm = 2 × 10⁻² cm, surface charge density,σ = 6.3 μC/m² = 6.3 × 10⁻⁶ C/m², distance on central axis, z = 12 cm = 12 × 10⁻² cm.

The electric field, E at a point on the central axis of a charged disk is given by E = σ/ε₀(1 - \frac{z}{\sqrt{z^{2} + R^{2} }  })

Substituting the values into the equation, it becomes

E = σ/ε₀(1 - \frac{z}{\sqrt{z^{2} + R^{2} }  }) = 6.3 × 10⁻⁶/8.854 × 10⁻¹²(1 - \frac{0.12}{\sqrt{0.12^{2} + 0.02^{2} } }) = 7.12 × 10⁵(1 - \frac{0.12}{0.1216}) = 7.12 × 10⁵(1 - 0.9864) = 7.12 × 10⁵ × 0.0136 = 0.0968 × 10⁵ = 9.68 × 10³ N/C = 9.68 kN/C

Therefore, the electric field at Z = 12 cm is E =   9.68 × 10³ N/C = 9.68 kN/C

The molecules of a substance must have what characteristics in order to be flexible
Goryan [66]
Answer:
            <span>The molecules of a substance which must have the <u>a</u></span><u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.

Explanation:
                   Those substances are said to be flexible which can be bent without breaking. There are many substances which are hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.
