Chemical reactions are a change in substance while nuclear is destruction
Water moves from an area of higher water potential (aka. "more water" in simple language) to an area of lower water potential (aka. "less water" in simple language).
For A, cells in carrots have water stored in their cytoplasm, where many soluble substances may be found (e.g. sodium ions). On the other hand, pure water has no other soluble substances other than the water molecules (I.e. H2O). Pure water will thus have a higher water potential as compared to the water in carrot cells, and so, water will move from pure water into the carrot cells via osmosis down a concentration gradient.
B. Corn syrup is water that has high concentrations of sugars, thus it is very likely to have a lower water potential than the cells of carrots. Water will move from within the cells of carrots and out to the corn syrup, down a concentration gradient.
C. The water in carrot cells will stay the same, since carrot cells have the same water potential as the surrounding solution which has the same water potential as cytoplasm.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
= 15.51 mL
Explanation:
Here's is the reaction:
2HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(s)+O₂(g)
In this reaction 2mol HgO = 1mol O₂
The molecular weight of HgO = 216.59g
so, 3.0g HgO = 3.0g x 1.00molHgO/216.59gHgO
= 0.0138511 molHgO
The amount of Oxygen follows:
0.0138511 molHgOx1/2= 0.00692555 mol O₂
Now, volume of 1 any gas = 22400mL
so, 0.00692555 mol O₂ x22400mLO₂/1mol O₂
= 15.513232mL O₂
