Answer:
In case of plants surface tension help to support the transpiration pull.
Explanation:
Surface tension is a force that hold the molecules in the surface to minimize the surface area.
During evaporation of excess amount of water from the stomata of leaves of plants by transpiration a surface tension is generated.
The generated surface tension helps to maintain the water column within the xylem tissue by the absorption of water from the soil by the roots.
answer: dispersed from the liquid so cold air can take its place
Answer:
Mass of water produced is 22.86 g.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of hydrogen = 2.56 g
Mass of oxygen = 20.32 g
Mass of water = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 20.32 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.635 mol
Number of moles of hydrogen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 2.56 g/ 2 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.28 mol
Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and hydrogen.
O₂ : H₂O
1 : 2
0.635 ; 2×0.635 = 1.27
H₂ : H₂O
2 : 2
1.28 : 1.28
The number of moles of water produced by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.
Mass of water produced:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.27 × 18 g/mol
Mass = 22.86 g
