<h2>Active Transport </h2>

Explanation:

  • A cell uses energy for the movement of substances against a concentration gradient or an electrochemical gradient that maintains a balanced concentration of ions and molecules in living cells.
  • This transport of substances is known as Active transport mechanisms which are the basic function of the cell membranes.
  • The energy used is in the form of ATP.  
  • Active transport occurs when there is a difference in the concentration of particles on both sides.

Help me out please!!
malfutka [58]

Answer:6.48*10^{-2}

Explanation:

alright, dawg, lets get this bread. CHEMISTRY? OH YEAH I LOVE CHEMISTRY.

what is a mol? do you know who avogadro is? sounds like avocado. free shavocado. ok so you MUST REMEMBER THIS NUMBER PLEASE.

please remember this number and commit it to your memory: avogadros number

6.02 * 10^{23}

this is how much a mole is. you know how a pair is 2 and a dozen is 12? ok so a mole is 6.02 * 10^{23} it is confusing at first but hopefully this helps you to understand.

now that we understand this..... lets perform this calculation with a calculator

(3.90 * 10^{22}) / (6.02 * 10^{23})

notice i divide the question by the avogadros number to find out how many moles are in the number. ok but listen... it gets into a tough area here... because HOW ARE WE TO DIVIDE SUCH A HUMONGOUS NUMBER BY ANOTHER HUMONGOUS NUMBER?!?!?

its easy, its cake, just listen this is how you do it. only focus on the numbers NOT the 10 exponential ones. so just 3.90 and 6.02 ok? lets divide these two numbers 3.90 / 6.02 and we get 0.6478... how interesting... ok now lets deal with the exponents of 10. notice that we are DIVIDING these numbers so think of it as subtracting the exponents of ten.....    22 minus 23 equals -1

so we have 0.6478 * 10^{-1}

now this negative 1 thing is annoying so lets just make it to the power of 0

0.06478 * 10^{0}

and anything to the power of 0 just becomes 1.

0.06478

so this is our answer but keep in mind we need 3 sig figs. if we round then we get 0.0648

put this into scientific notation we get 6.48*10^{-2}

The following do not represent valid ground-state electron configurations for an atom either because they violate the Pauli excl
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

<em>For both cases the answer is C</em>

Explanation:  

We can see that the orbitals are not filled in the order of increasing energy and the Pauli exclusion principle is violated because it does not follow the correct order of the electron configuration; In the first exercise after the 2s2 orbital, the 2p2 orbital follows.

For the second exercise, you must start in order with level 1 and correctly filling each of the sublevels corresponding to each level until reaching level 7 and thus completing the desired number of electrons.

Try to rationalize the sign of ΔS∘rxn in each case.
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

a) decrease, gas

b) increase, gas

c) liquid

d) increase, solid

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. If the number of moles of gas increases from left to right in a reaction, the entropy of the system increases positively.

Similarly, when the number of liquid molecules remain constant, there could only be a very little increase in entropy.

However, solids have the least entropy and the entropy of a system decreases when a system yields solid products.

In an exothermic reaction, energy is blank the surroundings.
S_A_V [24]

Answer: released to; absorbed from

- In an exothermic reaction, energy is released to the surroundings.

- In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed from the surroundings.

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs spontaneously and brings about the release of energy to the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels hot as the reaction proceeds.

An endothermic reaction, on the other hand, does not occur spontaneously and proceed only when energy is absorbed from the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels cold as the reaction proceeds.
