<span>The answer is hypertonic. In osmosis, water molecules move from a hypotonic solution to the hypertonic solution, through a semipermeable membrane. This occurs until both solutions become isotonic relative to each other.  In osmosis, only the movement of water molecules occurs since the ions are large enough to pass through the pores of the semipermeable membrane, in this case, the cell membrane. Due to loss of water in the process of osmosis, the cells in the fingers of the swimmers shrunk hence looked shriveled.</span>

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:mass = 11.42 \:\: grams

____________________________________

\large \tt Solution  \: :

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: Q = ms\Delta T

  • \textsf{Q = heat evolved/absorbed = 501 J}

  • \textsf{m = mass in gram = ?}

  • \textsf{s = specific heat = 0.45}

  • \textsf{ΔT = change in temp = 120 - 22.5 =97.5°C}

\large\textsf{Find m : }

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 501 = m \sdot(0.45) \sdot(97.5)

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  501 = m \sdot43.875

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: m =  \dfrac{501}{43.875}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: m  \approx11.42 \:  \: g

Dmitri mendeleev contribution to the periodic table.
Pepsi [2]

In 1871, a Russian Chemist, Dimitri Mendeleev, gave a useful scheme for classification of elements. He presented the first regular periodic table in which elements of similar chemical properties were arranged in eight vertical columns called groups. The horizontal rows of table were called periods. He arranged elements in ascending order of their  atomic masses and found that elements having similar chemical properties appeared at regular intervals. This observation was called Periodic Law.

In the reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone with sodium borohydride, the major product has the tert-butyl group in the equator
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Axial position

Explanation:

In the reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone with sodium borohydride, the major product has the tert-butyl group in the equatorial position and the alcohol in the axial position.

The reason for this is that, axial bonds are parallel to each other. If  substituents are larger than hydrogen, they experience a greater steric crowding in axial compared to the equatorial position. Therefore, many substituted cyclohexane compounds prefer a conformation in which the larger substituents are in equatorial position.

The half life of plutonium-239 (239pu, pu-239) is 24,100 years. How much plutonium will remain after 1000 years if the initial a
Anestetic [448]

The mass of plutonium that will remain after 1000 years if the initial amount is 5 g when the half life of plutonium-239 (239pu, pu-239) is 24,100 years is 2.5 g

The equation is Mr=Mi(1/2)^n

where n is the number of half-lives

Mr is the mass remaining after n half lives

Mi is the initial mass of the sample

To find n, the number of half-lives, divide the total time 1000 by the time of the half-life(24,100)

n=1000/24100=0.0414

So Mr=5x(1/2)^1=2.5 g

The mass remaining is 2.5 g

  • The half life is the time in which the concentration of a substance decreases to half of the initial value.
