How do stomata help a plant maintain balance with their environment?

1 answer:

3 0

Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cells undergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis .

A solution is 40.0% by volume benzene (C6H6) in carbon tetrachloride at 20C. The vapor pressure of pure benzene at this temperat

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

84.30 mm Hg

Explanation:

In 100 cm³ of solution we have: 40 cm³ C6H6 and 60 cm³ CCl4. Given the densities we can calculate their masses and number of moles, and since by Raoult´s law

Ptotal = XAPºA + XBPºB

where XA= mol fraction =na/(na +nb) and PºA vapor pressure pure of pure component A

m C6H6 = 40 cm³ x 0.87865 g/cm³ = 35.146 g

mol C6H6 = 35.146 g/ 78.11 g/mol = 0.45 mol

mass CCl4 = 60 cm³ x 1.5940 g/cm³ = 95.640 g

mol CCl4 = 95.640 g / 153.82 g/mol = 0.62 mol

mol tot = 1.07

XC6H6 = 0.45/ 1.07 = 0.42 XCCl4 = 0.62/1.07 =0.58

Ptot (mmHg) = 0.42 x 74.61 + .58 x 91.32 = 84.30 mmHg

If oxygen with an electronegativity of 3.5 were to make a chemical bond with lithium, electronegativity of 1.0, what kind of bon

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Ionic.

Explanation:

Elements with higher electronegativity values are better at attracting electrons in a chemical bond.

A chemical bond is considered "ionic" if the electronegativity difference between the two bonding atoms is greater than $1.8$ .
Otherwise, this chemical bond is considered "covalent".

In this example, the difference between the electronegativity of oxygen and lithium is $3.5 - 1.0 = 2.5$ . Since $2.5 > 1.8$ , the bond between the two elements would likely be ionic.

It is possible to reach the same conclusion based on the fact that lithium is a metal while oxygen is a nonmetal. When metal elements react with non-metal elements, the product is typically an ionic compound- with ionic bonds between the atoms.
