You have run an experiment studying the effects of the molecular weight of a compound on the rate of diffusion in agar. Compound

X has a molecular weight of 25.3 g/mol and compound Y has a molecular mass of 156.2 g/mol. On two separate agar plates, 0.1 g of each substance were transferred and allowed to diffuse for 2 hours. The results below were obtained. Use this information about this situation to answer the following three questions.
a. What was the independent variable in this experiment?
b. What was the independent variable in this experiment?
c. List two controls that were held constant for this experiment or that you would hold constant for this experiment

Answer:

A) Molecular weight

B) Rate of diffusion

C) Agar plates

Time of diffusion

Explanation:

A) The independent variable is the molecular weight because it is the variable that the researcher changes at will to aid his research. It doesn't depend on other variables.

B) The dependent variable is "Rate of diffusion because it depends on the molecular weight of the compound.

C) A control variable is one that would be held constant throughout the research.

In this case, the agar plates and the time of 2 hours diffusion remain the same throughout.

Why the iron nail not rusted on a chemical to absorb water vapour​
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Thus there was no accumulation of ions on the nails, as the dissolved gases were already removed, hence no rust formation. In test tube C, a chemical was added to absorb the water vapour. We know that rust formation takes place when a metal is exposed to water vapour.

What does buffer do?? (Chemistry)​
pogonyaev
A buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components. It is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, thus maintaining the pH of the solution relatively stable. This is important for processes and/or reactions which require specific and stable pH ranges. Buffer solutions have a working pH range and capacity which dictate how much acid/base can be neutralized before pH changes, and the amount by which it will change.

Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:The solid is less dense than the liquid

Explanation:

Ice is less dense than water because of the crevices or spaces in the lattice structure of ice. Liquid water has a much greater density than solid water because its molecules are more compactly packed than in ice. Ice has large spaces between the hydrogen bonded water molecules hence less density than the liquid. Being less dense than !liquid water, it floats on water.
