Why must the red blood cells and the solution in the beaker be isotonic?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lesantik [10]3 years ago
5 0

If a cell is placed in an isotonic solution, there will be no net flow of water into or out of the cell, and the cell's volume will remain stable. If the solute concentration outside the cell is the same as inside the cell, and the solutes cannot cross the membrane, then that solution is isotonic to the cell.

One application of Hess's Law (which works for ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG) is calculating the overall energy of a reaction using standard en
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The standard change in free energy for the reaction =  - 437.5 kj/mole

Explanation:

The standard change in free energy for the reaction:

                              4 KClO₃ (s) → 3 KClO₄(s) + KCl(s)

Given that   ΔGf(KClO3(s)) = -290.9 kJ/mol;

                    ΔGf(KClO4(s)) = -300.4 kJ/mol;

                    ΔGf(KCl(s)) = -409 kJ/mol

According to Hess's law

ΔGr (Free energy change of reaction)= ∑(Product free energy - reactant free energy)

               ⇒ ΔGr⁰ = {3 x (-300.4) + (-409)} - {3 x (- 290.9)}

                            = - 901.2 - 409 + 872.7

                            =  - 437.5 kj/mole

Explain what makes a covalently bonded molecule polar. Use the molecules of CH4 and CH3F as examples in your explanation.
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The magnitude of electronegativity difference between atoms in a bond determines whether that bond will be polar or not.

If the electronegativity difference between atoms in a bond is about 1.7, the bond is ionic. If the electronegativity difference is greater than 0.4 and less than 1.7, the bond will have a polar covalent character. Lastly, if the electronegativity difference between the bond is less than or equal to 0.4, the covalent bond is non polar.

The electronegativity difference between carbon and hydrogen is about 0.4 which corresponds to a nonpolar covalent bond hence the molecule is nonpolar.

The electronegativity difference between carbon and fluorine is about 1.5 indicating a highly polar bond. This gives CH3F an overall dipole moment thereby making the molecule polar.

What are the two species in highest concentration in a 0.1 M solution of lactic acid (CH3CH(OH)C00H), (Ka
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

1.4 × 10^-4.

Explanation:

C3H6O3 + H2O <======> C3H5O3^- + H3O^+ ------------------------------------------(1).

So, from the question above we are given the following parameters or data which is going to help in solving this particular Question/problem;

=>concentration of the solution of lactic acid (CH3CH(OH)C00H) = 0.1 M and pH = 2.44.

Therefore, the concentration of the hydrogen ion[H^+} can be determined from the pH formula given below;

pH = - log { H^+}.

2.44 = - log { H^+}.

Therefore, {H^+} = 0.0036 M.

From the equation (1) given above, we have that the ratio for the equilibrium reaction is 1 : 1 : 1 :1. Therefore, molarity of C3H5O3^- = 0.0036 M and the molarity of C3H6O3 =( 0.1 - 0.0036 M) = 0.0964 M at equilibrium.

Hence, ka = {C3H5O3^-} { H3O^+} /{C3H6O3} = ( 0.0036 M)^2 /(0.0964 M) = 1.4 × 10^-4.

44. Convert the following. Express your answers in
professor190 [17]

Answer:

A =  0.75 ×10² KJ.

B = 3.9 ×10³ dg

C = 0.22 × 10² μl.

Explanation:

A =  7.5 ×10⁴ j to kilo joules

7.5 ×10⁴ / 1000 = 0.75 ×10² KJ.

Joule is the smaller unit while kilo joule is the larger unit. One kilo joule equals to the thousand joule that's why we will divide the given value by 1000 in order to convert into KJ.

B = 3.9 ×10⁵ mg to decigrams.

3.9 ×10⁵ / 100 = 3.9 ×10³ dg

Decigram is larger unit while milligram is smaller unit. One decigram is equal to the 100 milligram. In order to convert the given value into  decigram we have to divide the value by 100.

C = 2.21 ×10⁻⁴ dL to micorliters

2.21 ×10⁻⁴ ×10⁵ = 0.22 × 10² μl.

Deciliter is bigger unit then micro liter . One deciliter equals to the 100000 micro liters. In order to convert the dL into micro liter we have to multiply the given value with 100000.
