Answer:

3. Tails of phospholipids are hydrophobic.

Explanation:

According to the fluid mosaic model, the plasma or cell membrane contains components such as: proteins, phospholipids etc. The phospholipid forms a layer called PHOSPHOLIPID LAYER, which comprises of a phosphate head and a fatty acid (lipid) tail.

The phosphate head is HYDROPHILIC i.e. water-logging while the fatty acid/lipid tail is HYDROPHOBIC i.e. water-fearing. Hence, according to this question, it is TRUE that the tails of phospholipids are hydrophobic.

Note: Phospholipid layer, which are selectively-permeable i.e do not allow the passage of molecules, allows the passage/diffusion of small molecules like oxygen gas.

What is the ph of the solution prepared by dissolving 0.927 mol hcl in enough water to make a 150 l aqueous solution?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is pH = 2.2

Explanation:

Data

pH = ?

moles of HCl = 0.927

volume = 150 l

Process

1.- Calculate the Molar concentration of HCl

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = 0.927 / 150

              = 0.00618

2.- Calculate the pH

pH = -log [HCl]

Substitution

pH = -log [0.00618]

Result

pH = 2.2
