Answer: A solution will be hypertonic to a cell if its solute concentration is higher than that inside the cell, and the solutes cannot cross the membrane. If a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, there will be a net flow of water into the cell, and the cell will gain volume.
Picture:
Meaning of hypertonic: (1): having a higher osmotic pressure than a particular fluid, typically a body fluid or intracellular fluid. (2) of or in a state of abnormally high muscle tone.
The mole fraction of KCl in the solution is 0.1051
calculation
mole fraction of KCl in solution = moles of KCl / total number of moles(moles of KCl +moles of H2O)
moles=mass/molar mass
mass of KCl=32.7g
molar mass of KCl= 39 +35.5
moles of KCl is therefore= 32.7g/74.5 g/mol=0.439 moles
find the moles of H2O= mass of H2O/molar mass
mass of H2O=100-32.7=67.3g
molar mass of H2O=( 1 x2) +16=18 g/mol
moles = 67.3/18 =3.739 moles
total moles=3.739+0.439=4.178 moles
mole fraction is therefore=0.439/4.178=0.1051
Answer:
ρ = 1.08 g/cm³
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Mass of the substance (m): 21.112 g
Volume of the substance (V): 19.5 cm³
Step 2: Calculate the density of the substance
The density (ρ) of a substance is equal to its mass divided by its volume.
ρ = m / V
ρ = 21.112 g / 19.5 cm³
ρ = 1.08 g/cm³
The density of the substance is 1.08 g/cm³.
The answer is B the flow of electrons through a substance
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>The carbon will have to travel in the form of CO2 from the atmosphere to a primary producer (green plant), from there to a primary consumer (herbivorous animal), and finally to a secondary consumer.</em>
The primary producer (a green plant) would fix the carbon in the CO2 to carbohydrate through a process known as photosynthesis. The equation of the process is as shown below:
The carbon, now in the form of carbohydrate, would then be picked up by an animal (a primary consumer) that feeds on the green plant. The carbon would eventually get into a secondary consumer when the secondary consumer feeds on the primary consumer that fed on the green plant.
