melomori [17]

Question:

Which of the following statements correctly describe(s) the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels? Select all that apply.

A)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is facilitated by the Na+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.

B)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane.

C)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the K+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.

D)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient is larger for Na+ than for K+.

Answer:

"The concentration gradient and the electro-chemical gradient" describes  the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels

Explanation:

The Na ions diffusion inside the cell is facilitated by the concentration gradient of the Na ions which is present across the plasma membrane. Hence, the diffusion of the K ions which is present outside the cell and will be impeded due to the electrical gradient which is present near the plasma membrane. Thus, the electro-chemical gradient is greater as compared to the Na ion than that of the K ion.

The combustion of 0.590 g of benzoic acid (ΔHcomb = 3,228 kJ/mol; MW = 122.12 g/mol) in a bomb calorimeter increased the tempera
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

2.943 °C temperature change from the combustion of the glucose has been taken place.

Explanation:

Heat released on combustion of Benzoic acid; :

Enthaply of combustion of benzoic acid = 3,228 kJ/mol  

Mass of benzoic acid = 0.590 g

Moles of benzoic acid = \frac{0.590 g}{122.12 g/mol}=0.004831 mol

Energy released by 0.004831 moles of benzoic acid on combustion:

Q=3,228 kJ/mol \times 0.004831 mol=15.5955 kJ=15,595.5 J

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C  

Change in temperature of the calorimeter = ΔT = 2.125°C

Q=C\times \Delta T

15,595.5 J=C\times 2.125^oC

C=7,339.05 J/^oC

Heat released on combustion of Glucose: :

Enthaply of combustion of glucose= 2,780 kJ/mol.

Mass of glucose=1.400 g

Moles of glucose =\frac{1.400 g}{180.16 g/mol}=0.007771 mol

Energy released by the 0.007771 moles of calorimeter  combustion:

Q'=2,780 kJ/mol \times 0.007771 mol=21.6030 kJ=21,603.01 J

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C (calculated above)

Change in temperature of the calorimeter on combustion of glucose = ΔT'

Q'=C\times \Delta T'

21,603.01 J=7,339.05 J/^oC\times \Delta T'

\Delta T'=2.943^oC

2.943 °C temperature change from the combustion of the glucose has been taken place.

As a science major, you are assigned to the "Atomic Dorm" at college. The first floor has one suite with one bedroom that has a
lidiya [134]

Explanation:

A.

The first student will be on the lower bunk on the first floor because 1. They want on the lowest available floor and 2. They want to be in a lower bunk if available.

B.

7 students are in the TOP bunks because 1. They want on the lowest available floor and 2. They want to be in a lower bunk if available. Therefore, all the rooms up till the third floor (Remember, third floor has 3 suites), so the first floor is filled - 1 person on the top bunk, 2 floor is filled- 4 persons and the third floor; the first suite is filled - 1 person and the second suite is a little partially filled- 1 person.

C.

Following the criteria 1, 2 and 3, the 21st student occupies the third suite on the third floor because all the floors (1 and 2) are occupied so the third suite on the third floor is still vacant.

D.

From the criteria there are therefore 10 persons at the TOP bunk. All the rooms up till the third floor are filled, so the first floor is filled - 1 person on the top bunk, second floor is filled (2 suites) - 4 persons and the third floor; the first suite and second suite is filled - 4 persons; the thirs suite has 6 persons present so 1 person is at the top bunk.

Of the different states of matter listed below, which is typically the most dense?
stiv31 [10]
The correct answer is option B. The most dense phase of matter is the solid phase and the least dense are gases. However, there is an exception. Water is the exception. Solid water or ice is less dense than the liquid phase therefore it floats on liquid water.
