What would happen if a cell membrane let too much water into a cell?

Chemistry

Answer:

<u>Animal Cell</u>

  • When water moves into an animal cell (e.g. a red blood cell), the cell membrane stretches and the cell gets bigger. If this continues, the cell membrane will burst – this is called lysis.

<u>Plant Cell</u>

  • When too much water moves out of a plant cell the cell contents shrink. This pulls the cell membrane away from the cell wall. A plasmolyzed cell is unlikely to survive.

When water moves into a plant cell, the vacuole gets bigger, pushing the cell membrane against the cell wall. ... The pressure created by the cell wall stops too much water entering and prevents cell lysis. If plants do not receive enough water the cells cannot remain turgid and the plant wilts.

In the determination of iron in an ore, the ore (mostly Fe2O3) is first dissolved in HCl(aq). A slight excess of Sn2 is added to
katovenus [111]

Answer:

2Fe⁺³ + Sn₂ → 2Fe⁺² + 2Sn⁺²

Explanation:

A redox reaction occurs between a compound that loses electrons and others that gain an electron. The first is being oxidized, and the other is being reduced.

In this situation, in the compound Fe₂O₃, the iron, has an oxidation number equal to +3, so it's Fe⁺³, and it will gain 1 electron to become Fe⁺². Because it was first dissolved in HCl, we must use the ion at the equation. The other compound Sn₂ will be oxidized to Sn⁺², so it will need to lose 2 electrons.

So, it will be necessary 2 Fe⁺³ for this reaction happen:

2Fe⁺³ + Sn₂ → 2Fe⁺² + 2Sn⁺²

What is the total number of oxygen atoms on the right-hand side of this chemical equation?
vivado [14]

The chemical equation is

Cu(s) +4HNO3(aq) ⇒ Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Answer:

12

Explanation:

In the right hand side of the equation, there are three compound which contains O2, which are;

Cu(NO3)2 , number of oxygen atoms =3*2 =6

2NO2, number of oxygen atoms = 2*2=4

2H2O, number of oxygen atoms =2*1=2

Total number of oxygen atoms on the right side of equation = 6+4+2 =12
