Water moves from an area of higher water potential (aka. "more water" in simple language) to an area of lower water potential (aka. "less water" in simple language).
For A, cells in carrots have water stored in their cytoplasm, where many soluble substances may be found (e.g. sodium ions). On the other hand, pure water has no other soluble substances other than the water molecules (I.e. H2O). Pure water will thus have a higher water potential as compared to the water in carrot cells, and so, water will move from pure water into the carrot cells via osmosis down a concentration gradient.
B. Corn syrup is water that has high concentrations of sugars, thus it is very likely to have a lower water potential than the cells of carrots. Water will move from within the cells of carrots and out to the corn syrup, down a concentration gradient.
C. The water in carrot cells will stay the same, since carrot cells have the same water potential as the surrounding solution which has the same water potential as cytoplasm.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: varriable
Explanation:meaning one element, feature or factor able to change
Answer is: pH of solution is 5,17.
Kb(NH₃) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.
c(NH₄Cl) = 0,084 M = 0,084 mol/L.
Chemical reaction: NH₄⁺ + H₂O → NH₃ + H₃O⁺.
Ka · Kb = 10⁻¹⁴.
Ka(NH₄⁺) = 10⁻¹⁴ ÷ 1,8·10⁻⁵.
Ka(NH₄⁺) = 5,55·10⁻¹⁰.
[H₃O⁺] = [NH₃] = x.
Ka(NH₄⁺) = [H₃O⁺] · [NH₃] ÷ [NH₄⁺].
5,55·10⁻¹⁰ = x² ÷ (0,084 M - x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [H₃O⁺] = 6,8·10⁻⁶ M.
pH = -log[H₃O⁺].
pH = -log(6,8·10⁻⁶ M) = 5,17.
Answer:
1.26*10²³ particles are present in 12.47 grams of NaCl
Explanation:
Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023 * 10²³ particles per mole. The Avogadro number applies to any substance.
So, first of all you must know the amount of moles that represent 12.47 grams of NaCl. For that it is necessary to know the molar mass.
You know:
- Na: 23 g/mole
- Cl: 35.45 g/mole
So the molar mass of NaCl is: 23 g/mole + 35.45 g/mole= 58.45 g/mole
Now you apply a rule of three as follows: if 58.45 grams are present in 1 mole of NaCl, 12.47 grams in how many moles will they be?
moles= 0.21
You apply a rule of three again, knowing Avogadro's number: if in 1 mole of NaCl there are 6,023 * 10²³ particles, in 0.21 moles how many particles are there?
number of particles= 1.26*10²³
<u><em>1.26*10²³ particles are present in 12.47 grams of NaCl</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
