<span>The answer is hypertonic. In osmosis, water
molecules move from a hypotonic solution to the hypertonic solution, through a
semipermeable membrane. This occurs until
both solutions become isotonic relative to each other. In osmosis, only
the movement of water molecules occurs since the ions are large enough to pass
through the pores of the semipermeable membrane,
in this case, the cell membrane. Due to
loss of water in the process of osmosis, the cells in the fingers of the swimmers
shrunk hence looked shriveled.</span>
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
Phase change is physical.
1) list givens and convert if necessary
C₁ = 3.50 mol/L
V₁ = 0.550 L
C₂ = ?
V₂ = 0.275 L
2) rearrange formula
3) solve
C₂ = 7.00 mol/L
Answer: A solution forms when the attractive _forces_ between the solute and solvent are _similar/higher_ in strength to the solvent-solvent and solute-solute attractions and are therefore able to replace them.
Explanation: Intermolecular forces between solute and solvent must be able to match or exceed the natural intramolecular forces between the solvent-solvent atoms/molecules and solute-solute atoms/molecules.
This is where the solubility law of 'like dissolves like (polar dissolves polar and likewise)' comes into play. Only polar compounds can form such attractive forces with fellow polar compounds and the same story goes for non-polar compounds.
