A scientist performs an experiment in which they create an artificial cell with a selectively permeable membrane through which o

nly water can pass. They inject a 5 M solution of glucose into the cell and then place the cell into a beaker of water. After an hour, what effect do you expect to observe?

Answer:

Water moves into the cell

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the cell is high in glucose and placed in a glass filled with water. This cell has a semi permeable membrane that allows only water to pass through, as the concentration of water within the cell is low, the cell will attempt to strike a balance with the medium it is inserted into. For this reason, what is likely to happen is the passage of water from the most concentrated to the least concentrated medium, that is, the water will pass from the cup to the cell.

water moves into the cell through osmosis.during osmosis water moves from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration of solute.the glucose introduced into the cell makes it more concentrated.

In this case the cell is hypertonic and water would enter into the cell through the semi permeable membrane.this membrane allows water to pass through but not glucose.this movement of water into the cell causes the cell to become turgid.

Which of the following best describes weight?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

What best describes the concept of weight is the force on an object due to its mass and gravity.

Explanation:

Weight is the force with which gravity pulls a body or object towards the earth. It is a physical unit that involves both the force of gravity and the mass that an object has.

In general, the terms mass and weight are different, being the mass a characteristic of the body -without influence of other factors- and the weight is the force with which the gravity pushes the mass of that same body.

Regarding the other options:

  • <em>The amount of space an object takes up , corresponds to the volume of a body.</em>
  • <em>The amount of matter in an object , corresponds to the mass.</em>
  • <em>The force on an object due to its speed and location, is related to the movement of a body.</em>

If 3.0 moles of x and 4.0 moles of y react according to the hypothetical reaction below, how many moles of the excess reactant w
Lesechka [4]
Firstly the limiting reactant should be identified. Limiting reactant is the reactant that is in limited supply, the amount of product formed depends on the moles present of the limiting reactant.

the stoichiometry of x to y = 1:2
1 mole of x reacts with 2 moles of y
if x is the limiting reactant, there are 3 moles of x, then 6 moles of y should react, however there are only 4 moles of y. Therefore y is the limiting reactant and x is in excess.
4 moles of y reacts with 2 moles of x 
since there are 3 moles of x initially and only 2 moles are used up, excess amount of x is 1 mol thats in excess.
