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.

Calculate the pH of the following:
Brums [2.3K]

The pH can be defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution.

<h3>What is the pH?</h3>

What we call the pH can be defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution. We are aware that we can use the relation [H+]  [OH-]  = 1 * 10^-14 to handle the enormity of this problem.

Now, let us go about solving the problems;

1. pH = -log(1 x 10-7) = 7

2.  [H+]=  1 * 10^-14/ 1 x 10^-3

pH =  -log(  1 * 10^-11)

pH = 11

3. pH = -log( 1 x 10^-2)

pH = 2

4. pH = -log(  1 x 10^-10)

pH = 10

5.  [H+]=  1 * 10^-14/ 1 x 10^-8

[H+]=  1 * 10^-6

pH = 6

What is the total pressure exerted by a mixture of 48.0 grams of CH4 and 56.0 grams of
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The pressure of the gas is obtained as 48 atm.

<h3>What is the total pressure?</h3>

Now we know that;

Number of moles of CH4 = 48.0 grams /16 g/mol = 3 moles

Number of moles of H2 =  56.0 grams/2 g/mol = 28 moles

Total number of moles present = 3 moles + 28 moles = 31 moles

Using;

PV =nRT

P = total pressure

V = total volume

n = total number of moles

R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = nRT/V

P = 31 * 0.082 * 286/15

P = 48 atm
