Consider two solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane, as shown in the illustration to the right. The membrane allows the

passage of small molecules and ions, but not large molecules like polysaccharides or proteins. Solution A contains a 10% solution composed
of glucose and the protein albumin dissolved in water.
Solution B contains a 5% solution of NaCl in water. Indicate whether each substance in the system would flow into Solution A, Solution B, or neither.

1. Water
2. NaCl
3. glucose
4. Albumin
5. Glucose

Answer:

The correct movement would be -

1. Water  - into solution A.

2. NaCl  - into solution A.

3. glucose  - into Solution B.

4. Albumin  - neither.

Explanation:

All the substances are separated by the semipermeable membrane and the semipermeable membrane allows the only small molecule to pass through it. So the movement of the given substance would be -

1. Water  - into solution A.

Water molecules are small and can easily pass through the semipermeable membrane as it is given that the solution b has low solute concentration and solution A has high solute concentration. It is known that the movement of the solvent always takes place from low solute concentration to high so the movement of water will be into solution A.

2. NaCl  - into solution A.

The movement of small ionic molecule NaCl is always from high to low concentration as it is given that solution B has high concentration than solution A so movement will take place into solution A.

3. glucose  - into Solution B.

It is also a small molecule and moves from the high glucose region to the low glucose concentration region, in solution A the concentration of glucose is high than solution B so movement would be into solution B.

4. Albumin  - neither.

Albumin is a protein which is macromolecule and large in size to pass through the semipermeable membrane so, albumin move neither solution A nor solution B.

If a solution contains 3 moles/liter of sodium chloride (nacl, made of sodium ions and chloride ions), what is the osmolarity of
valkas [14]

<u>Answer:</u> Osmolarity of the sodium chloride solution is 18 Osmol/L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Osmolarity is defined as the the concentration of the solution which is expressed as the total number of solution particles present in one liter of solvent.

We are given the molarity of the solution which is 3mol/L and to convert it into osmolarity, we will multiply the number of osmoles that are produced by the solute.

Osmole is defined as the particles that contribute to the osmotic pressure of a solution.

The solute given here is sodium chloride (NaCl). Number of osmoles can be determined by the dissociation of this solvent into ions.

The equation given by the dissociation of NaCl:

NaCl\rightarrow Na^++Cl^-

1 mole of sodium chloride produces 2 moles of ions.

So, 3 moles of sodium chloride will produce = (3 × 2) = 6 moles of ions.

Hence, osmolarity of the sodium chloride solution will be 6\times 3mol/L=18Osmol/L

Do atoms lend and borrow electrons from inner shells
zaharov [31]
False. They don't borrow electrons at all. They already have their respective electron affinities. This is called as electronegativity, and it's an occurence where it already has its own from its actual structure. It never borrows any electrons at all.

A force that exists throughout the universe. Earth's will pull on you at a rate of 9.8 m/s2 if you ignore friction.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Your answer is Gravity,

The Earth's gravity pulls things at a rate of 9.8m/s² (varying depending upon one's distance). according to Newton, "all mass in the universe exerts some gravitational force". you are pulling on Sagitarios A* (the black hole at the center of the milky way galaxy) right now, and it is also pulling on you.

If you have any questions I <em><u>insist</u></em> that you ask in the comments.
