Answer:

The answers are: <u>Hypertonic solution,</u> <u>shrink</u>;  <u>Hypotonic solution,</u> <u>swell</u>

Explanation:

A hypertonic solution is a solution with relatively higher solute concentration. Whereas, hypotonic solution is a solution have relatively lower solute concentration.

<u>When a cell is placed in hypertonic solution,</u> solute concentration inside the cell is less than outside the cell. Thus the <u>water diffuses outside the cell</u> through the cell membrane, due to osmotic pressure. This causes the cell to <u>shrink and wrinkle</u>.

Whereas, <u>when a cell is placed in hypotonic solution</u>, solute concentration inside the cell is more than outside the cell. Thus the <u>water diffuses inside the cell</u> through the cell membrane, due to osmotic pressure. This causes the cell to <u>swell.</u>

What is anisotropy.Explain briefly with example.
Zarrin [17]

Explanation:

Anisotropy is the property of being directionally dependent, which implies different properties in different directions, as opposed to isotropyAn example of anisotropy is light coming through a polarizer. Another is wood, which is easier to split along its grain than across it.

Dehydration of 2-methyl-2-pentanol forms one major and one minor organic product. Draw the structures of the two organic product
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The major product is 2-methyl-2-pentene [ CH₃-CH₂-CH=C(CH₃)₂ ] and a minor product 2-methyl-1-pentene [ CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-C(CH₃)=CH₂ ].

Explanation:

Dehydration reaction is a reaction in which a molecule loses a water molecule in the presence of a dehydrating agent like sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).

<u>Dehydration reaction of 2-methyl-2-pentanol</u> gives a major product 2-methyl-2-pentene and a minor product 2-methyl-1-pentene.

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-C(CH₃)₂-OH (2-methyl-2-pentanol)→ CH₃-CH₂-CH=C(CH₃)₂ (2-methyl-2-pentene, major) + CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-C(CH₃)=CH₂ (2-methyl-1-pentene, minor)

<u>Since more substituted alkene is more stable than the less substituted alkene. So, the trisubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-2-pentene is more stable than the disubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-1-pentene.</u>

<u>Therefore, the trisubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-2-pentene is the major product and the disubstituted alkene, 2-methyl-1-pentene is the minor product.</u>

Calculate the mass of 0.00456 moles of (NH4)2SO4
Anna [14]
To find the mass you need to find the weight of a mol of the molecules by adding up the atomic mass.

N =  14.007 g/mol
H = 1.008 g/mol
S = 32.065 g/mol
O = 16 g/mol

2(14.007) + 8(1.008) + 32.065 + 4(16) = 132.143 g/mol

Now you know how much an entire mol weight you multiply it by how much you actually have 

0.00456 * 132.143 = 0.603 g
