Answer:

A cell's plasma membrane, also known as the cell membrane, provides protection. It also maintains a constant atmosphere within the cell, and the membrane serves a variety of purposes. The first is to transport nutrients into the cell, and the second is to transport toxic compounds out

Calculate the electric double layer thickness of a alumina colloid in a dilute (0.1 mol/dm3) CsCI electrolyte solution at 30 °C.

Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Concentration = 0.1 $mol/dm^{3}$

= 0.1 \frac{mol dm^{3}}{dm^{3}} \frac{10^{3}}{dm^{3}} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23}}{1 mol} ions

= $6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3}$

T = $30^{o}C$ = (30 + 273) K = 303 K

Formula for electric double layer thickness ( $\lambda_{D}$ ) is as follows.

$\lambda_{D}$ = $\frac{1}{k} = \sqrt \frac{\varepsilon \varepsilon_{o} K_{g}T}{2 n^{o} z^{2} \varepsilon^{2}}$

where, $n^{o}$ = concentration = $6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3}$

Hence, putting the given values into the above equation as follows.

$\lambda_{D}$ = $\sqrt \frac{\varepsilon \varepsilon_{o} K_{g}T}{2 n^{o} z^{2} \varepsilon^{2}}$

= $\sqrt \frac{78 \times 8.854 \times 10^{-12} c^{2}/Jm \times 1.38 \times 10^{-23}J/K \times 303 K}{2 \times 6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3} \times (1)^{2} \times (1.6 \times 10^{-19}C)^{2}}$

= $9.669 \times 10^{-10}$ m

or, = $9.7 A^{o}$

= 1 nm (approx)

Also, it is known that $\lambda_{D}$ = $\sqrt \frac{1}{n^{o}}$

Hence, we can conclude that addition of 0.1 $mol/dm^{3}$ of KCl in 0.1 $mol/dm^{3}$ of NaBr " $\lambda_{D}$ " will decrease but not significantly.

1. You have three molecules of glucose (3C6H12O6). How many carbon atoms do you have?. . A. 3. . B. 6. . C. 18. . D. 36. 2. Whic

Leviafan [203]

One molecule of glucose has 6 carbon atoms. So if you have three molecules of glucose, simply multiply 3 by 6 carbon atoms. The correct answer is C. 18 Carbon atoms.

The correct answer for the second questions is C. Air. A homogenous mixture is a mixture in which its components are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. It has a sigle phase.
