Answer: There was a lower concentration of salt in the water than in the cells.
Explanation:
Osmosis is a process in which the solvent flow from a solution of low concentration to a solution of high concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.
When the red blood cells are put in water that contained salt and the red blood cells burst after some time.
This means the solvent has moved from outside to inside the cell and this is possible only when the concentration of solute is high inside the cell than outside. That means the solution has low concentration of solute as compared to the cell and was a hypotonic solution.
Answer:
b) Gain or lose electrons
Explanation:
An ion is an electrically charged particle. For an atom to be charged, it must have gained or lost electron in the process and therefore, it becomes an ion.
The loss or gain of electrons is what makes an atom charged and eventually becomes an ion.
A positively charged ion is one that has lost an electron and it is called a cation. In such an ion, the number of electrons are lesser than those of protons. This is why they are cations
A negatively charged ion is one that has gained electrons. They are called anions. In such an ion, the number of electrons are greater than that of protons.
Found the choices. Pls see attachment.
The statements that explains this phenomenon are:
1) DNA contains adenine as one of its nitrogenous bases.
2) DNA has a double-stranded structure that ensures an accurate mechanism of duplication.
False
The stirring allows fresh solvent molecules to continually be in contact with the solute. If it is not stirred, then the water right at the surface of the solute becomes saturated with dissolved sugar molecules, meaning that it is more difficult for additional solute to dissolve.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
A drying tube prevents moisture from contaminating the reactants. The drying tube contains CaCl2 a hygroscopic material whose function is to absorb the moisture so that it does not react with the Grignard reagent. Without the desiccating action of CaCl2, moisture will enter the reaction chamber,contaminating the reactants.
If water reacts with the Grignard reagent, an alkane is formed. The mechanism of this reaction is shown in the image attached. R here represents the alkyl moiety of the Grignard reagent.
