Answer:

Even though plants are rooted in the ground, they still move, exert force, and do work.

Plant cells have very strong cell walls that allow pressure to build up inside of the cell as water is absorbed. This pressure is called turgor.

When turgor pressure is high enough in a cell, the cell walls become firm and as a result, the cell becomes rigid and the plant is able to stand tall and straight.

When a plant does not get enough water, the turgor pressure inside of the cells decreases. A decrease in pressure pushing against the cell wall causes the cells to lose their shape and shrink. This causes the plant to begin to droop or wilt.

When the wilted plant gets enough water, the cells will become rigid again, and the plant will stand firm and straight once again.

Find the percent composition of each element in KMnO4

VARVARA [1.3K]

The way you want to find the percent composition would be by breaking down the problem like so:

K= atomic mass of K which is 39.098
Mn = atomic mass of Mn which is 54.938
O= atomic mass of o which is 15.999

Then you want to add 39.098+ 54.938+ 15.999 and you get 110.035 which is the molar mass for KMnO

Then you want to take each molar mass and then divide it 110.035 and multiply by 100

Ex. K = 39.098/ 110.035 and the multiply what you get by a 100

You do this for the other elements as well good luck!

Select the compound that is most likely to increase the solubility of ZnSe when added to water.NaCnMgBr2NaClKClO4

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

NaCl.

Explanation:

In the solution, ZnSe ionizes to $Zn^2^+$ and $Se^2^-$ . Following reaction represents the ionization of ZnSe in solution -

$ZnSe$ ⇄ $Zn^2^+ + Se^2^-$

As we want to increase the solubility of ZnSe, we must decrease the concentration of dissociated ions so that the reaction continues to forward direction.

If we add NaCl to this solution, then we have $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ in the solution which will be formed by the ionization of NaCl.

Now, $Zn^2^+$ in the solution will react with two $Cl^-$ ions to form $ZnCl_2$ as follows -

$Zn^2^++2Cl^-$ ⇄ $ZnCl_2$

Due to this reaction the concentration of $Zn^2^+$ will decrease in the solution and more ZnSe can be soluble in the solution.
