Answer:
Water outside the cell will flow inwards by osmosis to attain equilibrium
Explanation:
In the hypotonic environment, the concentration of water is greater outside the cell and the concentration of solute is higher inside. A solution outside of a cell has a lower concentration of solutes relative to the cytosol.
If concentrations of dissolved solutes are greater inside the cell, the concentration of water inside the cell is correspondingly lower. As a result, water outside the cell will flow inwards by osmosis to attain equilibrium.
Osmosis is a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one through a semipermeable membrane.
Answer:
Explanation:
Calcium chloride is <u>deliquescent.</u> If exposed to air, it will absorb sufficient water from the air to allow it to dissolve. After a short while, instead of a white lump, you will have a pool of clear liquid.
Answer:
a. BH₃
Explanation:
According to the octet rules, atoms reach stability when are surrounded by eight electrons in their valence shell when they combine to form a chemical compound.
From the options, the only compound in which the central atom does not meet the octet rules is BH₃. The central atom is boron (B), which has 3 electrons in its valence shell. When B is combined with hydrogen (H), 3 electrons from the 3 atoms of H are added. The total amount of electrons is 6, fewer than 8 electrons needed to meet the rule.

The answer is correct orientation and sufficient energy. Answer choice D
Answer:
Heating this gas to 55 °C will raise its volume to 6.87 liters.
Assumption: this gas is ideal.
Explanation:
By Charles's Law, under constant pressure the volume
of an ideal gas is proportional to its absolute temperature
(the one in degrees Kelvins.)
Alternatively, consider the ideal gas law:
.
is the number of moles of particles in this gas.
should be constant as long as the container does not leak.
is the ideal gas constant.
is the pressure on the gas. The question states that the pressure on this gas is constant.
Therefore the volume of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature.
Either way,
.
.
For the gas in this question:
- Initial volume:
.
Convert the two temperatures to degrees Kelvins:
- Initial temperature:
. - Final temperature:
.
Apply Charles's Law:
