Answer:

Water is attracted to other substances. Adhesion and cohesion are water properties that affect every water molecule on Earth and also the interaction of water molecules with molecules of other substances.

Which of the following would NOT diffuse through the plasma membrane by means of simple diffusion?1 oxygen2 glucose3 a steroid h
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Option 2= Glucose

Explanation:

Cell membrane is made up of two phospholipid layers and each contain phosphate head and fatty acid or lipid tails. the head is present between the outer and inner boundaries and tail is present in between. The small non- polar molecules can pass the membrane through simple diffusion. This lipid tail restrict the passage of polar molecules including water soluble substances like glucose. However, transmembranes are present that allow the molecules to inter that are blocked by the tails.

Facilitated diffusion:

it is a type of diffusion in which caries protein without using the cellular energy shuttle the molecules to the cell membrane. Glucose is bind on the carrier protein ,change the shape and transport it from one to another side of membrane. In order to absorb the glucose red blood cells use this kind of diffusion.

Primary active transport:

The cells that are present along small intestine use this type of transport to pump the glucose inside the cell. The primary active transport require energy to transport the glucose inside.

Secondary active transport:

It is another method of transport of glucose into the cell. This method can not use ATP but it is based on concentration gradient of the sodium that provide electro chemical energy for the glucose transport.

Why is the mass of the third subatomic particle ignored?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The mass of electrons is mostly ignored because electrons are extremely small compared to neutrons and protons.

Explanation: A proton is about 1,836 times the size of an electron.

On the periodic table, the atomic number for each element can be found. This number is found by measuring the weight of 6.02 x 10^23 atoms of the element in grams. Electrons aren't ignored when finding exact math, but for the sake of simplification high school teachers will generally have you only count the number of protons and neutrons when calculating the mass of atoms.

Hydrogen bonds are in the family of Van der Waals forces. They are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds but they cause interesti
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The answer is B. Van der Waals forces are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds.

Explanation:

In general, if we arrange these molecular forces from the strongest to weakest, it would be like this:

Covalent bonds > Ionic bonds > Hydrogen bonds > Dipole-Dipole Interactions > Van der Waals forces

Covalent bonds are known to have the strongest and most stable bonds since they go deep and into the inter-molecular state. A diamond is an example of a compound with this characteristic bond.

Ionic bonds are the next strongest molecular bond following covalent bonds. This is due to the protons and electrons causing an electro-static force which results to the strong bonds. An example would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl), which when separated is Na⁺ and Cl⁻.

Van der Waals forces, also known as Dispersion forces, are the weakest type of molecular bonds. They are only formed through residual molecular attractions when molecules pass by each other. It doesn't even last long due to the uneven electron dispersion. It can be made stronger by adding more electrons in the molecule. This kind of molecular bonds appear in non-polar molecules such as carbon dioxide.
