What is the difference between hypertonic and hypotonic

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bess [88]3 years ago
5 0
Answer: A solution will be hypertonic to a cell if its solute concentration is higher than that inside the cell, and the solutes cannot cross the membrane. If a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, there will be a net flow of water into the cell, and the cell will gain volume.

Picture:
Meaning of hypertonic: (1): having a higher osmotic pressure than a particular fluid, typically a body fluid or intracellular fluid. (2) of or in a state of abnormally high muscle tone.

14. How many grams of NaCl are contained in 0.350 kg of a
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

4.87g

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Mass of solution = 0.35kg

Molality = 0.238 m

Mass of NaCl =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of NaCl in the solution.

Molality of a solution is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit kg of the solvent. It is given as:

Molality = mol of solute /mass of solvent (kg)

With the above formula, we calculate the mole of NaCl present in the solution as follow:

Molality = mol of solute /mass of solvent (kg)

0.238 = mol of NaCl /0.35

Cross multiply

mol of NaCl = 0.238 x 0.35

mol of NaCl = 0.0833 mol

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of NaCl in 0.0833 mol of NaCl.

This is illustrated below:

Number of mole NaCl = 0.0833 mol

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mass of NaCl =..?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of NaCl = 0.0833 x 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 4.87g

Therefore, 4.87g of NaCl is contained in the solution.

Disadvantages of Mendeleev's periodic table​
mestny [16]

Answer:

Various limitations of Mendeleev's periodic table are:-

Position of hydrogen - he couldn't assign a correct position to hydrogen as it showed properties of both alkali and halogens .

Position of isotopes - he considered that the properties of elements are a function of their atomic masses. Hence isotopes of a same element couldn't be placed.

In the d-block , elements with lower atomic number were placed before higher atomic number.
