Answer:

Through transport proteins

Explanation:

There's two transport proteins, channel/pore protein and carrier protein. Charged/polar molecules or ions need specific transport proteins to pass through across the plasma membrane. Transport proteins allows ions/polar molecules to bind to the specific site and allow them to pass through and enter the cell.

(btw, is this a chemistry question? isn't this a biology ques?)

How many ions are there in 0.187 mol of Na+ ions

kondaur [170]

Best Answer
1 mole of a substance contains 6.022x10^23 "units" of that substance.

So 0.187 mol of Na+ is 1.13x10^23 ions (6.022x10^23 x 0.187).

A sample of gallium Bromide GaBr2,weighing 0.165 g was dissolved in water and treated with silver nitrate AgNO3, and resulting t

tresset_1 [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent gallium in gallium bromide is 30.30 %.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of gallium bromide = 0.165 g

Molar mass of titanium gallium bromide = 229.53 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of gallium bromide}=\frac{0.165g}{229.53g/mol}=0.00072mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of gallium bromide and silver nitrate follows:

$GaBr_2+2AgNO_3\rightarrow 2AgBr(s)+Ga(NO_3)_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 moles of gallium bromide produces 1 mole of gallium nitrate

So, 0.00072 moles of gallium bromide will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.00072=0.00072moles$ of gallium nitrate

Now, calculating the mass of gallium nitrate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of gallium nitrate = 193.73 g/mol

Moles of gallium nitrate = 0.00072 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.00072mol=\frac{\text{Mass of gallium nitrate}}{193.73g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of gallium nitrate}=0.139g$

Calculating the mass of gallium in the reaction, we use unitary method:

In 1 mole of gallium nitrate, 1 mole of gallium atom is present.

In 193.73 grams of gallium nitrate, 69.72 g of gallium atom is present.

So, in 0.139 grams of gallium nitrate, the mass of gallium present will be = $\frac{69.72}{193.73}\times 0.139=g$

To calculate the percentage composition of gallium in gallium bromide, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ composition of gallium}=\frac{\text{Mass of gallium}}{\text{Mass of gallium bromide}}\times 100$

Mass of gallium bromide = 0.165 g

Mass of gallium = 0.050 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ composition of gallium}=\frac{0.050g}{0.165g}\times 100=30.30\%$

Hence, the percent gallium in gallium bromide is 30.30 %.

A pharmacist wishes to strengthen a mixture from 10%alcohol to 30% alcohol. How much pure alcohol should be added to 7 liters of

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

2 litres of pure alcohol will be added to make the overall concentration of 9 litres of mixture as 30%.

Explanation:

Suppose x is the number of litres added to the 10% mixture than the quantity of new mixture is given as below

$n_{old}=7$ litres
$n_{new}=7+x$ litres

Also the quantity of alcohol is given as

$q_{old}=10 \% \, of \, 7 \, litres =0.7$

$q_{added}=x$

$q_{new}= 30 \% \,of \,new\, quantity = 0.3(7+x)$

Now the equation is as

$q_{old}+q_{added}=q_{new}\\0.7+x=0.3(7+x)\\0.7+x=2.1+0.3x\\x-0.3x=2.1-0.7\\0.7x=1.4\\x=2 \, litres$

So 2 litres of pure alcohol will be added to make the overall concentration of 9 litres of mixture as 30%.
