A scientist performs an experiment in which they create an artificial cell with a selectively permeable membrane through which o

nly water can pass. They inject a 5 M solution of glucose into the cell and then place the cell into a beaker of water. After an hour, what effect do you expect to observe?

Answer:

Water moves into the cell

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the cell is high in glucose and placed in a glass filled with water. This cell has a semi permeable membrane that allows only water to pass through, as the concentration of water within the cell is low, the cell will attempt to strike a balance with the medium it is inserted into. For this reason, what is likely to happen is the passage of water from the most concentrated to the least concentrated medium, that is, the water will pass from the cup to the cell.

water moves into the cell through osmosis.during osmosis water moves from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration of solute.the glucose introduced into the cell makes it more concentrated.

In this case the cell is hypertonic and water would enter into the cell through the semi permeable membrane.this membrane allows water to pass through but not glucose.this movement of water into the cell causes the cell to become turgid.

If the kinetic energy of a particle is equal to twice its rest mass, what is the velocity of the particle? Determine if relativi
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The velocity of the particle is 2 m/s,

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as energy of the body due to its motion. It is given by :

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where :

m = mass of the object

v = velocity of the object

We have , particle with mass m and its kinetic energy is twice its mass.

K.E=2m

2m=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2=\frac{4}{1}

v=2

And unit of velocity are m/s , so the velocity of the particle is 2 m/s.

A vessel contains Ar(g) at a high pressure. Which of the following statements best helps to explain why the measured pressure is
Luda [366]

Answer:

4. The combined volume of the Ar atoms is too large to be negligible compared with the total volume of the container.

Explanation:

Deviations from ideality are due to intermolecular forces and to the nonzero volume of the molecules themselves. At infinite volume, the volume of the molecules themselves is negligible compared with the infinite volume the gas occupies.

However, the volume occupied by the gas molecules must be taken into account. Each <u>molecule does occupy a finite, although small, intrinsic volume.</u>

The non-zero volume of the molecules implies that instead of moving in a given volume V they are limited to doing so in a smaller volume. Thus, the molecules will be closer to each other and repulsive forces will dominate, resulting in greater pressure than the one calculated with the ideal gas law, that means, without considering the volume occupied by the molecules.

what does the number of the places after the decimal in a measurement tell you about the precision of the instrument that record
snow_lady [41]
The more numbers after the decimal point there are, the more precise the instrument which recorded it is. For example, if one instrument during seismic activity records that the magnitude of the earthquake was 2.3, and another instrument recorded that it was 2.3645, the second instrument would have shown to be more precise.
