You are stranded on a lifeboat with several other people in the middle of the ocean. You have run out of clean drinking water and are very thirsty. The others have started to drink the seawater to quench their thirst. Since you’re waiting for rescue (and are a top notch AP Biology student), you decide to solve a couple of water potential problems to determine if drinking sea water is a good idea or not. a) The majority of dissolved ions in seawater is NaCl, roughly a 0.5M concentration. The ionization constant of NaCl is 2.0. Calculate the solute potential for seawater if you know that the water is 2°C. b) Your own cells have a 0.15M concentration. Calculate the solute potential for your own cells, knowing that body temperature is 37°C. c) Using your knowledge about water potential, if you drink the seawater, wat will happen when the seawater comes into contact with your body’s cells? Note: ΨP for animal cells is zero
Why do you think that most textbooks do not consider a hydrogen bond to be an example of a van der Waals force?
Acids (a) release hydroxyl ions when dissolved in water, (b) are proton acceptors, (c) cause the pH of a solution to rise, (d) release protons when dissolved in water.
How do you solve question 1 and 2?
Solution A is a strong acid of pH 2, and solution B is an equally strongbase of pH 8. Each chemical can donate or receive a single proton. Ifequal amounts of solutions A and B are mixed, is the resulting solution acidic or basic?
