(a)
To determine: The number of molecules of NaCl present in 1L of solution of 1.0M NaCl having 58.5g of salt per liter.
Introduction: Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute present in 1 liter of solution. The unit of molarity is mol/L. The molarity of the solution is used to express the concentration of the solution.
(b)
To determine: The number of millimoles of NaCl presents in the solution of 1.0M NaCl containing 58.5g of salt per liter.
Introduction: The mole is the SI unit that measures the amount of a substance. One mole is equal to the
(c)
To determine: The number of equivalents of sodium ions present in the 1.0M solution of NaCl.
Introduction: The concentration of ions present in a solution is expressed as the number of equivalents per liter. One equivalent is equal to the number of charges carried by one molarity of ions.
(d)
To determine: The percent solution of 58.5g of NaCl per liter.
Introduction: The concentration of the solute in a solution is expressed by percent solution. It means a 10% solution is 10 parts of solute in 100 parts of solution. The amount of solute in a percent solution is expressed as the percentage of total solution weight or volume.

- How is a protein destined for the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), imported into the ER? Be concise.arrow_forwardFind out about the organisations and the movements aimed at the conservation of our natural resources. Eg Chipko movement and Greenpeace. Make a project report on such an organisation.arrow_forwardWhat are biofertilizers and mention the significancearrow_forward
- PCBs and River Otters: Otters in Washington State’s Green-Duwamish River have high levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in their livers. PCBs can bind to the estrogen receptors in animals and disrupt the endocrine system of these otters. The PCBs seem to increase the estrogen to androgen ratio, skewing the ratio toward too much estrogen. How would increased estrogen affect the river otter population? Based on your reading of the materials in this unit, what factors can affect fertility in humans? Explain how each of the factors affecting human fertility that you described can disrupt the human endocrine system to affect reproduction.arrow_forwardOther than oil and alcohol, are there other liquids you could compare to water (that are liquid at room temperature)? How is water unique compared to these other liquids? What follow-up experiment would you like to do, and how would you relate it to your life?arrow_forwardSelection of Traits What adaptations do scavengers have for locating and feeding on prey? What adaptations do predators have for capturing and consuming prey?arrow_forward
- Competition Between Species What natural processes limit populations from growing too large? What are some resources organisms can compete over in their natural habitat?arrow_forwardSpecies Interactions Explain how predators, prey and scavengers interact. Explain whether predators and scavengers are necessary or beneficial for an ecosystem.arrow_forwardmagine that you are conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different. (Editor’s note: Providing this information in your discussion will help readers to consider the significance of the research).arrow_forward
