Q. 9.83 - An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry

Question

A semipermeable membrane separates two compartments, $A$ and $B$. If the levels in $A$ and $B$ are equal initially, select the diagram that illustrates the final levels in a to d: $(9.6)$

 

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

(Part a) The diagram $2$ explains the degree of the solution compartments $A and B.$

(Part b) Because the solution in each container has the same volume and mass, the amount of the solution in compartment $A$ and compartment $B$ represents diagram $1$.

(Partc) The diagram $3$ shows the level of the solution compartments $A and B.$

(Part d) The diagram $2$ refers to the level of the solution compartments $A and B.$

Step 1: Introduction. (Part a)

All green plants produce starch, which should be a white, granular organic molecule. Starch is a tasteless, soft white powder that is immiscible with water, alcohol, and other liquids.

Step 2: Given data (Part a).

Find the $2\% of (m/v) starch$is equal to which solution.

  

Step 3: Explanation (Part a).

(a) The diagram $2$ depicts the level of a $20\%(m/v)$starch solution in compartment $A$ and an $8\%(m/v)$starch solution in compartment $B$.

Step 4: Given data (Part b)

Find the $1\%(m/v) starch$ are equal initially to solution.

Step 5: Explanation (Part b).

(b) Because the solution of $1\%(m/v)$ starch in compartment $A$ and $1\%(m/v)$ starch in compartment $B$ has the same mass and volume, the level of each compartment's liquid represents diagram $1$.

Step 6: Given data (Part c).

Find the components $A$and $B$ are equal initially.

Step 7: Explanation (Part c).

(c) The diagram $3$reflects the impact of sucrose solution of $5\%(m/v)$ in compartment $A$ and $1\%(m/v)$in compartment $B$.

Step 8: Given data (Part d).

Find the components $A$ and $B$ are equal initially.

Step 9: Explanation (Part d).

(d) The diagram $2$ represents the concentrations of $0.1\%(m/v)$ sucrose in compartment $A$ and $1\%(m/v)$ sucrose in compartment $B$.
