What would you use as a blank or reference if the solutions were made using 80 percent acetone in water as the solvent rather than pure water explain why?

Blanks are made using the same solvent used in your solutions. So, in this case, you would use 80 percent acetone in water. Blanks allow you to see what parts of your results are due to the solvent and what parts are due to the solute. If you used pure water as your blank, it would not show the effect of the 80 percent acetone in water on your results.


Example hypertonic solution?

hypertonic solution is when the cell contains more water inside of it than there is in its environment. Because of the process of osmosis, the water inside the cell will move outside into the environment to make it balanced. This will cause the cell to shrivel up. An example would be a water balloon filled with water. The water inside would leak out if there is a hole in the balloon (cells already have tiny openings so it doesnt need to be ruptured for this to occur) because there is more water inside than there is in its environment. The balloon will eventually leak out all its water and become shriveled. Hope that helps!


What direction does water move when cells are placed in hypertonic solution?

Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.


What would happen if plants would have the same roots?

If plants had the same roots, they would compete for resources like water and nutrients, leading to decreased growth and possibly death of one or both plants. Each plant's roots play a crucial role in absorbing essential resources from the soil, so sharing the same root system would be detrimental to their survival.

What happens to cells placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions using diagrams?

In an isotonic solution the cell would be unchanged. In a hypertonic solution water would flow out of the cell and it would shrink. In a hypotonic solution water would flow into the cell and it would expand like a balloon and possibly rupture.


Would you heat a mixture of solutions directly on a flame or a water bath?

It depends on the solutions you mixed. If they are non-flammable, heating them on a flame would be fine. If they are flammable, I would use both a water bath and an electric hot plate.


What if membranes were made of salts and sugars?

Then they would disolve in water, and would be useless in conjunction with aqueous solutions.


Which mixtures listed on the activity above are solutions?

Mixtures that are solutions are those in which the particles of the solute are uniformly dispersed in the solvent, creating a homogeneous mixture. In the activity above, the mixtures that are likely solutions would be salt dissolved in water, sugar dissolved in water, and vinegar diluted in water.


How do particles in solutions differ from those in solutions?

particles in solutions are dissolved. Unless the particles are too big, then they would just sink to the bottom E.G sand wouldn't dissolve in water, but salt would. particals in soulutions are dissolved

Water, rocks, shells, sand, and possibly fish.


What are two solutions that you can drink?

You can drink any liquid solution, just depends on what results you want. Water would be good, bleach would be bad.Two solutions that you can drink safely (bleach would likely kill you) would be sugar water and small amounts of vinegar. Pure water technically isn't a solution.


How would you describe the relationship between solutes solvents and solutions of saline water?

Sodium chloride is the solute and water is the solvent.
