How does cellulose fibers absorb water?

The OH ends of the cellulose chain allow for hydrogen bonding with the water molecules. The electrons concentrate around the Carbon side - makes the OH end polar. A more positive end on the H side, and a more negative charge on the carbon side.


How does water move in osmosis?

Osmosis moves a solvent (eg water) to balance the concentrations of solute either side of a semipermeable membrane. The solvent is not lost.If the concentration of a solution is higher on one side of the membrane than the other, then the water moves across the membrane from the less concentrated side to the more concentrated side to dilute it until the concentrations on either side are equal.


A semipermeable membrane has a 4 percent salt solution on the right side and a 12 percent salt solution on the left side what will most likely occur-?

Osmosis of water from the right to the left


Why do you need sodium stearate in deodorant?

because it then lets the deodorant stick to your body. Without it, the deodorant would just roll off your body like water. The side of sodium stearate which sticks to oils, stick onto your skin whilst the other side holds on to the deodorant itself.


Why there is strong attraction between the water molecules though a water molecule itself is electrically neutral?

Water is a polar molecule, it has a bent shape with the Hydrogen (positive side) molecules on the opposite side of the Oxygen (the negative side) the type of molecular attraction (Inter molecular forces) present in water, (giving it it's cohesion) is called Hydrogen Bonding. The positive hydrogen (and it is more positive because it's so much smaller then the oxygen, leading to uneven sharing of electrons, meaning the oxygen will pull the electrons more, making it more negative) wants to be near the negative oxygen of another water molecule.

How many drops of water can a penny hold on its surface?

Water has a surface tension. When dropping water on a penny, people usually underestimate how much water the surface of a penny can hold. The surface tension of water is strong on a smaller surface, and when dropping water on the surface of a penny, towards 20 drops the water on the penny will look like it is bulging out a lot. It really depends, depending on which side of the penny you are using, it ranges from 6 to even 34 drops using a simple eyedropper. Because eyedroppers do not produce the exact same size of drops every time, the result is not very accurate. To be even more accurate, scientists use accurate distributing machines and a very new penny to determine how many drops of water it can hold without vibrations. There could be certain amounts of grime and dirt on a penny, depending on how old it is, which can affect how much water can be put onto it. Different types of water can also change how much a penny can hold. Tap water has certain amounts of chemicals in it, and that could also affect the weight and surface tension of the water on the penny. The height of which the water comes off from matters too, the more force of the water that comes down, the more likely the water on the penny is to splash and spill. The place the water lands on also has an effect on it. To be even more accurate, light has a mass. If light shines directly at the water on a penny, it could push it a tiny bit. This change is impossible to see, and it has basically no effect on the penny or water at all whatsoever. Remember, all tests may not be 100% accurate, and there may always be a chance that there is a better way to make a penny hold more droplets of water than the presumed "most advanced and accurate" way.
