Does Acetate fabric shrink?

Acetate fabric has a tendency to shrink when exposed to heat, so it is best to avoid high heat settings when washing or drying it. It is recommended to follow the care instructions provided by the manufacturer to minimize the risk of shrinking.


What happen to blood cell in 10 percent NaCL?

In a 10% NaCl solution, which is a strong hypertonic solution, red blood cells would shrink and shrivel up due to the high concentration of salt outside the cell causing water to move out of the cell through osmosis, leading to cell dehydration and eventual cell death.


Can mountains grow or shrink?

Mountains can both grow and shrink over long periods of time due to tectonic forces such as plate movement and erosion. The process of mountain growth usually occurs over millions of years when tectonic plates push against each other, forcing the Earth's surface to rise. On the other hand, mountains can shrink through erosion caused by weathering and other natural processes that wear down their surfaces.


Does 2 percent NaCl cause crenation or hemolysis in red blood cells?

2% NaCl is hypertonic to red blood cells causing them to shrink and crenate due to water moving out of the cells by osmosis. Hemolysis is likely to occur in hypotonic solutions where red blood cells swell and burst.


Why do mothballs disappear at room temperature?

Mothballs contain chemicals that slowly turn from a solid into a gas at room temperature, a process called sublimation. As the chemicals vaporize, the mothballs shrink in size and eventually disappear as the gas dissipates into the air.
