Which of the following is TRUE about electric charge?a. It can be lost. c. It is created from a chemical reaction.b. It can be destroyed. d. It can be transferred from atom to atom.
Seawater has a salinity of 3.5%, meaning that if you boil away a kilogram of seawater, when you're finished you'll have 35 g of solids (mostly NaCI) left in the pot. When dissolved, sodium chloride dissociates into separate Na+ and CI-ions.
Calculate the osmotic pressure difference between seawater and fresh water. Assume for simplicity that all the dissolved salts in seawater are N aCl.
Why do atoms become ions?
A. To have an equal number of protons and electrons
B. To have more protons than electrons
C. To have a complete shell of valence electrons
D. To become neutral
