WHAT IF? Given a liter of pure water and a liter solution of acetic acid, what would happen to the pH, ingeneral, if you added 0.01 mol of a strong acid to each?Use the reaction from question 3 to explain the result.
MAKE CONNECTIONS Aquaporins exclude passage ofhydronium ions (H3O+), but some aquaporins allow passage of glycerol, a three-carbon alcohol (see Figure 5.9),as well as H2O. Since H3O+is closer in size to water thanglycerol is, yet cannot pass through, what might be thebasis of this selectivity?
i just answered a hw question that i was a little confused on. i answered it but am not fully sure if it's correct. so can you take a look at check if my answer is correct and if it's not, then a explaintion would be helpful.
Would you expect water molecules to move faster when there is a HIGH concentration gradient or a LOW concentration gradient?
Water molecules would move faster when there is a high concentration gradient because the pressure for the molecules in the high concentration to reach equilibrium increases since there are more molecules there than in the low concentration. So as the molecules move down the concentration gradient faster to equalize the concentration on both sides due to the increased pressure, the rate of diffusion increases.

- VOLUTION CONNECTION This chapter explains how theemergent properties of water contribute to the suitabilityof the environment for life. Until fairly recently, scientistsassumed that other physical requirements for life includeda moderate range of temperature, pH, atmospheric pressure,and salinity, as well as low levels of toxic chemicals. Thatview has changed with the discovery of organisms knownas extremophiles, which have been found flourishing inhot, acidic sulfur springs, around hydrothermal ventsdeep in the ocean, and in soils with high levels of toxicmetals.
