I believe it is all to do with diffusion.

The solvent particles will move from an area of high concentration to the area of low concentration (the cell).

What is the percent by volume of ethanol in a solution that contains 48 mL of ethanol dissolved in 144 mL of water?

Percent by Volume of Solute in Solvent = Volume Solute/ (Volume Solvent + Volume Solute) * 100% = 48/ 192 = 25%


Why volume of solvent increases after sonication?

due to dissolution of the particles present in the solution so the volume increases


What is the effect on the molarity of a solution of adding more solvent to a solution?

Adding more solvent to a solution decreases the molarity of the solution. This is based on the principle that initial volume times initial molarity must be equivalent to final volume times final molarity.


What solution contains the largest volume of solvent in 100mL?

3 percent alcohol


What is helium percent by volume?

Helium accounts for around 8% of the volume of all matter (baryonic particles) in the universe.


How does an increase in surface area help a solute dissolve more quickly?

Not necessarily just changing the surface area causes the rate to change. Changing the ratio of surface area volume changes the rate at which a solute dissolves in a solvent. If the surface area is larger and the volume of a solute is smaller or the same, then the rate at which the solute dissolves in a solvent increases. If the surface area is smaller and the volume of the solute is larger or the same, then the rate at which the solute dissolves in a solvent decreases.


How to make 5 percent silver nitret from10.2 percent?

You need to add an amount of solvent, such as water, to dilute it but you didn't specify the volume of the starting solution.


What is the percentage of volume?

Volume percent (v/v %) is defined as: volume percent = [(volume of solute) / (volume of solution)] x 100% Volume percent is handy when preparing solutions of liquids. Concentration of a solution can be stated in volume percentages. Be aware that volume of solution is in formula denominator, not volume of solvent. Thus to get 10% v/v solution of ethanol in water you can take 10 ml of ethanol and add enough water to have total 100 ml of resulting solution. It is worth to mention volumes of solute and solvent cannot be simply added to get volume of solution. For instance if you add 10 ml of ethanol to 90 ml of water the volume of the solution will be less than 100 ml.


How much sugar is there in 100mL of a10 percent aqueous sugar solution and what is the solvent in the solution?

percent concentration = (mass of solute/volume of solution) X 100 To solve for mass of solute, mass of solute = (percent concentration X volume of solution)/100 So, mass of solute = (10% X 100mL)/100 = 10g


Do dilute solutions contain a large amount of solute for a certain volume of solvent?

Dilute solution contain small amounts of solute for a certain volume of solvent.


How would you expect the intrinsic volume for a polymer in a particular solvent to vary with temperature?

generally, a polymer gets dissolved in a solvent (which implies lower density and higher volume). the higher the temperature, the quicker the process, so to answer: the intrinsic volume for a polymer in a particular solvent increases with the temperature.


Is solvent greater than or less than the volume of solute?

The solvent is the greater of the two dissolved quantities.
