[FREE SOLUTION] | 91Ó°ÊÓ

91Ó°ÊÓ

A 0.1%(m/v)albumin solution is separated from a 2%(m/v)albumin solution by a semipermeable membrane. (Albumin is a colloid.)

a. Which compartment has the higher osmotic pressure?

b. In which direction will water flow initially?

c. In which compartment will the volume level rise?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(part a) 2%(m/v)albumin solution compartment has the higher osmotic pressure.

(part b) The water flow initially from 0.1%(m/v)albumin solution to 2%(m/v)albumin solution.

(part c) The 2%(m/v)Albumin solution compartment have the high level of Volume.

Step by step solution

01

Introduction (part a).

Mass percentage is concentration expression of solute which may be percentage of the mass of the solution. It expressed by the following formula:

Mass percentage of solute=grams of solutegrams of solution×100%

02

Given Information (part a).

Given:

0.1%(m/v)Albumin solution is separated from 2%(m/v)albumin solution.

03

Explanation (part a).

The compartment with the highest osmotic pressure is the 2%(m/v)compartment.

04

Given Information (part b). 

0.1%(m/v)albumin solution is separated from 2%(m/v)albumin solution.

05

Explanation (part b). 

Water will initially flow from 0.1%(m/v) albumin solution to 2%(m/v)albumin solution.

06

Given Information (part c).

0.1%(m/v)albumin solution is separated from2%(m/v) albumin solution.

07

Explanation (part c).

The volume of the2%(m/v) compartment will increase.

Tamiflu (oseltamivir), C16H28N2O4 is an antiviral drug used to treat influenza. The preparation of Tamiflu begins with the extraction of shikimic acid from the seedpods of star anise. From 2.6g of star anise, 0.13g of shikimic acid can be obtained and used to produce one capsule containing 75mg of Tamiflu. The usual adult dosage for treatment of influenza is two capsules of Tamiflu daily for 5 days.

a. If black spheres are carbon atoms, white spheres are hydrogen atoms, and red spheres are oxygen atoms, what is the formula of shikimic acid?

b. What is the molar mass of shikimic acid?

c. How many moles of shikimic acid are contained in 130g of shikimic acid?

d. How many capsules containing 75mg of Tamiflu could be produced from 155g of star anise?
