A vessel, originally containing pure water, is divided in half by a membrane permeable only to water. One mole of CaCl2 is then dissolved in the left side whereas one mole of NaCl is dissolved in the right side. Which way does water then flow in this system, and what side is at the higher pressure after osmotic equilibrium is achieved

Why is the bond angle in a water molecule less than the bond angle of methane? a. the central oxygen atom in water has two lone pairs of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has no lone pairs. b. the central hydrogen atom in water has one lone pair of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has two lone pairs. c. the central oxygen atom in water has four lone pairs of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has only one lone pair. d. the central oxygen atom exerts more repulsive force on surrounding atoms than the central carbon atom in methane does. reset next
