Calculate solute of a 0.1m nacl solution at 25 degrees celsius. if the concentration of nacl inside the plant cell is 0.15m, which way will the water diffuse if the cell is placed into the 0.1m nacl solution?

The correct answer is -7.429 bars.

Explanation:

The solute potential inside the cell is calculated by the formula = -iCRT

Here, i refers to the number of ions, C refers to the concentration of solute, R refers to the gas constant, and T is the temperature (K)

The concentration within the cell of the plant is 0.15 M for NaCl, i = 2, R = 0.0831 and T = 298 K or 25 degree C.  

Solute potential = - (2 * 0.15 * 0.0831 * 298) = -7.429 bar

c. heat from the poles back down towards the equator.
