The agar plate with the most countable colonies should be determined by using a colony forming unit (CFU) calculator.

<h3>What is a colony?</h3>

A colony can be defined as a group of visible mass of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, that originated (cultured) from a single-mother cell and are grown on a solid agar medium.

In order to determine the most countable colonies, we have to count the total number of colonies by using a hemacytometer and then use a colony forming unit (CFU) calculator to determine the cfu/mL.

<u>Note:</u> You should choose a dilution factor based on the total number of colonies contained in the agar plate.

Finally, input the correct dilution factor into the colony forming unit (CFU) calculator to determine which agar plate has the most countable colonies.

Define a fluid very sort answer

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

A fluid is a medium that has a defined mass and volume, but no fixed shape, at a constant temperature and pressure. This may include gases, liquids, plasmas, and to some extent plastic solids. A fluid can flow and deform, preventing it from carrying loads in a static equilibrium. A fluid is always compressible and internal frictional forces always occur due to the viscosity of the fluid.

Critical Thinking Challenge: A student has a part time

mina [271]

Answer:

6⅔ shifts

Explanation:

From the question given:

A shift = 4 hours

Pay = $8.25 per hour

Next, we shall determine the number of hours that will result in a pay of $220. This can be obtained as follow:

$8.25 = 1 hour

Therefore,

$220 = $220 × 1 hour / $8.25

$220 = 220/8.25 hours.

$220 = 80/3 hours

$220 = 26⅔ hours

Therefore, it will take 26⅔ hours to receive a pay of $220.

Finally, we shall determine the number of shifts in 26⅔ hours. This can be obtained as follow:

4 hours = 1 shift

Therefore,

26⅔ hours = 26⅔ ÷ 4

26⅔ hours = 80/3 × 1/4

26⅔ hours = 80/12

26⅔ hours = 20/3

26⅔ hours = 6⅔ shifts

Therefore, she will work 6⅔ shifts in order to receive a pay of $220

If 100 mg of ferrocene is reacted with 75 mg of anhydrous aluminum chloride and 40 microliters of acetyl chloride and 100 mg of

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

81.3 %

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

For ferrocene:-

Mass of ferrocene = 100 mg = 0.1 g

Molar mass of ferrocene = 186.04 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{0.1\ g}{186.04\ g/mol}$

$Moles\ of\ ferrocene= 0.0005375\ mol$

For acetyl chloride:-

Volume = 40 microliters = 0.04 mL

Density = 1.1 g / mL

Density is defined as:-

$\rho=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

or,

$Mass={\rho}\times Volume=1.1\times 0.04\ g=0.044 g$

Mass of acetyl chloride = 0.044 g

Molar mass of acetyl chloride = 78.49 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{0.044\ g}{78.49\ g/mol}$

$Moles\ of\ acetyl\ chloride= 0.0005606\ mol$

As per the reaction stoichiometry, one mole of ferrocene reacts with one mole of acetyl chloride to give one mole of monoacetylferrocene

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, ferrocene is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

one mole of ferrocene on reaction forms one mole of monoacetylferrocene

0.0005375 mole of ferrocene on reaction forms 0.0005375 mole of monoacetylferrocene

Moles of product formed = 0.0005375 moles

Molar mass of monoacetylferrocene = 228.07 g/mole

Mass of monoacetylferrocene produced = Moles*molecular weight = 0.0005375*228.07 g = 0.123 grams = 123 mg

Given experimental yield = 100 mg

<u>% yield = (Experimental yield / Theoretical yield) × 100 = (100/ 123) × 100 = 81.3 %</u>
