Ethylene oxide is sporicidal. Option A is correct option.

<h3>What is ethylene oxide? </h3>

Ethylene oxide is defined as the cyclic ether or the simplest epoxide compound. It contains a ring structure consist of two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. It is a colourless gas having fruity odour. Ethylene oxide is highly flammable and reactive and hence exposure which may result in lung injury or in respiratory irritation.

<h3 /><h3>Why ethylene oxide is sporicidal? </h3>

Ethylene oxide is a potent sterilant which can kill all life forms and having high sporicidal activity due to its property of high penetrating effects. It is also convenient to use and also effective at room temperature. Therefore, it is mostly used in hospitals to sterilize surgical equipment, instruments, and in disposable medical devices which are sensitive to heat and moisture.

Thus we concluded that ethylene oxide is sporicidal due to its property of high penetrating effects. Therefore, option A is correct option.

The following questions are about ethyl bromide,n-propyl bromide, isopropyl bromide,t-butyl bromide, &amp; neopentyl bromide
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

a) Watch the attaccment

b) Ethyl bromide is more reactive than n-propyl bromid, and this more than neopentyl bromide. Ethyl bromide has less steric hindrance than the others, to SN2 reactions.

c) t-butyl bromide is more reactive than  isopropyl bromide, and this more than ethyl bromide. t-butyl bromide structure stabilize the carbocation, better than the others.

Explanation:

Speed of SN2 reactions depends on steric hindrance, the less hindrance, the most reaction speed, meaning more reactivity. Then, those linear structures are more reactive to SN2 reactions.

In the other hand, speed of SN1 reactions depends on the stability of the carbocation formed. Structure with ramifications can stabilize better the carbocation, these structures are more reactive to SN1 reactions.

Ans 1. Both

Ans 2. Once inside plants, carbon moves through food chains, where organisms become nutrients including herbivores, carnivores and ultimately, decomposers. Once buried in the soil, carbon can be converted into fossil fuels over long periods of time and then also reenter the atmosphere by combustion. The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. The carbon cycle is an example of the Law

Ans 3. Most of the chemical energy needed for life is stored in organic compounds as bonds between carbon atoms and other atoms. The law of conservation of energy states that energy can not be created or destroyed. Thus, just like matter energy is also conserved in the process.

Hope it helps

How many 250 mg tablets of metronidazole are needed to make 150 ml of suspension containing 100 mg/ml?
Viktor [21]
The  number  250 mg  tablets of Metronidazole  that  are needed to make  150  ml  of suspension containing 100 mg/ml

250mg= 150 ml

what  about 100 ml = ? Mg

by cross multiplication

150 ml x 250 mg/100 ml = 60 Mg   of  250 mg   is needed
