Answer:

Antigens are molecules capable of stimulating an immune response. Each antigen has distinct surface features, or epitopes, resulting in specific responses. Antibodies (immunoglobins) are Y-shaped proteins produced by B cells of the immune system in response to exposure to antigens.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answers:

A) 2040 kg/m³; B) 58 600 km

Explanation:

A) Density

$V = \frac{ 4}{3 }\pi r^{3} = \frac{ 4}{3 }\pi\times (\text{1150 km})^{3} = 6.37 \times 10^{9} \text{ km}^{3}$

$\text{Density} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} = \frac{1.3\times 10^{22} \text{ kg} }{6.37 \times 10^{9} \text{ km}^{3}}\times (\frac{\text{1 km}}{\text{1000 m}})^{3} = \text{2040 kg/m}^{3}$

<em>B) Radius</em>

$\text{Volume} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}} = \frac{5.68\times 10^{26} \text{ kg} }{687 \text{ kg/m}^{3} }= 8.268 \times 10^{23} \text{ m}^{3}$

$V = \frac{ 4}{3 }\pi r^{3}$

$r^{3} = \frac{3V }{4 \pi }\$

$r= \sqrt [3]{ \frac{3V }{4 \pi } }$

$r= \sqrt [3]{ \frac{3\times 8.268 \times 10^{23} \text{ m}^{3}}{4 \pi } }= \sqrt [3]{ 1.974 \times 10^{23} \text{ m}^{3}}= 5.82 \times 10^{7} \text{ m}=\text{58 200 km}$

Among Na ,K , Pb , Li , The atom which does not react with water is :

Explanation:

Li : Reacts slowly with water

Na ,K : Reacts vigorously with water

Pb : It does not reacts with water because :- Pb oxidize in presence of atmospheric oxygen to form lead oxide (PbO) . this PbO form a layer over the surface of Pb and make it inert to water.
