The most accurate answer is A.

Bacterial cells are generally very small, almost 10 times smaller than most animal and plant cells. Most bacterial cells measure about 0.2 to 10 microns or micrometers which in inches is 0.0000079 to 0.00039.

One of the reasons that bacterial cells are so small is that they require a large surface area to volume ratio to be able to take in nutrients. They take in nutrients from their surroundings through the process of diffusion.

Express the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 in each units A.) ms B.) ns C.) ps D.) fs

zavuch27 [327]

The answer:
we should know the meaning of each abbreviation:
ms means millisecond, its value is 10^-3 s
ns means means nanosecond, its value is 10^-9 s
ps means picosecond, its value is 10^-12 s
fs means femtosecond, its value is 1x 10^15 s

Expressions of the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 are
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 ps
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 x 10^-9 x 10^-3= 556.2 x 10^-9 ms
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^-3 x 10^-9 = 556.2 x 10^-3 ns
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 x 10^15 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 fs

Calculate the [H3O+] of solutions a and b; calculate the [OH-] solutions c and d.

patriot [66]

Answer:

I got the answers but it won't let me post it correctly on here....

Explanation:

9.) 10-2.76 =0.0174 [H30+]= 1.74*10-3 M

10.)10-3.65=0.00224  [H3O+] =2.24*10-2 M

11.)10-3.65=0.00224 [OH-]= 2.224*10-4M

12.)10-6.87=0.00000135  [OH-]= 1.35*10-7M

Why Group 18 elements on the periodic table rarely form compounds

lawyer [7]

Most elements on group 18 are the Noble Gases. They already have a complete last level with 8 electrones. Actually they can form compounds but only on the lab and they will not even last half a second.

How many grams of water do you need to weigh if a reaction requires 5 moles of h2o

rewona [7]

One mole of water weighs 18 grams. H₂O is composed of 2H= 2 and 1 0=16 adding gives you 18. number of moles= mass/ Relative Molecular Mass

Therefore, mass= Relative Molecular Mass×number of moles

= 18×5 moles

= 90 grams

Qué clase de alimentos podemos encontrar que contengan oligoelementos como Cromo (Cr), Litio (Li), Selenio (Se), Manganeso (Mn),

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer: There are many foods who have trace elements like seafood, legume, vegetables, tomatoes, bananas, eggs, fishes, meat.

Their five mainly functions are accept or receive electrons in redox reactions, act like cathalytic centers which are necessaries to live, control biologics process like the hormon activation and gen expression, provide stability, 3d structures in important molecules.

Explanation: Trace elements participate in redox reactions because they have acid-base components which alkalize o acidify the way, protecting the organism from free radicals.

Biological sources which are controlled by trace elements are:

assimilation of ATP
methabolic sources relationed with insuline
oxygen transport in the organism
stomach acid formation
3d structures from important moleculess are mantained by balance of electrons which make up the atoms from the molecule.
