A gas storage tank at a large industrial plant is designed to provide fuel under constant pressure. When the plant is shut down

on Friday afternoon, the pressure in the tank is 115 kPa at 338 K. By early Monday morning the pressure in the tank had dropped to 108.75 kPa. What was the temperature on that Monday morning in K?

Answer: Temperature on monday morning is 319,5K

Explanation: This is an example of Gay Lussac law on gases which states that at constant volume, pressure and temperature are directly related, so if one raises the other one does as well.

The equation that follow the law is :

P1 / T1 = P2/T2 where 1 is the initial pressure and temperature and 2 is the final state.

In this equation, values have to be expressed in atm  for pressure and Kelvin for temperature.

P1 = 115 kPa .\frac{1 atm}{101,3kPa} = 1,135 atm

P2 = 108,75 kPa .  \frac{1atm}{101,3kPa} =  1,073 atm

The missing value is T2 (monday temperature), so we have to clear it from the equation

T2 =P2.T1/P1

Replacing values:

T2 = 1,073 atm . 338K /1,135 atm

T2 = 319,5 K

How are viruses different from bacteria
Butoxors [25]

I believe the correct answer is that viruses are not cells while bacteria are cells with organelles.

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h3>Viruses</h3>

Viruses can simply be explained as genetic materials enclosed in capsules that protects them from the immune system.

Viruses need a host to survive since they lack a mechanism to replicate in meaning they are obligate intracellular organisms.

Reproduction of viruses is through attaching their DNA or RNA into the machinery of the host that replicates them as part of the normal DNA of the cell.

They are the smallest living organisms and cannot be seen microscopically.

They cannot be infected but rather can infect bacteria

They have a capsid that protects the viral material and also contains the receptors attachments that are able to attach to the specific sites which they are infecting. Some of them have an extra layer of a membrane that is called an envelope that further protects the viruses from their hostile environment

They are treated by antiviral medications that affects their replication on normal cells.

They are pathogenic by destroying the cells they enter after successfully replicating their genetic material.

They can either have DNA or RNA but never both.

<h3>Bacteria</h3>

They are cellular prokaryotes with cell organelles that keeps them functional

They can be obligate intracellular organisms or they can survive outside the cell without any problem depending on the particular species of the bacteria since they have cell organelles that can function.

Bacteria reproduce through a process called binary fission where the cell organelles just double up and the cell pinches into 2 different sections with equal distribution of genetic materials forming 2 different cells.

They can be infected by types of viruses called bacteriophages that use the hosts nucleoid to replicate.

They have a cell membrane and a cell wall which encloses the inner contents of the bacteria and also protects the bacteria from the immune system.

They are treated by antibiotics such as β-lactam antibiotics that destroys their cell wall making it porous and the cell eventually dies.

They do not enter the host for reproduction but rather they kill the host through toxins such as toxin A and toxin B

They do not have a nucleus but have the nucleoid that contains the DNA of the bacterium.

.Explicati de ce algele pluricelulare au culoarea rosie,verde respectiv bruna ?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Due to different pigments.

Explanation:

The multicellular algae are red, green and brown because of the presence of pigments. The red algae are red in colour because of the presence of the phycoerythrin which is a type of pigment. This pigment reflects red light due to already presence in its body and absorbs blue light that is necessary for photosynthesis process. The brown algae contain fucoxanthin pigment and green algae contain xanthophylls pigments that are responsible for its colour so we can conclude that these different types of pigments are responsible for the different colour of algae.
