Answer : The correct option is B (clay, slit, sand).

Explanation :

Soil particles are of three types : Sand, Slit and clay. Most of the soils particles are made up of a combination of sand, slit and clay.

Particle size range of the sand = 2.00 -0.05 mm

Particle size range of the slit = 0.05 -0.002 mm

Particle size range of the sand = less than 0.002 mm

Sand is the largest soil particle, clay is the smallest soil particle and slit particle is present in between the sand & clay particle.

Therefore, the order from smaller to larger sediment particles is

Clay > Slit > Sand

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The absorbance of the myoglobin solution across a 1 cm path is 0.84.

Explanation:

Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

A=\epsilon \times c\times l

A=\log \frac{I_o}{I}

\log \frac{I_o}{I}=\epsilon \times c\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution

c = concentration of solution

\epsilon = Molar absorption coefficient

l = path length

I_o = incident light

I = transmitted light

Given :

l = 1 cm, c = 1 mg/mL ,\epsilon = 15,000 M^{-1}cm^{-1}

Molar mass of myoglobin = 17.8 kDa = 17.8 kg/mol=17800 g/mol

(1 Da = 1 g/mol)

c = 1 mg /mL = {1mg /mL}{\text{Molar mass of myoglobin}}

c = \frac{1 mg/mL}{ 17800 g/mol} = 5.6179\times 10^{-5} mol/L

1 mg = 0.001 g, 1 mL = 0.001 L

A= 15,000 M^{-1}cm^{-1}\times 5.6179\times 10^{-5} mol/L\times 1 cm

A=0.8426 \approx 0.84

The absorbance of the myoglobin solution across a 1 cm path is 0.84.

There is no sodium found in nature in pure form due to its reactivity. What does this say about activation energy of the reactio
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The activation energy of a chemical reaction is the energy that is required to be supplied for a chemical reaction to take place. The activation energy for the reaction of sodium is low compared to the energy released such that the reaction of sodium and water is spontaneous resulting in the melting of the sodium into liquid form

The activation energy of a candle wax is much higher, requiring the ignition of the wick which burns and in turn melts the candle wax to release vapors that burns alongside the wick to produce sooth carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and water vapor and release of heat energy which also fuels further combustion of the candle wax and wick

Therefore, the activation energy of the candle wax and wick which require the heat of direct flame from an ignited matches is higher than the activation energy of sodium placed in a medium of water that reacts spontaneously without heat application

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Protein Concentration is 2.82mg/L

Explanation:

According to Beer-Lambert's Law, Absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration.

However, the concentration of a solution can be determined from a calibration curve, in which Absorbance is plotted on the y-axis and the Concentration on the x-axis.

Plotting the best line, the equation of line is used

y = mx + c

where y is absorbance = 0.150

           m is slope = 0.0163

            x is concentration

             c is intercept = 0.104

inserting the values from the question

y = mx + c

0.150 = 0.0163x + 0.104

0.0163x = 0.150 - 0.104

0.0163x = 0.046

Divide both sides by 0.0163

0.0163x/0.0163 = 0.046/0.0163

x = 2.82

Concentration of protein = 2.82 mg/L
