Answer : The number of molecules inside the cell is, 8.08\times 10^6

Solution :

First we have to calculate the volume of biomolecule cell.

Volume = Area of the base of the cell × length of the cell

V=\pi r^2\times h

where,

V = volume of the biomolecule cell

r = radius of the cell = \frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{1.2}{2}=0.6\mu m

h = length of the cell = 4.4\mu m

Now put all the given values in the above volume formula, we get

V=\frac{22}{7}\times (0.6\mu m)^2\times (4.4\mu m)=4.978\mu m^3=4.978\times 10^{-15}L

conversion : (1\mu m^3=10^{-15}L)

Now we have to calculate the moles of a biomolecule of the cell.

Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume}\\\\Moles=Molarity\times Volume=(0.0027mole/L)\times (4.976\times 10^{-15}L)=0.01343\times 10^{-15}moles

Now we have to calculate the number of molecules inside the cell.

\text{Number of molecules}=Moles\times (6.022\times 10^{23})\\\\\text{Number of molecules}=(0.01343\times 10^{-15})\times (6.022\times 10^{23})=8.08\times 10^6

Therefore, the number of molecules inside the cell is, 8.08\times 10^6

How far will a car go that is moving at 10 m/s in 1 hour
Airida [17]

Answer:

36,000 miles in one hour.

Explanation:

Because there are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour so to find out how many seconds are in an hour you multipy 60x60 to get 3600. Then to find out how many miles in the 3600 seconds you multiply 10 x 3600 to get 36000.

What happens when nitrogen fills its valence shell?
Sauron [17]
The right answer is D. three electrons are gained, creating N-3

Nitrogen has 5 electrons in it's valence shell and octet rule states that the valence shell must have 8 electrons. To satisfy that, Nitrogen gains 3 electrons that are negatively charged.Therefore, it gets a negative charge.

<span>1. The two qualities used to describe winds are direction and speed.
2. a local wind that blows during the day from an ocean toward land is a(n) sea breeze.
3. The increase in cooling that wind can cause is called the wind-chill factor.
4. Temperature differences between the equator and poles produce convection currents.
A movement that is parallel to Earth's Surface is called wind and a local wind is that wind that blows over a short distance.</span>
