Ray Of Light [21]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

3 significant figures.

Explanation:

Significant figures are expression of measurement in form of the precision that can be obtained. Precision of an equipment considers how well it can give measurements to the smallest certain level.

If one wants to report a measurement using a meter stick that has been divided into centimeters, the precision is reported to 3 significant figures.

So,

Formate has a resonating double bond.

In molecular orbital theory, the resonating electrons are actually delocalized and are shared between the two oxygens.  So the carbon-oxygen bonds can be described as 1.5-bonds (option B).  I'm not sure if option C is correct, however, because the likelihood of both delocalized electrons being in the area of one oxygen atom is less than 50%.<span />

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) is a group of compounds which contain more than one aromatic ring. Typically examples include; naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene etc.

PAH are present in petroleum products. Almost everyone is regularly exposed to vehicles or other equipments that uses petroleum products as fuel. PAH is usually released from the combustion engine of these equipments and may be inhaled by humans. Thus there is a very high risk of PAH exposure compared to other items listed in the question.

You have performed a serial dilution of an unknown sample and counted 73 CFU on a countable plate that was marked as a 10^-4 dil
dexar [7]

Hey there!:

To find the original sample population density, divide the conted colonies by the dilution factor and the inoculate:

= 73 / (10⁻⁴ * 0.1)

= 73*10⁵

Thus, the original sample's population density was 7.3*10⁶ or 73* 10⁵.

Hope this helps!
