"Polysaccharide carbohydrate" comprises an S. pneumoniae capsule.

<u>Option:</u> C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The lengthy sequences of carbohydrate molecules, primarily polymeric carbohydrates constructed of units of monosaccharides linked together through glycosidic connections, understood as Polysaccharides. This carbohydrate can respond to water by catalyzing amylase enzymes, which generate component sugars.

A major human pathogen is Streptococcus pneumoniae or pneumococcus. The virulence is primarily due to its polysaccharide envelope, which protects it from the recipient immune response, and this has led to comprehensive study of the shell.

Tia has a sample of pure gold (Au). She weighed the sample and the result was 35.9 grams. Tia wants to determine the number of a
Gemiola [76]
First, find moles of gold given the mass of the sample:
(35.9g Au)/(197.0g/mol Au) = 0.182mol Au

Second, multiply moles of Au by Avogrado's number:
(0.182mol)(6.02 x10^23)= 1.10x10^23 atoms Au

A gas of 3.4 moles occupies a volume of 0.046 L at 298 K. What is the pressure in kPa?
Phantasy [73]

Answer : The correct option is, 2.1\times 10^5kPa

Explanation :

To calculate the pressure of gas we are using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas = ?

V = volume of gas = 0.046 L

n = number of moles of gas = 3.4

R = gas constant = 8.314 L.kPa/mol.K

T = temperature of gas = 298 K

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

P\times (0.046L)=(3.4mol)\times (8.314L.kPa/mol.K)\times (298K)

P=1.83\times 10^5kPa\approx 2.1\times 10^5kPa

Therefore, the pressure of gas is, 2.1\times 10^5kPa

Refer to the following table for information about gold and mercury. Then choose which statements are true about equal sample si
babymother [125]
Below are the choices:

A The mercury will change temperature at a much faster rate under the same heating conditions. 
<span>B The two metal samples will change temperature at about the same rate. </span>
<span>C The gold would float if placed in the mercury. </span>
<span>D The gold would sink to the bottom if placed in the mercury.
</span>
  <span>a = false, it will take 0.031 cal to raise 1g Au 1degree while it will take 0.033 cal to raise 1g Hg 1 degree so, although Au will heat up faster, it will not be discernably faster so... 
b = true 
c = false, Au density > Hg 
d = true</span>
