"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.

Answer:

it turns from an atom origrionally to an ion

lithium atoms contain 3 protrons and 3 electrons. When it loses an electron, it is now an ion with more positive protons than electrons, meaning it is no longer balanced and has a +1 charge that was originally cancelled out by the electron we lost

aluminum bronze contains 92.0% of copper and 8.0% aluminum. what maximum mass of aluminum bronze can be prepared from 73.5g of c
slega [8]
The answer is 79.9 g.

Copper takes 92.0% of aluminum bronze and it is a limiting factor. We have aluminum in excess, so we need to make a proportion.
If 73.5 g of copper are 92.0%, how many g of aluminum bronze will be 100%:
73.5 g : 92.0% = x : 100%.
x = 73.5 g : 100% * 92.0%
x = 79.9 g

Therefore, from 73.5 g of copper and 6.4 g of aluminum (since 79.9 g - 73.5 g = 6.4 g), maximum 79.9 g of aluminum bronze can be prepared.

Complete these equations for the ionization of an Arrhenius acid or base in water. Include the states of the products.
Mazyrski [523]
1)
 HI(aq) → H⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq)
So this is an Arrhenius acid because it releases H⁺.

2)
LiOH(s) → Li⁺ + OH⁻
So this is an Arrhenius base because it releases OH⁻
