A food web is a system of interlocking and interdependent food chains.
A food chain is a hierarchical series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food.
Basically, the difference of the two is that a food web contains multiple different species in the same level that eat the animal below it's status. A food chain is one after the other.
Answer:
5.8μg
Explanation:
According to the rate or decay law:
N/N₀ = exp(-λt)------------------------------- (1)
Where N = Current quantity, μg
N₀ = Original quantity, μg
λ= Decay constant day⁻¹
t = time in days
Since the half life is 4.5 days, we can calculate the λ from (1) by substituting N/N₀ = 0.5
0.5 = exp (-4.5λ)
ln 0.5 = -4.5λ
-0.6931 = -4.5λ
λ = -0.6931 /-4.5
=0.1540 day⁻¹
Substituting into (1) we have :
N/N₀ = exp(-0.154t)----------------------------- (2)
To receive 5.0 μg of the nuclide with a delivery time of 24 hours or 1 day:
N = 5.0 μg
N₀ = Unknown
t = 1 day
Substituting into (2) we have
[5/N₀] = exp (-0.154 x 1)
5/N₀ = 0.8572
N₀ = 5/0.8572
= 5.8329μg
≈ 5.8μg
The Chemist must order 5.8μg of 47-CaCO3
Answer: -
The approximate number of atoms in a bacterium is 10¹¹
Explanation: -
We are given the mass of a bacterium is 10⁻¹⁵ kg.
We are told that the mass of a hydrogen atom is 10⁻²⁷ kg.
Finally we learn that the average mass of an atom of the bacterium is ten times the mass of a hydrogen atom.
Mass of an atom of bacterium = 10 x mass of hydrogen atom
= 10 x 10⁻²⁷ kg.
= 10⁻²⁶ kg.
Thus the number of atoms in a bacterium = 
= 
= 10¹¹
