Answer:

c. Fungi

d. Yeast

Explanation:

Both fungi and yeast will be effectively removed by a 0.22 micron pore size filter.

<em>The size of microscopic fungi ranges from 2 to 10 microns  while the size of yeast ranges from 3 to 4 microns in diameter. Hence, both organisms will be effectively filtered off by a 0.22 micron filter paper.</em>

The size of bacteria ranges from 0.2 to 2 microns while that of virus is in nanometer. Hence both cannot be effectively removed by a 0.22 micron pore size filter paper.

The correct options are c and d.

black coffee has a pH of 5, therefore its H+ concentration is ______ times greater than a solution with a pH of 10.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

100,000

Explanation:

pH of coffee = 5

pH of solution = 10

Concentration of H+ ions between successive pH values are in multiples of 10

Hence, the pH difference :

pH of solution - pH of coffee

(10 - 5) = 5

Hence, difference in H+ ions will be :

10^5 = 10*10*10*10*10 = 100,000 times
