How many valence electrons is each element trying to obtain?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lukranit [14]3 years ago
3 0
An element is always trying to have 8 valence electrons. Each element must obtain a different number to come to a total of 8

Ampicillin is a bacteriostatic antibiotic. (Instead of killing bacteria, it inhibits their growth.) Ramon plated bacteria transf
love history [14]

Answer:

A) That resistance in bacteria is produced due to inactivation of ampicillin by the beta lactamase enzyme. This enzyme is expressed by the bla gene found in the plasmid. This enzyme is secreted into the culture medium, thereby inactivating ampicillin. Thanks to this inactivation, the bacteria colonies will be able to develop. After a day of incubation, only those bacteria that took the plasmid that gives them resistance to ampicillin will grow after transformation. After prolonged incubation, two types of colonies can be observed in the culture medium. One large colony with ampicillin resistance, and another small colony, both of which are sensitive to ampicillin.

B) Large colonies are characterized by being resistant to ampicillin. When Ramón isolates the plasmid, he will have the gene that provides resistance to antibiotics. Said plasmid can be used again on those bacteria that are sensitive to ampicillin.

On the other hand, satellite colonies are sensitive to ampicillin. These types of colonies do not have the plasmid that contains the gene that gives ampicillin resistance. It is not possible to isolate any plasmids from these satellite colonies. These satellite bacteria will not be able to grow if they are transferred to a plate containing fresh ampicillin, while large colonies, which possess the plasmid that gives them resistance to ampicillin, will be able to grow on that plate.

A large cyclotron directs a beam of He++ nuclei onto a target with a beam current of 0.250 mA. (a) How many He++ nuclei per seco
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a. 7.8*10¹⁴ He⁺⁺ nuclei/s

b. 4000s

c. 7.7*10⁸s

Explanation:

I = 0.250mA = 2.5 * 10⁻³A

Q = 1.0C

1 e- contains 1.60 * 10⁻¹⁹C

But He⁺⁺ Carrie's 2 charge = 2 * 1.60*10⁻¹⁹C = 3.20*10⁻¹⁹C

(A).

No. Of charge per second = current passing through / charge

1 He⁺⁺ = 2.50 * 10⁻⁴ / 3.2*10⁻¹⁹C

1 He⁺⁺ = 7.8 * 10¹⁴ He⁺⁺ nuclei

(B).

I = Q / t

From this equation, we can determine the time it takes to transfer 1.0C

I = 1.0 / 2.5*10⁻⁴ = 4000s

(C).

Time it takes for 1 mol of He⁺⁺ to strike the target =?

Using Avogadro's ratio,

1.0 mole of He = (6.02 * 10²³ ions/mol ) * (1 / 7.81*10¹⁴ He ions)

Note : ions cancel out leaving the value of the answer in mols.

1.0 mol of He = 7.7 * 10⁸s

Phenol red is an indicator that changes color over a range from ph=6.4 to ph=8.0. what is ka of phenol red?
patriot [66]
First, we will get the average pH of the two given values:
average pH = (6.4+8) / (2) = 7.2
At this average pH, the concentration of the acid from the phenol red is equal to the concentration of the base.
pH = 7.2
[H+] = 10^(-7.2) = 6.3 * 10^-8

Phenol red has the general formula HA, this gives us:
HA <.......> H+ + A- 
At pH = 7.2, [H+] = [A-]
<span>Ka = [H+][A-]/ [HA]
</span>Ka = [H+] = <span>6.3 x 10^-8</span>
