Answer:  Carboxylic acid

Explanation:  Bee stings are basically venomous in nature and they do create excruciating pain because they contain Formic acid which belongs to the carboxylic acid group.

Formic acid has a pKa of 3.5 approximately. Thus it is moderately acidic in nature . That is why it is recommended to treat it with some kind of alkali like Baking soda or toothpaste etc.

The structure of the formic acid is displayed in the image attached.

If a concentration of 10 fluorescent molecules per μm2of cell membrane is needed to visualize a cell under the microscope, how m
lara [203]

Answer : Total molecules that will be needed to visualize a single egg will be 78500 molecules of dye.

Explanation : As a single egg cell has an approximately diameter of 100 μm.

We can use this formula to calculate area of the cell membrane;

A = π (100)^{2} / 4;  

We can take π as 3.14 and we get;

A = 3.14 X (100)^{2} / 4  

Soving we get;

A =  7850 μm^{2}  

Here we have to calculate the amount of dye molecules which will be needed for 10 fluorescent molecules / μm^{2}  but;

here 1 μm^{2} = 7850 μm^{2} dye molecules.

Therefore, 10 fluorescent molecules will need;  

7850 X 10 = 78500 molecules of dye.

Therefore, the answer is 78500 molecules of dye.

Sediment layers stop lateral spreading when:
GREYUIT [131]
Sediment layers stop lateral spreading when they encounter a barrier and they run out of additional sedimentary material. Lateral spreading is the lateral movement of gently to steeply sloping, saturated soil deposits caused by earthquake-induced liquefaction. Hope this answers the question.

If after heating the reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid, the mass of the magnesium chloride and beaker is measured
Allushta [10]

Since the beaker was heated we can asume that only magnesium cloride is left in the beaker, therfore the difference between the beaker with magnesium chloride and the empty beaker give the mass of magnisium chloride:

\text{mass MgCl}_2=massbeakerwithMgCl_2-mass\text{ emprty beaker =37.83 g - 33.95g = 3.8}8g
