The answer is A

The bacteria that cause disease are known as pathogens. The term pathogen is used to refer to all types of disease causing microorganisms. These include bacteria, fungi, protozoa and fungi.

Bacteria. Microscopic organisms that come in many shapes and sizes. Some bacteria that cause disease in man are Salmonella typhi which causes typhoid and Streptococcus pyogens which causes sore throat.

Virus. A virus is a microscopic entity much smaller than even bacteria and can only exist inside a host such as a cell. It cannot live on its own. Some viruses that cause disease are HIV which causes AIDS and Rhino virus which causes colds.

Fungi. These are a group of unicellular or multicellular microscopic organisms that live by feeding on organic matter. A type of fungus that causes disease is Trichophyton mentagrophyte which is responsible for athlete's foot.

Protozoa. A group of one celled organisms which live in water. Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoa, an amoeba which causes amoebic dysentery in man.

Choose the term that best fits the following definition: the liquid or gas that carries the sample across the solid support.

iren [92.7K]

The correct answer is option B.

The liquid or gas that carries the sample across the solid support is called mobile phase.

In chromatography, there are two phases: mobile phase and solid phase.

The mobile phase can be either in gas form or liquid form.

While performing the chromatography technique, mobile phase moves over the stationary phase and its components adsorb to the stationary phase and set apart from each other at different rates.

In general, mobile phase refers to the solvent phase that slides over the stationary phase through the chromatography paper.

on the other hand, stationary phase is motionless.

Approximately how many ice cubes must melt to cool 650 milliliters of water from 29°C to 0°C? Assume that each ice cube contains

qwelly [4]

Answer : The number of ice cubes melt must be, 13

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of water.

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}$

Density of water = 1.00 g/mL

Volume of water = 650 mL

$\text{Mass of water}=1.00g/mL\times 650mL=650g$

Now we have to calculate the heat released on cooling.

Heat released on cooling = $m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)$

where,

m = mass of water = 650 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $29^oC$

$T_2$ = initial temperature = $0^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

Heat released on cooling = $650g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (29-0)^oC$

Heat released on cooling = 78793 J = 78.793 kJ (1 J = 0.001 kJ)

As, 1 ice cube contains 1 mole of water.

The heat required for 1 ice cube to melt = 6.02 kJ

Now we have to calculate the number of ice cubes melted.

Number of ice cubes melted = $\frac{\text{Total heat}}{\text{Heat for 1 ice cube}}$

Number of ice cubes melted = $\frac{78.793kJ}{6.02kJ}$

Number of ice cubes melted = 13.1 ≈ 13

Therefore, the number of ice cubes melt must be, 13

The following equation is one way to prepare oxygen in a lab. 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2 Molar mass Info: MM O2 = 32 g/mol MM KCl = 74

Alex73 [517]

From the equation above the reacting ratio of KClO3 to O2 is 2:3 therefore the number of moles of oxygen produced is ( 4 x3)/2 = 6 moles since four moles of KClO3 was consumed
mass=relative formula mass x number of moles
That is 32g/mol x 6 moles =192grams
