What really is the Ebola virus?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago
7 0
The Ebola virus belongs to a family of viruses termed Filoviridae. Filovirus particles form long sometimes branched filaments of varying shapes, as well as shorter filaments , and may measure up to 14,000 nanometers in length with diameter of 80 nanometers. Viral particles contain one molecule of single stranded RNA enveloped in a lipid membrane. New viral particle bud from the surface of their host cell. Although Ebola virus was only discovered in 1976, it is an ancient virus and is thought to have split from other viruses thousands of years ago.

Describe the kinds of potential energy that are stored by a car driving on a hill.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The internal combustion engine in the car converts the potential chemical energy in gasoline and oxygen into thermal energy which is transformed into the mechanical energy that accelerates the vehicle (increasing its kinetic energy) by causing the pressure and performing the work on the pistons.

The mass of carbon in 1 liter of mixture = 1.108 g

<h3>What is the mass of carbon in 1 liter of the mixture?</h3>

The mass of carbon in 1 liter of the mixture is determined as follows:

First the moles of gas is determined using the ideal gas formula:

  • n = PV/RT

n = (1 * 1)/(0.08205L * 298)

n = 0.0409 mole of total gas

mass of gas is then determined using the formula:

  • mass = density * volume

mass = 1 * 1.375

mass = 1.375 g

Let x = mass of CH₄ and y = mass of C₄H₁₀

x + y = 1.375 g

nCH₄ + nC₄H₁₀ = ntotat

moles = mass/molar mass

x + y = 1.695 => y = 1.695 - x

(x/molar mass of CH₄) + [(1.375 - x)/ molar mass C₄H₁₀ = 0.0409

x/16 + (1.375 - x)/58 = 0.0409

x = 0.380 g CH₄

y = 1.375 - 0.380

y = 0.995 g of C₄H₁₀

mass of C in CH₄ = 12/16 * 0.380 = 0.285

mass of C in C₄H₁₀ = 48/58 * 0.995 = 0.823

Mass of carbon in 1 liter of mixture = 0.285 + 0.823

Mass of carbon in 1 liter of mixture = 1.108 g

In conclusion, the carbon is the major component in the mixture.

_______________ are filled with special absorbing elements that move up and down between the uranium rods to keep the atoms from
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The correct answer is - control rods.

Explanation:

Control rods are filled with special absorbing agents such as boron, cadmium, silver, and others to absorb as many neutrons as to control the fission reaction by moving them up and down in between uranium rods.

These control rods are used to prevent the nuclear reaction from getting out of control in the nuclear plant or reactor by absorbing the neutrons and prevent uranium to convert.
