Foods that allow microorganism to grow are called parasites true or false

1 answer:

7 0

False. Foods that allow microorganism to grow are not called parasites. Parasites are organisms that feeds on the nutrients of its host.
For example leeches. They suck on our blood.

Foods that allow microorganism to grow are called potentially hazardous foods. They are high in protein and moisture and are slightly acidic.
For example hamburgers. They are high in protein and moisture.

Consider the following reaction: A(g)⇌2B(g). Find the equilibrium partial pressures of A and B for each of the following differe

Illusion [34]

Answer:

a. Kp=1.4

$P_{A}=0.2215 atm$

$P_{B}=0.556 atm$

b.Kp=2.0 * 10^-4

$P_{A}=0.495atm$

$P_{B}=0.00995 atm$

c.Kp=2.0 * 10^5

$P_{A}=5*10^{-6}atm$

$P_{B}=0.9999 atm$

Explanation:

For the reaction

A(g)⇌2B(g)

Kp is defined as:

$Kp=\frac{(P_{B})^{2}}{P_{A}}$

The conditions in the system are:

A B

initial 0 1 atm

equilibrium x 1atm-2x

At the beginning, we don’t have any A in the system, so B starts to react to produce A until the system reaches the equilibrium producing x amount of A. From the stoichiometric relationship in the reaction we get that to produce x amount of A we need to 2x amount of B so in the equilibrium we will have 1 atm – 2x of B, as it is showed in the table.

Replacing these values in the expression for Kp we get:

$Kp=\frac{(1-2x)^{2}}{x}$

Working with this equation:

$x*Kp=(1-2x)^{2} - -> x*Kp=4x^{2}-4x+1- - >4x^{2}-(4+Kp)*x+1=0$

This last expression is quadratic expression with a=4, b=-(4+Kp) and c=1

The general expression to solve these kinds of equations is:

$x=\frac{-b(+-)*\sqrt{(b^{2}-4ac)}}{2a}$ (equation 1)

We just take the positive values from the solution since negative partial pressures don´t make physical sense.

Kp = 1.4

$x_{1}=\frac{(1.4+4)+\sqrt{(-(1.4+4)^{2}-4*4*1)}}{2*4}=1.128$

$x_{1}=\frac{(1.4+4)-\sqrt{(-(1.4+4)^{2}-4*4*1)}}{2*4}=0.2215$

With x1 we get a partial pressure of:

$P_{A}=1.128 atm$

$P_{B}=1-2*1.128 = -1.256 atm$

Since negative partial pressure don´t make physical sense x1 is not the solution for the system.

With x2 we get:

$P_{A}=0.2215 atm$

$P_{B}=1-2*0.2215 = 0.556 atm$

These partial pressures make sense so x2 is the solution for the equation.

We follow the same analysis for the other values of Kp.

Kp=2*10^-4

X1=0.505

X2=0.495

With x1

$P_{A}=0.505atm$

$P_{B}=1-2*0.505 = -0.01005 atm$

Not sense.

With x2

$P_{A}=0.495atm$

$P_{B}=1-2*0.495 = 0.00995 atm$

X2 is the solution for this equation.

Kp=2*10^5

X1=50001

$X2=5*10^{-6}$

With x1

$P_{A}=50001atm$

$P_{B}=1-2*50001=-100001atm$

Not sense.

With x2

$P_{A}= 5*10^{-6}atm$

$P_{B}=1-2*5*10^{-6}= 0.9999 atm$

X2 is the solution for this equation.

What does a metal's position in an activity series indicate about the chemical properties of that particular metal?

Fed [463]

The closer to the top the metal is in the list, the more active the metal is and the stronger a reducing agent the metal is. When two different metals are involved in a redox reaction, the metal higher in the list will be oxidized and give up electrons that will reduce the cation of the less active metal.
