Answer:

The concentration of this solution in units of pounds per gallon is 2.776*10^{-5} \frac{lb}{gal}

Explanation:

Units of measurement are established models for measuring different quantities. The conversion of units is the transformation of a quantity, expressed in a certain unit of measure, into an equivalent one, which may or may not be of the same system of units.

In this case, the conversion of units is carried out knowing that 1 μg are equal to 2.205*10⁻⁹ Lb and  1 mL equals 0.00022 Gallons. So

2.77 \frac{ug}{mL} = \frac{2.77 ug}{mL}

If 1 μg equals 2.205*10⁻⁹  lb, 2.77 μg how many lb equals?

lb=\frac{2.77ug*2.205*10^{-9}lb }{1ug}

lb=6.10785*10⁻⁹

So, 2.77 μg= 6.10785*10⁻⁹ lb

Then:

2.77 \frac{ug}{mL} = \frac{2.77 ug}{mL}=\frac{6.10785*10^{-9}lb }{mL} =\frac{6.10785*10^{-9}lb }{0.00022 gal} =\frac{6.10785*10^{-9}lb }{0.00022 gal}

You get:

2.77 \frac{ug}{mL} = 2.776*10^{-5} \frac{lb}{gal}

<u><em>The concentration of this solution in units of pounds per gallon is </em></u>2.776*10^{-5} \frac{lb}{gal}<u><em></em></u>

Sergio039 [100]

"Polysaccharide carbohydrate" comprises an S. pneumoniae capsule.

<u>Option:</u> C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The lengthy sequences of carbohydrate molecules, primarily polymeric carbohydrates constructed of units of monosaccharides linked together through glycosidic connections, understood as Polysaccharides. This carbohydrate can respond to water by catalyzing amylase enzymes, which generate component sugars.

A major human pathogen is Streptococcus pneumoniae or pneumococcus. The virulence is primarily due to its polysaccharide envelope, which protects it from the recipient immune response, and this has led to comprehensive study of the shell.

However, when the temperature increases, the solubility of gaseous solutes will _______?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

Since the speed in which the gas molecules are faster as they are heated, they fly around in the container and logically, it is harder to insert a moving object into water than something more stationary or slower.

24g of methane were burned in an excess of air. What mass of water would be produced in the reaction assuming complete combustio
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

54g of water

Explanation:

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of methane produce 2 moles of water.

To solve this question we must find the molar mass of methane in order to find the moles of methane added. With the moles of methane and the chemical equation we can find the moles of water produced and its mass:

<em>Molar mass CH₄:</em>

1C = 12g/mol*1

4H = 1g/mol*4

12g/mol + 4g/mol = 16g/mol

<em>Moles methane: </em>

24g CH₄ * (1mol / 16g) = 1.5 moles methane

<em>Moles water:</em>

1.5moles CH₄ * (2mol H₂O / 1mol CH₄) = 3.0moles H₂O

<em>Molar mass water:</em>

2H = 1g/mol*2

1O = 16g/mol*1

2g/mol + 16g/mol = 18g/mol

<em>Mass water:</em>

3.0moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>54g of water</h3>
