Answer:

Infectious diseases are commonly transmitted through direct person-to-person contact.

The main four pathogens are virus, bacteria, protists and fungi.

Bacteria, fungi and protists can reproduce wherever the conditions are warm, with plenty of moisture, nutrients, and space. Viruses can only reproduce by invading living cells.

Which of the following compounds exhibit hydrogen bonding?

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

a,b,e,f,g

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is an intermolecular force of attraction between two molecules. It is a special type of dipole-dipole attraction.

In hydrogen bonding, the hydrogen on one molecule binds with an electronegative atom on another molecule usually oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.

The simple electrostatic attraction leads to strong intermolecular interaction between two molecules.

For the formation of hydrogen bond, a hydrogen atom must be bonded to more electronegative specie usually N, O and F

In H₂O and H₂O₂ ; hydrogen bonds with Oxygen

CH₃NH₂; hydrogen is attached to nitrogen

HF; hydrogen is attached to fluorine

CH₃OH; hydrogen is attached to oxygen

How have humans contributed to an increase in carbon dioxide levels in the past 100 years?

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is an important green house gas. A small increase in the concentration of this gas can lead to the global rise in the surface temperature. Over the last 100 years, this gas has increased significantly. One of the main cause behind this the anthropogenic activities.

After the setup of the industrial revolution, there has been a large increase in this CO₂ concentration, as there are numerous large factories and indutries that releases this harmful gases. In addition to this, the burning up of fossil fuel also is responsible for the emission of large amount of carbon into the atmosphere.

Deforestation also is another cause, because trees are no longer there in vast quantities which takes up a large number of atmospheric carbon and in return liberates plenty of oxygen.

Thus, the activities done by man over the last century has led to the increase in the concentration of CO₂ into the atmosphere.

The concentration of the stock solution she needs is 100 milli molar (mm) and she needs to make 1.2 milli liters (ml) solution o

Lera25 [3.4K]

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution
molarity of stock solution to be prepared - 100 x 10⁻³ mol/L
volume of stock solution to be prepared - 1.2 mL
Therefore number of moles in 1.2 mL - 100 x 10⁻³ mol/L x 1.2 x 10⁻³ L
number of moles of drug - 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mol
mass of drug required - 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mol x 181.6 g/mol = 21. 8 mg
21.8 g of drug is required to make the stock solution

The protein lysozyme unfolds at a transition temperature of 75.5°C, and the standard enthalpy of transition is 509 kJ mol-1. Cal

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

0.4774 KJ/K.mol

Explanation:

We are told that the transition at 25.0°C occurs in three steps. Steps i, ii and iii.

Thus;

the entropy of unfolding of lysozyme = ΔS_i + ΔS_ii + ΔS_iii

Now,

C_p,m(unfolded protein) = C_p,m(folded protein) + 6.28 kJ/K.mol

Now, for the first process, ΔS_i is given as;

ΔS_i = C_p,m × In(T2/T1)

We are given;

T1 = 25°C = 25 + 273.15K = 298.15 K

T2 = 75.5°C = 75.5 + 273.15 K=348.65 K

Thus;

ΔS_i = C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)

Now, for the third process, ΔS_iii is given as;

ΔS_iii = (C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(T1/T2)

Thus;

ΔS_iii = (C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(298.15/348.65)

Now, we don't know C_pm. So, we have to find a way to eliminate it. We will do it by rewriting In(298.15/348.65) in such a way that when ΔS_iii is added to ΔS_i, C_p,m will cancel out. Thus;

In(298.15/348.65) can also be written as;

In(348.65/298.15)^(-1) or

- In(348.65/298.15)

Thus;

ΔS_iii = - [(C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(298.15/348.65)]

Now, let's add ΔS_iii to ΔS_i to get;

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] + [(-C_p,m - 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(348.65/298.15)]

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] - [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] - [6.28In(348.65/298.15)]

First 2 terms will cancel out to give;

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = -6.28In(348.65/298.15)

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = -0.9826 KJ/K.mol

Now,for process ii;

ΔS_ii = standard enthalpy of transition/Transition Temperature

Thus;

ΔS_ii = (509 KJ/K.mol)/348.65

ΔS_ii = 1.46 KJ/K.mol

Thus;

the entropy of unfolding of lysozyme = ΔS_i + ΔS_ii + ΔS_iii = -0.9826 + 1.46 = 0.4774 KJ/K.mol

What is the relationship between mass and gravity

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.
