Answer:

C. Differential.

Explanation:

Differential media are bacteriological growth media that contain specific ingredients to allow one to distinguish selected species or categories of bacteria by visual observation. Examples of differential media includes:

Blood agar (used in strep tests) contains bovine heart blood that becomes transparent in the presence of β-hemolytic organisms such as Streptococcus pyogenes and Staphylococcus aureus.

Eosin methylene blue is differential for lactose fermentation.

Streptococcuseosin methylene blue (EMB), which is differential for lactose and sucrose fermentation.

An organic compound is composed of 38.7% C, 9.70% H, 51.6% O. The compound has a molecular formula mass of 62.0g/mol.
Tcecarenko [31]

<span>B)<span>C2H6O<span>2
</span></span></span>
First, convert each percentage to grams: 38.7g, 9.70g, and 51.6g. 
Next, calculate the number of moles of each element, based on the number of grams given.
C = 3.23 mol
H = 8.91 mol
O = 3.23 mol
Set up the ratio of moles of each element:
C3.34H9.70O3.23. Convert the decimals to whole numbers by dividing by the smallest subscript, 3.23.
The empirical formula is CH3O.
Now, compute the formula mass, which is 31. Finally, divide the molecular mass by the formula mass, 62/31 = 2. Multiple the subscripts by 2 to get the molecular formula.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

In comparison to Part 1 of this experiment, we observed similar reactions when determining the make up of our unknown. When testing for Mn2+ we observed a color change that resulted in a darker brown/red color, when testing for Co2+ we observed the formation of foamy bubbles but we could not conclude that a gas had formed, when testing for Fe3+ the result was a liquid red in color, when testing for Cr3+ we observed no change, when testing for Zn2+ we observed the formation of a pink/red liquid, when testing for K+ we observed the formation of a precipitate, when testing for Ca2+ we observe the formation of a precipitate. Sources of error may have occurred when observing whether or not an actual reaction had taken place or not, using glassware that wasn't fully cleaned, or the accidental mix of various other liquids in the lab
