Answer:

Microorganisms which are killed in the presence of normal concentrations of atmospheric oxygen are called obligate anaerobes.Some species are capable of surviving in upto 8% while other losing viability in 0.5%.They survive without oxygen as they use other molecules as electron acceptor instead of oxygen.

Explanation:In aerobic organisms oxygen is used in cellular respiration as an electron acceptor.oxygen accepts electrons and turns into water H2O or CO2.While obligate anaerobes other molecules as their primary electron acceptors.common electron acceptors used by them are Nitrate NO3-,  Sulphate SO42- or sulphur S,Iron,mercury and manganese.So in this way they undergo respiration and survive without oxygen.

What phrase from the Preamble justifies a law like the Affordable Care Act?
Alexandra [31]
<span>The Affordable Care Act which was instated during Barack Obama´s presidency and is sometimes known as Obamacare is justified by the phrase ¨for the general welfare¨ in the Preamble. This concept can be defined as holding the US government responsable for providing care for all people, not just a few elites. Therefore the Affordable Care Act, which aims to increase access to healthcare to all Americans is adhering to this phrase.</span>

Consider n2 (g) + 3h2 (g) →→ 2nh3 (g). what is the mass of nitrogen gas required to react with 0.129 g h2?
Flura [38]
The given chemical reaction given above is already balanced such that the number of atoms in the left hand side of the equation is equal to that of the right hand side. Using the dimensional analysis, proper conversion factors and the molar masses,

                    mass of nitrogen = (0.129 g H₂)(1 mol H₂/2 g H₂)(1 mol N₂/3 mol H₂)(28 g N₂/1 mol N₂)
                     mass of nitrogen = 0.602 g N₂

Therefore, 0.602 g of nitrogen will be required for he reaction.

Exactly 1.0 mol N2O4 is placed in an empty 1.0-L container and is allowed to reach equilibriumdescribed by the equation N2O4(g)↔
Vilka [71]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 1.1

Solution :  Given,

Initial moles of N_2O_4 = 1.0 mole

Initial volume of solution = 1.0 L

First we have to calculate the concentration N_2O_4.

\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{\text{Moles of }N_2O_4}{\text{Volume of solution}}

\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{1.0moles}{1.0L}=1.0M

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                           N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)

Initially                      c                 0

At equilibrium   (c-c\alpha)           2c\alpha

The expression of K_c will be,

K_c=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}

K_c=\frac{(2c\alpha)^2}{(c-c\alpha)}

where,

\alpha = degree of dissociation = 40 % = 0.4

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

K_c=\frac{(2c\alpha)^2}{(c-c\alpha)}

K_c=\frac{(2\times 1\times 0.4)^2}{(1-1\times 0.4)}

K_c=1.066\aprrox 1.1

Therefore, the value of equilibrium constant for this reaction is, 1.1

Why are the oxidation and reduction half-reactions separated in an<br> electrochemical cell?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The half-cells separate the oxidation half-reaction from the reduction half-reaction and make it possible for current to flow through an external wire.
