3. 25. The temperatures favorable for the growth of most bacteria are
kvasek [131]

B.

about the same as for humans

Explanation:

This is why most bacteria, during research in labs, are incubated at 37 degrees centigrade, about the same as human body temperature. In addition, harmful and beneficial bacteria thrive in the human body due to the favorable temperatures for growth and reproduction. To try and fight an infection, the body also tries to raise the body temperatures above the optimal for the bacteria  growth (the reason one has a fever in case of infection).

An unknown liquid has a mass of 30.8 g, and a volume of 31.5 mL. What is the density of this liquid?
julsineya [31]

The density of the liquid is 0.98 g/mL

<h3>What is density? </h3>

The density of a substance is defined as the mass of the subtance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Density = mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the density of the liquid.

<h3>How to determine the density </h3>
  • Mass = 30.8 g
  • Volume = 31.5 mL
  • Density =?

Density = mass / volume

Density of liquid = 30.8 / 31.5

Density of liquid = 0.98 g/mL

A certain atom has 11 electrons 8 neutrons and a charge of -1. What is it’s atomic mass
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

20 amu

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

Atomic mass = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic number = Number of electrons or number of protons.

In given question it is stated that atom has 11 electrons and -1  charge it means this atom has 12 electrons in neutral state.

Thus it has 12 protons because number of electrons and protons are always equal.

Atomic mass of given atom:

Atomic mass = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic mass = 12 + 8 = 20 amu
