Answer:

(a) 1.60 × 10⁻⁹ mm³/cell

(b) 2 × 10⁻⁴ L

Explanation:

The volume of a certain bacterial cell is 1.60 μm³. Give your answers in scientific notation.

(a) What is its volume in cubic millimeters (mm³)?

The required conversion factors are:

  • 1 m = 10⁶ μm
  • 1 m = 10³ mm

\frac{1.60\mu m^{3} }{cell} .(\frac{1m}{10^{6} \mu m})^{3} .(\frac{10^{3}mm }{1m} )^{3} =1.60\times 10^{-9} mm^{3} /cell

(b) What is the volume of (exactly) 1 × 10⁸ cells in liters (L)?

The required conversion factors are:

  • 1 mm³ = 1 mL
  • 1 L = 10³ mL

1\times 10^{8} cell \times \frac{1.60\times 10^{-9} mm^{3}}{cell} \times \frac{1mL}{1mm^{3} } \times \frac{1L}{10^{3}mL } =2 \times 10^{-4} L

Will the reaction of addition to an inhibitor be fast or slow?
ad-work [718]

Answer:hope we can be friends

can i please get brainliest

Although phlorizin inhibition of Na+-glucose cotransport occurs within a few seconds, 3H-phlorizin binding to the sodium-coupled glucose transport protein(s) requires several minutes to reach equilibrium (the fast-acting slow-binding paradigm). Using kinetic models of arbitrary dimension that can be reduced to a two-state diagram according to Cha’s formalism, we show that three basic mechanisms of inhibitor binding can be identified whereby the inhibitor binding step either (A) represents, (B) precedes, or (C) follows the rate-limiting step in a binding reaction. We demonstrate that each of mechanisms A–C is associated with a set of unique kinetic properties, and that the time scale over which one may expect to observe mechanism C is conditioned by the turnover number of the catalytic cycle. In contrast, mechanisms A and B may be relevant to either fast-acting or slow-binding inhibitors.

To achieve the highest return during recrystallization of a given solid, one must: Group of answer choices Add the minimum amoun
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Addition of too much of solvent will make the solution dilute due to which the crystals will not form. Hence option D is incorrect

On the other hand adding a minimum amount of boiling solvent will give a saturated solution for recrystallization. Hence, option A is incorrect

Addition of cold solvent will lower the rate of formation of crystals. Hence, both option B and C are incorrect
