The substance is dead or alive is determined by response or consciousness of the substance to external stimulus.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The living organisms do have several characteristics. They are growth, reproduction, consciousness etc. But among them, consciousness is the only feature that's confined within only the living world. No non living things have this feature.

So if the scientist can find that the substance found have some response to external stimulus, then it does have life. And if it doesn't response to any sort of external stimulus, then it doesn't have life.

Thorium-234 has a half-life of 24.1 days. How much of a 100-g sample of thorium-234 will be unchanged after 48.2 days?
oee [108]
Half-life means that the matter degrades by 50% at each interval. 48.2 days is 2 intervals.

So, it would go down by 50% in the first interval, making it 50g. Then it would go down by another 50% from there, making the final amount of undecayed thorium-234 25g.

Chlorofluorocarbons such as CCl2F and CCI,F, have been linked to ozone depletion in Antarctica. In 1994, these gases were found
Ilya [14]

Answer:

a) molarity of CCl3F = 1.12 × 10^-11 mol/dm³

Molarity of CCl2F2 = 2.20 × 10^-11 mol/dm³

B) molarity of CCL3F = 7.96 × 10 ^-13 mol/dm³

Molarity of CCl2F2 = 1.55 × 10^-12 mol/dm³

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

4.14 Oxygen requirement for growth on glycerol Klebsiella aerogenes is produced from glycerol in aerobic culture with ammonia as
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

0.37 g

Explanation:

The molecular weight for Glycerol = 92

Number of Carbon atoms in glycerol (x)  C_3H_8O_3 = 3

Molecular weight of  the Biomass  ( Klebsiella aerogenes )

= CH_{1.73}O_{0.43}N_{0.24}

= \frac{23.97}{0.92}

= 26.1

From the molecular weight of the Biomass, we can deduce the Degree of reduction for the substrate(glycerol denoted as \delta _g) as follows:

= (4×1)+(1×1.73)-(2×0.43)-(3×0.24)

= 4.15

Given that the yield of the Biomass = 0.40 g

However;

C = Yield of Biomass *\frac{Molecular weight of substrate}{Molecular weight of the Biomass}

C = 0.40*\frac{92}{26.1}

C = 1.41 g

Now , the oxygen requirement can be calculated as:

= \frac{1}{4}*(n*S -  C * \delta _{g})

= \frac{1}{4}(3*4.7-1.41*4.15)

= 2.1 g/mol

Hence, we can say that the needed oxygen = 2.1 g/mol of the substrate consumed.

Now converting it to mass terms; we have:

= 2.1*\frac{number of mole of oxygen}{molecular weight of glycerol}

= 2.1 * \frac{16}{92}

= 0.3652 g

≅ 0.37 g

∴ The oxygen requirement for this culture in mass terms = 0.37 g
