bacterial population to double in about 15 hours

Alika [10]2 years ago

Answer:

A) 12 hours approximately

Duplication times vary depending on the microorganism in question.

Explanation:

Bacterial growth is the division of a bacterium into two daughter cells in a process called binary fission. Assuming that no case of mutation occurs, the resulting daughter cells will be genetically identical to the original cell. In this way the duplication of the bacterial population takes place.  The bacterial population experiences exponential growth.

A compound is found to be 30.45% n and 69.55 % o by mass. if 1.63 g of this compound occupy 389 ml at 0.00°c and 775 mm hg, what
Charra [1.4K]
1) mass composition

N: 30.45%
O: 69.55%
   -----------
   100.00%

2) molar composition

Divide each element by its atomic mass

N: 30.45 / 14.00 = 2.175 mol

O: 69.55 / 16.00 = 4.346875

4) Find the smallest molar proportion

Divide both by the smaller number

N: 2.175 / 2.175 = 1

O: 4.346875 / 2.175 = 1.999 = 2

5) Empirical formula: NO2

6) mass of the empirical formula

14.00 + 2 * 16.00 = 46.00 g

7) Find the number of moles of the gas using the equation pV = nRT

=> n = pV / RT = (775/760) atm * 0.389 l / (0.0821 atm*l /K*mol * 273.15K)

=> n = 0.01769 moles

8) Find molar mass

molar mass = mass in grams / number of moles = 1.63 g / 0.01769 mol = 92.14 g / mol

9) Find how many times the mass of the empirical formula is contained in the molar mass

92.14 / 46.00 = 2.00

10) Multiply the subscripts of the empirical formula by the number found in the previous step

=> N2O4

Answer: N2O4

Answer: C) a redox reaction that produces an electric current

Explanation:

Chemical cell is a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produced in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. The cell consists of the negative terminal called as anode where oxidation takes place and a positive terminal called as cathode where reduction takes place.

Electrolytic cell is a device which is used to carry out chemical reactions by the use of electrical energy. The cell consists of the negative terminal called as cathode where reduction takes place and a positive terminal called as anode where oxidation takes place.

Cytotoxic t cells can attack target cells with which chemical weapons?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

secrete cytotoxic substance which triggers apoptosis of target cell.

Explanation:

Cytotoxic T cells have cell surface receptor which recognizes the antigen present on the receptor of target cell. This interaction initiates the process of killing of target cell.

After interaction cytotoxic t cell release cytotoxic substance called granzyme and perforin. Granzyme triggers apoptosis through the activation of caspases or by making the release of cytochrome c and activation of the apoptosome.

Perforin make pores in the cell and its action is similar to complement membrane attack complex. Therefore cytotoxic substances are released by Tc cells which trigger apoptosis of target cell.
