Decomposed organic matter ,mud,silt ,and sand
Explanation:
Moles of N2 = 35.0g / (28g/mol) = 1.25mol
Moles of H2 = 60.0g / (2g/mol) = 30.0mol
Since 1.25mol * 3 < 30.0mol, nitrogen is limiting.
Moles of NH3 = 1.25mol * 2 = 2.50mol.
Mass of NH3 = 2.50mol * (17g/mol) = 42.5g.
30.0mol - 1.25mol * 3 = 26.25mol.
Excess mass of H2
= 26.25mol * (2g/mol) = 52.5g.
Answer:
C. Water passes into the salt solution, dehydrating bacterial cells and making them harmless.
Explanation:
The salt solution is hypertonic to the bacterial cells and as such, water molecules will move from the bacterial cells into the salt solution, dehydrating the cells and rendering them harmless.
Option A is also true but it is irrelevant to the question asked. Option B and D are wrong.
The correct option is C.
