Answer:

Hey mate, here is your answer. Hope it helps you.

HCOOH + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HCOO-

Explanation:-

A strong acid is one which completely dissociates into its corresponding ions in aqueous medium.

In contrast, a weak will only partially dissociate such that there is an equilibrium between the dissociated ions and the undissociated acid.

In the given examples:

HCl, HCO3- and H2CO3 are all strong acids. However, HCOOH i.e. formic acid is a weak acid which dissociates in water to form H3O+ and formate ion, HCOO-

HCOOH + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HCOO-

Assuming that the density of vinegar is 1.005 g/mL, calculate the molarity of acetic acid in vinegar from your average value for

Lapatulllka [165]

We can divide this problem into 4 steps:
Step 1: Calculate mass of one liter solution from the density
Mass of solution = 1000 ml soln x $\frac{1.005g soln}{1 mL}$ =1005 g soln
Step 2: Calculate the mass of acetic acid
Mass of CH₃COOH = 1005 g soln x (5.2 g / 100 g soln) = 52.26 g acetic acid
Step 3: Calculate the moles of acetic acid:
52.26 g acetic x (1 mole acetic / 60 g acetic) = 0.871 mol
step 4: Calculate the molarity of acetic acid:
molarity = moles of acetic / liters of soln = 0.871 / 1 L = 0.871 mole / L

Which two structures play direct roles in permitting bacteria to adhere to each other or to other surfaces?

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: capsule and fimbriae

Explanation:

Many prokaryotes have sticky outermost layer called the capsule.It is made up of polysaccharides and it helps them clinging to each other or to other surfaces around them.It also helps prevent the cell from drying out.

Fimbriae,also known as attachment pilus,used by bacteria to adhere to one and other,animal cells or to any inanimate objects.
