Suppose that you place exactly 100 bacteria into a flask containing nutrients for the bacteria and that you find the following d

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The order of the production of bacteria is 1.

12,787 bacteria will be present after 112 min.

$0.04331 min^{-1}$ is the rate constant for the process.

Explanation:

Rate of formation of bacteria when there 100 bacteria: R

Rate of formation of bacteria when there 200 bacteria: R' =2R

Rate of formation of bacteria is directly proportional to the number of bacteria:

$\frac{R}{R'}=\frac{k[200]^x}{k[400]^x}$

$\frac{R}{2R}=(\frac{200}{400})^x$

x = 1

The order of the production of bacteria is 1.

The half life of the process = $t_{1/2}=16 minutes$

Rate constant of the process = k

For first order process k is only dependent on half life:

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{16 min}=0.04331 min^{-1}$

For the first order process the increment numbers is given ;

$N=N_o\times e^{kt}$

Where:

$N_o$ = Initial population

N = Population after time t.

We have ;

$N_o=100$

t = 112 minutes

$N=100\times e^{0.04331 min^{-1}\times 112 min}$

$N = 12,786.82\approx 12,787$

12,787 bacteria will be present after 112 min.

$0.04331 min^{-1}$ is the rate constant for the process.

Please help me, Thank you!

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

The atom shown in the image has 2 core electrons.

Electrons are the negatively charged particles within an atom. Therefore the total number of electrons surrounding the nucleus in the given specie is 7.

So;

We have 2 core electrons

And 5 valence electrons

The core electrons are the inner orbital electrons.

The valence electrons are the outermost electrons.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

In chemistry, a symbol is an abbreviation for a chemical element. Symbols for chemical elements normally consist of one or two letters from the Latin alphabet and are written with the first letter capitalised.

Earlier symbols for chemical elements stem from classical Latin and Greek vocabulary. For some elements, this is because the material was known in ancient times, while for others, the name is a more recent invention. For example, Pb is the symbol for lead (plumbum in Latin); Hg is the symbol for mercury (hydrargyrum in Greek); and He is the symbol for helium (a new Latin name) because helium was not known in ancient Roman times. Some symbols come from other sources, like W for tungsten (Wolfram in German) which was not known in Roman times.
