Which of the following best accounts for the difference in mutagenic activity between PAHs and PAHs plus liver preparation?
guapka [62]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Some poly nuclear aromatic hydrocarbons are not carcinogenic in themselves. However, when these are made to interact with living cells, enzymes in the cells could convert the polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon into a carcinogenic material such as benzo-[a]-pyrene. This can now interact adversely with the deoxyribonucleic acid of living cells leading to genetic mutation, that is, irreversible changes in the genes of organisms.

**PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK**Calculate how much energy would be necessary to convert 250.0 grams of ice at -30°C to steam at 145°C.
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Q= mc∆T(ice) + mLF(ice) + mc∆T(water) + mLV(water) + mc∆T(steam)

m=250 g = 0.25 kg = ¼ kg c(ice)= 2100 J/kg.K c(water)= 4200 J/kg.K LF(ice)= 333.7 kJ/kg LV(water)= 2256 kJ/kg c(steam)= 2080 J/kg.K

Explanation:

Q= ¼ × 2100 × (0°-(-30°)) + ¼ × 333700 + ¼ × 4200 × (100°-0°) + ¼ × 2256000 + ¼ × 2080 × (145°-100°)

Q= 15750 + 83425 + 105000 + 564000 + 23400

Q= 791575 J
