Which group of extremophiles does thermus aquaticus belong to

Chemistry
2 answers:
Elan Coil [88]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is thermophiles.

Explanation:

Thermus aquaticus are heat resistant bacteria because these bacteria can survive under adverse environmental conditions like high temperature.

These bacteria belong to one of the most heat-loving groups of extremophiles that are thermophiles. Thermophiles are present in volcanic soil, geysers and around deep-sea vents where the temperature is extremely high.

Thermus aquaticus bacteria is used to manufacture an enzyme called Taq DNA polymerase, which is heat resistant and also an important factor in molecular biology.

Which two subatomic particles do you add together to determine the atomic mass or mass # of the atom?
raketka [301]

Answer:

Protons and Neutrons

Explanation:

The sum of number of protons and the number of neutrons is equal to the mass of an element. Mathematically, it can be given as :

M = P + N

Also, the atomic mass can be calculated by the sum of the element's isotopes as isotopes have slightly different mass numbers.

Hence, protons and neutrons add together to determine the atomic mass.

Which equation represents the total ionic equation for the reaction of HNO3 and NaOH? Upper H superscript plus, plus upper O upp
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Total Ionic equation:

H⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻ (aq) + Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(l) + Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻ (aq)

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

HNO₃ + NaOH →  NaNO₃ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

HNO₃(aq) + NaOH(aq) →  NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Total Ionic equation:

H⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻ (aq) + Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(l) + Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻ (aq)

Net ionic equation:

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(l)  

The NO₃⁻ (aq)  and Na⁺ (aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The water can not be splitted into ions because it is present in liquid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation

The thermal stability of group 2 hydroxides increases down the group ? give reasons​
VladimirAG [237]

ANSWERS:

Group 2 metal carbonates, nitrates and hydroxides decompose to heat to give the corresponding metal oxide and release CO2, NO2 and O2, and H2O respectively. The thermal stability increases down the group as theionic character of the compounds increases down the group.

What is the pH of 0.10 M NaF(aq). The Ka of HF is 6.8 x 10-4
dsp73

<u>Given information:</u>

Concentration of NaF = 0.10 M

Ka of HF = 6.8*10⁻⁴

<u>To determine:</u>

pH of 0.1 M NaF

<u>Explanation:</u>

NaF (aq) ↔ Na+ (aq) + F-(aq)

[Na+] = [F-] = 0.10 M

F- will then react with water in the solution as follows:

F- + H2O ↔ HF + OH-

Kb = [OH-][HF]/[F-]

Kw/Ka = [OH-][HF]/[F-]

At equilibrium: [OH-]=[HF] = x and [F-] = 0.1 - x

10⁻¹⁴/6.8*10⁻⁴ = x²/0.1-x

x = [OH-] = 1.21*10⁻⁶ M

pOH = -log[OH-] = -log[1.21*10⁻⁶] = 5.92

pH = 14 - pOH = 14-5.92 = 8.08

Ans: (b)

pH of 0.10 M NaF is 8.08
