Answer:

Explanation:

A carousel can be made to rotate using different sources of energy. One may decide to use electric energy, manual effort, water energy or heat energy as in a candle carousel.

When the candle is lit, heat energy is supplied and warm air rises heating up the air near the carousel eventually causing it to start rotating.

Hence heat from the candle leads to a current of warm air that rises up, causing the carousel to start rotating.

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.

Calculate the mass, in grams, of cucl2 (mw = 134.452 g/mol) required to prepare 250.0 ml of a 6.11 % w/v cu2 (mw = 63.546 g/mol)

Sever21 [200]

6.11% w/v of Cu2+ implies that 6.11 g of Cu2+ is present in 100 ml of the solution

therefore, 250 ml of the solution would have: 250 ml * 6.11 g/100 ml = 15.275 g

# moles of Cu2+ = 15.275 g/63.546 g mole-1 = 0.2404 moles

1 mole of CuCl2 contain 1 mole of Cu2+ ion

Hence, 0.2404 moles of Cu2+ would correspond to 0.2404 moles of CuCl2

Molar mass of CuCl2 = 134.452 g/mole

The mass of CuCl2 required = 0.2404 moles * 134.452 g/mole = 32.32 grams

What is the difference between food web and food chain and what do they have in common?

abruzzese [7]

A food web is a system of interlocking and interdependent food chains.

A food chain is a hierarchical series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food.

Basically, the difference of the two is that a food web contains multiple different species in the same level that eat the animal below it's status. A food chain is one after the other.
