Answer:
C
Explanation:
Charles law states that volume of gas is directly proportional to temperature at constant pressure
V/T = k
where V - volume , T - temperature and k - constant
\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}
T1
V1
=
T2
V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
in the question it states that the temperature has been increased from 278 K to 231 K but it should actually be temperature is decreased from 278 K to 308 K
substituting the values in the equation
\frac{417cm^{3} }{278K} = \frac{V}{308 K}
278K
417cm
3
=
308K
V
V = 462 cm³
the answer should be C. 462 cm³
Answer:
in the water, plants and small organisms like plankton take up mercury through passive surface absorption or through food intake. ... Methylmercury biomagnifies through the food chain as predators eat other organisms and absorb the contaminants that their food sources contained.

ANSER TO #11 Large convection currents in the aesthenosphere transfer heat to the surface, where plumes of less dense magma break apart the plates at the spreading centers, creating divergent plate boundaries.
As the plates move away from the spreading centers, they cool, and the higher density basalt rocks that make up ocean crust get consumed at the ocean trenches/subduction zones. The crust is recycled back into the aesthenosphere.Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere.
The aesthenosphere (70 ~ 250 km) is part of the mantle, the middle sphere of the Earth that extends to 2900 km. It contrasts with the more rigid lithosphere, the outer shell of the Earth (0 ~ 70 km) that contains the continental crust (made up of less dense granitic rocks) and the oceanic crust (more dense basaltic rocks) that are broken up into more than a dozen rigid plates.

Answer:
C. Water passes into the salt solution, dehydrating bacterial cells and making them harmless.
Explanation:
The salt solution is hypertonic to the bacterial cells and as such, water molecules will move from the bacterial cells into the salt solution, dehydrating the cells and rendering them harmless.
Option A is also true but it is irrelevant to the question asked. Option B and D are wrong.
The correct option is C.
