Chemical energy it is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of molecules
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. So, due to the like charges of protons there occurs electrostatic force of repulsion inside the nucleus of the atom.
But due to similar number of neutrons and protons a force that is able to bind both of them together is known as strong nuclear binding energy.
This force is strong enough that it is able to overcome electrostatic force of repulsion. But when there is great difference in the number of protons and neutrons then binding force is not strong enough.
Hence, the atom becomes unstable and undergoes radioactive decay. So, this means weak forces are responsible for radioactive decay.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement which best describes Yanni’s error is that the strong force is responsible for radioactive decay.
First, let calculate the volume of the rod shaped-bacteria:
S = length of the bacteria * surface of its side = 4.1 * (0.45 *0.45 * 3.14) = 2.6 µm3
Now, let's convert the moles into molecules (with Avogadro's law):
0.0037mol/L = 0.0037 * 6.023 *10^23 = 2.22 *10^21 molecules / L
Now let's convert The volume and the concetrnation into µm3 (molecules / µm3)
1 L = 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3 = 1000000 mm3 = 10^9 µm3
so 2.22 *10^21 molecules / L = 2.22 10^ 12 molecules / µm3
The answer is 2.22 10^ 12 molecules / µm3
