How many bacterium are in the sixth generation?
The number of bacteria in the sixth generation of a bacterial population depends on the initial number of bacteria, as each generation doubles the population. If the initial number is 1 bacterium, the sixth generation would have 32 bacteria (2^6).
What happens to the volume of a gas when the number of moles doubles?
If the number of moles of a gas doubles at constant pressure and temperature, the volume of the gas will also double according to Avogadro's law. This is because the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles present.
How many bacteria would you have if you started with one?
Bacteria multiply by cell division, i.e. they can reproduce from one organism. How many bacteria you would have depends on a large number of factors, the main one being the time period! Other factors include type of bacteria and temperature.
What affects the elimination of bacteria from an object?
Factors that affect the elimination of bacteria from an object include the type of bacteria present (some are more resistant than others), the method of cleaning or disinfection used, contact time with the cleaning agent, and the level of contamination on the object. Temperature, pH, and humidity can also impact the effectiveness of bacterial elimination.
A culture of 10 bacteria is started and the number of bacteria will double every hour in about how many hours will there be 3000000 bacteria?
After t hours the number of bacteria is 10*2t. So 10*2t > 3000000 => 2t > 300000 => t(log2) > log(300000) => t > log(300000)/(log2) => t > 18.19.. So in just over 18 hours (or 18 hours and 12 minutes, approx).
