Please Help! Suppose that you place exactly 100 bacteria into a flask containing nutrients for the bacteria and that you find the following data at 37 °C:
Incorrect Question 20 of 20 Map University Science Books General Chemistry 4th Edition McQuarrie Rock Gallogly presented by Sapling Learning Suppose that you place exactly 100 bacteria into a flask containing nutrients for the bacteria and that you find the following data at 37 °C: What is the order of the rate of t (min) Number of bacteria production of the bacteria? 100 19.0 O zero order 200 38.0 400 first order 57.0 800 1600 76.0 O second order What is the rate constant for the process? How many bacteria will be present after 152 min? units Number Number bacteria minExplanation / Answer
K= (2.303/t)log(a/(a+x))
k= (2.303/19)log(200/100)
=0.0364min^-1
From the above data every 19 min the rate of production becomes double
1600--------------(76+19=95)-------3200-----------(95+19=114)-----------6400-------------------(114+19=133)--------------------12800----(133+19=152)----------25600
after 152 mint the bacteria is found tobe 25600
