Explanation:

All resources used in making all products can be traced to their natural origin. What differentiates a natural product from a synthetic one is the level of processing that goes into making synthetic products.

For example, a synthetic product such as plastic is actually derived from natural product.
Instead of using the sap of rubber plants for making this product, scientists engineered a way to produce plastics from petroleum products which are derived from crude oil.
Most synthetic products are merely products of alternate source of manufacturing which are well engineered.

What is the pH of a solution has a hydrogen ion concentration of 6.3 x 10–10 M? Show work

NISA [10]

Answer:

pOH = 4.8

pH = 9.2

Explanation:

Given data:

Hydrogen ion concentration = 6.3×10⁻¹⁰M

pH of solution = ?

pOH of solution = ?

Solution:

Formula:

pH = -log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = Hydrogen ion concentration

We will put the values in formula to calculate the pH.

pH = -log [6.3×10⁻¹⁰]

pH = 9.2

To calculate the pOH:

pH + pOH = 14

We will rearrange this equation.

pOH = 14 - pH

now we will put the values of pH.

pOH = 14 - 9.2

pOH = 4.8

By means of a schematic diagram show how a bacteria cell applied to the region of a cowpea root can end up becoming a nitrate io

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Nitrifying Bacteria are a group of aerobic bacteria important in the nitrogen cycle as converters of soil ammonia to nitrates, compounds usable by plants. An example is nitrosomonas or nitrobacter and species in that family.

The schematic diagram is attached below, which summarises the oxidation of ammonia or free nitrogen in the soil to nitrates for the cowpea plant's utilisation.
