To determine: The surface to volume ratio for the spherical bacterium Neisseria gonorrhea of diameter
Introduction:
Metabolism refers to the sum total of all the life-sustaining chemical reactions taking place in a cell. Metabolism provides energy for basic life processes, eliminates nitrogenous wastes from the body, and makes building blocks of the body. Metabolism consists of two basic processes: catabolism and anabolism.

In order for the reaction to be catalyzed the propylene molecules must first adsorb onto the surface. In order to completely cover the surface of a piece of platinum that has an area of 1.50 cm² with propylene, a total of 3.45 x 10¹7 molecules are needed. Determine the mass of the propylene molecules that have been absorbed onto the platinum surface.arrow_forwardChem 141, Dr. Haefner 2.
