(a)

Answer to Problem 1QAP
The difference between oxidation and reduction electrochemical reactions is explained as below:
Explanation of Solution
Electrochemical reaction is the process that involves electron transfer between two substances mostly a metal and an electrolyte. It includes oxidation and reduction reactions that occur simultaneously. Oxidation reaction involves loss of electrons by a molecule or an atom to form a cation. This causes increase in oxidation state. Reduction reaction involves gain of electrons by an atom to form an anion. This causes decrease in oxidation state. Thus, the basic difference between oxidation and reduction electrochemical reaction involve loss and gain of electrons in an atom, respectively.

To explain:
Which reaction (oxidation and reduction) occurs at anode and which at the cathode?
(b)

Answer to Problem 1QAP
The reaction (oxidation and reduction) occurs at anode and at the cathode is explained as below.
Explanation of Solution
Oxidation and reduction reactions occur at electrodes. Anode refers to negative electrode and cathode refers to positive electrode. Oxidation takes place at the anode as it involves loss of electrons. Reduction takes place at the cathode as it involves gain of electrons.

Antibiotic P is a compound secreted by microorganism A during the stationary phase. To produce P, substrate S is required. The growth of microorganism A follows the Monod equation, with a maximum specific growth rate $\mu_m = 1 h^{-1}$ and a half-saturation constant $K_s = 700\ mg/L$.The pilot process uses a chemostat with a working volume of $1000\ L$. In this chemostat, the outflow is processed to separate microorganisms, which are then concentrated tenfold and recycled. A sterile medium containing $15\ g/L$ of substrate is supplied at a flow rate of $100\ L/h$, while the recycled flow (concentrated) contains $5\ g/L$ and is also fed into the chemostat.Microorganism A yields $0.5\ g$ of biomass per $1\ g$ of substrate consumed $(Y^M_{X/S} = 0.5\ g\ A/g\ S)$, and its death rate $(k_d)$ is negligible. Additionally, $1\ g$ of microorganism A produces $0.05\ g$ of antibiotic P per hour $(q_P = 0.05 g\ P/h\cdot g\ A)$, and $1\ g$…arrow_forward
- Create a sparse FAT filesystem image named recovery. img using mkfs fat. You can choose the size of the filesystem as long as it is less than 2GB. Copy 3 files of your choice into the filesystem, e.g., by using mcopy or by mounting the filesystem and using cp. Note that the size of each file must be between 4KB and 6KB. Pick one of the files (say foo.jpg) and identify which byte offsets and which clusters are used to store it using mshowfat. The ranges that you give should be inclusive of the last byte/cluster. Record your answers in a file named recovery.txt with a table of this form: FILENAME: foo.jpg | byte offset range | cluster range 0x04200-0x047ff 0x06400-0x0651c 2-4 | 19-19 | Now find the part of the File Allocation Table that corresponds to your choice of file. Add a hexdump of the part of File Allocation Table you find to your file recovery.txt and annotate it to show the clusters.
