Which of the following statements describes a covalent bond between Carbon and Hydrogen:

#I Life Science/ Life Sciences Group – I-V

The electrons are shared equally between the two atoms of the bond.
The electrons of the bond are pulled closer to the nucleus of Hydrogen, because its outer shell electron is closer to its nucleus than the outer shell electrons of Carbon are to its nucleus.
The electrons of the bond are pulled closer to the nucleus of Hydrogen, because its nucleus contains more protons than Carbon.
The electrons of the bond are pulled slightly closer to the nucleus of Carbon, because although its outer shell electrons are located farther away from the protons of its nucleus, it contains more protons than Hydrogen.

Yeast cells are recovered from a fermentation broth by using a tubular centrifuge. Sixty percent (60%) of the cells are recovered at a flow rate of 12 l/min with a rotational speed of 4000 rpm. Recovery is inversely proportional to flow rate. a. To increase the recovery of cells to 95% at the same flow rate, what should be the rpm of the centrifuge?

Yeast cells are recovered from a fermentation broth by using a tubular centrifuge. Sixty percent (60%) of the cells are recovered at a flow rate of 12 l/min with a rotational speed of 4000 rpm. Recovery is inversely proportional to flow rate. At a constant rpm of 4000 rpm, what should be the flow rate to result in 95% cell recovery?

Hybridoma cells immobilized on surfaces of Sephadex beads are used in a packed column for production of monoclonoal antibodies (Mab). Hybridoma concentration is approximately X = 5 g/l in the bed. The flow rate of the synthetic medium and glucose concentration are Q = 2 l/h and S0 = 40 g/l, respectively. The rate constant for Mab formation is k = 1 gX/l-d. Assume that there are no diffusion limitations and glucose is the rate limiting nutrient. Determine the volume of the packed bed for 95% glucose conversion. Bed diameter is D0 = 0.2 m. Neglect the growth of the hybridomas and assume first order kinetics.
