What are two ways of killing bacteria?

The answer depends somewhat on where you are trying to control the bacteria. Bacteria are living things, and as such, need certain conditions to live. Most bacteria have a temperature range at which they function best; they also need "food" sources and an environment free of certain toxic chemicals. Some bacteria need oxygen; some don't. Controlling bacteria, then, means removing the things they need, or changing their environmental conditions. Changing temperature can control bacteria; this is why refrigerating, freezing, and cooking foods all reduce their numbers. Our bodies are even built to do this; a fever is the body's way of trying to make itself a "hostile environment" for infectious agents, including bacteria. (The body also has a "defense" system, in which specialized cells "patrol" the body searching out and attacking invaders; so, in a way, "having a healthy immune system" is another way to control bacteria, within the body.) Bacteria also require a "food source," so, theoretically, removing it from their environment would reduce their population. However, they are very tiny, so the "food" needed would also be in very small amounts, so this is probably not practical or realistically possible (especially if that "environment" is YOU, and they are living off the food you eat!). Adding chemicals that are poisonous to the bacteria can also control their numbers. Household cleaners, including bleach and plain-old soap, are poisonous to many kinds of bacteria, so washing surfaces with these will reduce their number. Antibiotics are poisonous to bacteria (but not to people!), which is why they are prescribed for bacterial infections of the body. These poisons may compromise the bacteria's physical structure, its ability to metabolize, or its ability to reproduce itself. Some bacteria are harmed by exposure to certain wavelengths of light, so using special "lights" that produce those wavelengths can destroy them. Many bacteria need water to survive; keeping a surface dry can help control bacterial populations. Around the house, controlling bacteria can be a matter of recognizing where they can come from and minimizing contamination (i.e., not adding more!). Many raw meats contain bacteria; reducing the number of surfaces these raw meats touch can help. Bacteria can "hide" in scratches; from their perspective, scratches or even rough surfaces are as big as valleys. From our perspective, they are so small we can't clean "inside" them, so we can't remove the bacteria. Keeping raw foods on smooth surfaces can help control bacteria, because we can wash them away more effectively. Having written all that, I'm REALLY hoping that you didn't mean "control bacteria" in the sense of "Rise up and take over the world, my minions!" LOL

Why patrol evaporates at room temperature?

Patrol (also known as petroleum ether) evaporates at room temperature because it has a low boiling point. The molecules in patrol have weak intermolecular forces, which allows them to easily escape from the liquid phase and enter the gas phase at room temperature. This rapid evaporation is why patrol is highly volatile and can be dangerous if not handled properly.


Why glucose is not soluble in petrol but soluble in water?

glucose molecule contains OH groups, which forms hydrogen bonds with OH of water molecules, therefore glucose is soluble in water. however in patrol is an hydrocarbon compounds, glucose is polar and patrol is non polar (so like dissolves only like), glucose in not soluble in patrol.
