Why MacConkey agar is solid at room temperature while MacConkey broth remains Liquid at room Temperature?

MacConkey agar is solid at room temperature because it is a gel-like polysaccharide. Broth that has 1.5 percent agar in it and is heated up will become a liquid.

Which type of lipid stores extra energy and is liquid at room temperature?
Triglyceride
Where is the capillary tube and bulb in a thermometer?
The capillary tube is the hollow opening inside the thermometer that the liquid rises or lowers in so that you can read the temperature. The bulb is the bottom portion that holds the liquid and the part you use for contact to get a temperature reading. Calvin B.
Is it possible to melt a tryptic soy agar slant to make a tryptic soy broth?
No. Agar is a solid at room temperature and would just become solid again. A TSB does not contain agar and therefore can be liquid at room temperature.
What are unsaturated fats in the form of liquid called?
Because of the kinks in the hydrocarbon tails, unsaturated fats can't pack as closely together, making them liquid at room temperature.
Are All lipids are solid at room temperature?
No. Lipids is a general term for various types of fatty acids. If a lipid is saturated, then it is a saturated fat and is solid at room temperature (saturated means it has the maximum number of hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atoms in the atomic structure). If the lipid is unsaturated, then it is an oil that is a liquid at room temperature. Remember: lipids are a broad term covering any fat soluble substances such as fats, oils, fat soluble vitamins, waxes, etc. No! Lipids are a big - and kinda vague - group. Between them, they vary greatly in their physical properties. Oleic acid, a very common lipid, is liquid at room temperature. I'm sure there are many, many more that are the same way.
Which substance remains a liquid over a largest temperature range?
Water remains a liquid over a large temperature range.
Boiling liquid maintains a constant temperature?
The boiling point temperature remains constant because liquids evaporate at this point. If the temperature drops the liquid will no longer boil. At a higher temperature the vapor becomes hotter, not the liquid.
A boiling liquid maintains a constants temperature because?
The boiling point temperature remains constant because liquids evaporate at this point. If the temperature drops the liquid will no longer boil. At a higher temperature the vapor becomes hotter, not the liquid.
The what remains constant when a liquid reaches boiling point?
The temperature. A liquid will increase in temperature until it reaches the boiling point temperature. At this temperature the liquid will become a gas. Under normal circumstances, the liquid cannot get any hotter than the boiling point without becoming a gas. So the liquid remains the same temperature until it has all boiled away.
Which matter remains liquid at room temperature?
Alcohol, water, oil, and mercury come to mind.
What happen to the temperature when ice is heated?
During a phase change (from solid to liquid, as in melting and also from liquid to gas as in boiling) the temperature remains constant, as all of the energy is going to affecting the change, rather than raising the temperature. Once it has changed from solid to liquid, the liquid can then raise in temperature.
What is the temperature of the waters in Antarctica?
So long as the water remains liquid, the temperature measures between 27 and 32 decrees F.
Which metal remains liquid at room temperature?
Aneýtectic alkali alloys and some mid p-block mixtures melt at room temperature or above, and eýtectic below.
What happen to the temperature boiling water as it's boil?
When water is boiling, the temperature remains constant, as the energy it is absorbing is being used to change the liquid water into water vapor.
Latent heat of fusion is the heat released when?
a solid melts (and the liquid remains at the temperature of the solid).
Is propanone a liquid or solid at room temperature?
propanone is liquid at room temperature
Boiling liquid maintains a constant temperature because?
The boiling point temperature remains constant because liquids evaporate at this point. If the temperature drops the liquid will no longer boil. At a higher temperature the vapor becomes hotter, not the liquid.
