Answer: (B) 0.462
Explanation: The yield Y_x/s is calculated by the formula: Yx/s=Sf−SrXs−Xr. Where Xs is the steady-state biomass concentration, Sr is the residual sucrose concentration, and Sf is the sucrose concentration in the incoming feed. Thus, Yx/s=10.0Kg/m3−2.0Kg/m34.5Kg/m3−0Kg/m3=8.04.5=0.562, but correct options should be chosen considering further rounding or calculation errors.
