Fruits and vegetables exposed to air begin to brown because of a chemical reaction in their cells. This may result in these foods being thrown out. Some people have found that adding lemon juice (citric acid) to apple slices keeps them from turning brown. The prevention of browning is likely the result of *
increasing the concentration of enzymes
increase in the temperature
slowing the rate of enzyme reaction
maintaining the pH

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

slowing the rate of enzyme action

Explanation:

Answer 2

The prevention of fruits browning is the result of :

>slowing the rate of enzyme reaction

How is the browning of fruits prevented?

The browning of fruits can be slowed down by preventing the enzyme from working properly. Lemon juice contains an acid which can stop enzymes from working properly. For example, water and sugar in jam prevents oxygen in the air to reach enzymes and hence protects from browning.

Always keep cut fruits such as apples, pears and peaches from turning brown by coating them with an acidic juice such as lemon or orange.

The enzyme that is responsible for the browning is called polyphenol oxidase. PPO enzyme in the presence of oxygen changes substances known as phenolic compounds, through oxidation, into quinones.

On the periodic table, gold has the atomic number 79. This means that

Answers

Answer:

it has 79 protons

Explanation:

the atomic number is equal to the number of protons an element has.

On the periodic table, gold has the atomic number 79. This means that the gold has a total of 79 protons present inside its nucleus, as the number of protons signifies the atomic number.

What is the atomic number?

The total number of protons present in an atom is known as the atomic number of that atom.

The atomic number has no correlation either with the number of neutrons or the number of electrons present inside an atom

The current periodic table divides elements into groups according to their increasing atomic numbers.

The atomic number of gold is 79 on the periodic table. This indicates that the gold's nucleus has 79 protons in total, where the number of protons represents the atomic number.

Answers

Answer:

Density

Explanation:

Density of a substance is the mass per unit volume of the substance.

Mass is the amount of particles contained in a matter

Volume is the space occupied by the substance;

 To find density, we simply use;

          Density  = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]  

 So;

 Mass  = Density x Volume

   From;

            M = D x V

M is the mass

D is the is the density

V is the volume

What are [H3O+], [OH?], and pH in a solution with a pOH of 11.17? Make sure your answers are given to the correct number of significant figures.
[H3O+] = __ x 10 __ M
[OH?] = __ x 10 __ M
pH= __

Answers

Answer:

[OH⁻]= 6.76*10⁻¹² M

pH= 2.83

[H₃O⁺]= 1.48*10⁻³

Explanation:

The pOH (or potential OH) is a measure of the basicity or alkalinity of a solution that indicates the concentration of hydroxyl ions [OH-] present in a solution. The pOH is defined as the logarithm of the concentration of OH- ions, with the sign changed:

pOH= -log[OH⁻]

In this case, pOH= 11.17. So:

11.17= -log [OH⁻]

Solving:

-11.17=log [OH⁻]

10⁻¹¹ ¹⁷= [OH⁻]

6.76*10⁻¹² M= [OH⁻]

pH, short for hydrogen potential, is a parameter that indicates the concentration of hydrogen ions [H⁺] or [H₃O⁺] that exist in a solution and is calculated as the logarithm of the concentration of H⁺ ions, with the sign changed:

pH= -log[H⁺]= -log[H₃O⁺]

The relationship between pH and pOH can be established by the expression:

pH + pOH= 14

In this case, being pOH=11.17:

pH + 11.17= 14

and solving you get:

pH= 14 - 11.17

pH= 2.83

Finally,  replacing this value in the definition of pH:

2.83= -log [H₃O⁺]

and solving you get:

-2.83= log [H₃O⁺]

10⁻² ⁸³= [H₃O⁺]

1.48*10⁻³=  [H₃O⁺]

A sumo wrestler is 330 pounds. How much force does the earth exert on him? (Weight)

Answers

Answer:

1336.4N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the sumo wrestler  = 330pounds

Unknown:

Amount of force the earth exerts on the wrestler  = ?

Solution:

The force the earth exerts on the wrestler is the weight of the man;

  Weight  = mg

where;

 m is the mass

 g is the acceleration due to gravity

   Now,

 let us convert from pounds to kg;

          2.2pounds  = 1kg

         300 pounds  = [tex]\frac{300}{2.2}[/tex]   = 136.4kg

Weight  = 136.4kg x 9.8m/s²  = 1336.4N

How much heat is required to heat 1.6g of ice from -16c to steam at 112c?

Answers

Answer:

Total heat ≅ 49.07 kJ

Explanation:

Given that:

mass = 1.6 g = 0.016 kg

Initial temperature = - 16 ° C

final temperature = 112° C

specific heat for ice = 2.06 kJ/kgC

specific heat of water = 4.186 kJ/kgC

heat fusion of ice = 334 kJ/kg

specific heat for steam = 2.1 kJ/kgK

heat of vaporization of water = 2256 kJ/kg

To heat ice from -16 ° C to 0 ° C

Q₁ =  2.06 kJ/kgC × 0.016 kg ×  16 ° C

Q₁ =  0.52736 kJ

To melt Ice at 0° C

Q₂= 334 kJ/kg × 0.016 kg = 5.344 kJ

To heat water from 0° C to  100° C

Q₃ = 4.186 kJ/kgC × 0.016 kg  × 100° C

Q₃ = 6.6976 kJ

To vaporize water to steam at 100° C

Q₄ = 2256 kJ/kg × 0.016 kg = 36.096 kJ

To heat steam from 100C to 112° C

Q₅ = 2.1 kJ/kgC × 0.016 kg × 12 C

Q₅ = 0.4032 kJ

Total heat = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃ + Q₄  + Q₅

Total heat =  (0.52736 +  5.344 +  6.6976 + 36.096 + 0.4032) kJ

Total heat = 49.06816  kJ

Total heat ≅ 49.07 kJ

Answers

Answer:

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH

Explanation:

In order to decide which base is strongest we need to calculate its PKb

PKb = -log [Kb]

A large Kb value and small PKb value gives the strongest base

 Compound                   Kb                           PKb      

(A) C6H5NH2 -         4 x 10^-10                      9.349

(B) NH3                     1.76x 10^-5                    4.754

(C) CH3NH2              4.4x 10^-4                     3.357

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH   8.6x 10^-4                     3.066

(E) C5H5N                  1.7x10^-9                      8.77  

Clearly (CH3CH2)2NH is the strongest base.

What information do the reduction potentials of two elements give about a
redox reaction between those elements?
A. Which element will be oxidized and which will be reduced
B. The electronegativity difference between the two elements
C. Whether electrons will be gained or lost by the oxidized atom
D. Which element is more commonly found in nature

Answers

The information that the reduction potentials of two elements give about a redox reaction between those elements is which element will be oxidized and which will be reduced. The correct option is A.

What is a redox reaction?

Redox reactions include a change in the oxidation state of the substrate. Loss of electrons or a rise in an element's oxidation state is considered to be oxidation.

Gaining electrons or lowering an object's or its atoms' oxidation state are both considered reductions. A chemical reaction known as an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction includes the exchange of electrons between two substances.

The reduction potential tells about the element that will be oxidized ad which will be reduced in the redox reaction.

Thus, the correct option is A. Which element will be oxidized and which will be reduced.

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a material in 1°C.

Thus, the sample with the higher specific heat capacity is the sample that will require more energy to increase its temperature in 1°C, suffering the smallest change in temperature.

Thus, is the aluminium with 0.900J/gK the element that is most likely to undergo the smallest change in temperature:
