The pH of milk lowers as it turns into curd due to the formation of lactic acid.

Fresh milk is considered to be slightly acidic, having a pH lower than 7. Milk is converted into curd, the thickened or solid part of milk after the milk sours, through the process of fermentation. The lactic acid bacteria, such as Lactobacillus, converts lactose or the sugar present in milk into lactic acid, causing the milk to taste sour. The increase in the concentration of lactic acid results in the increase of hydronium ions which lowers the pH of the milk.

Classify each of the following as a homogeneous mixture, heterogeneous mixture, element, or compound:
dexar [7]
<span>a) Table salt: it is a compound. A compound is a combination of atoms in fixed proportions.Table salt is NaCl, which means that table salt is a compound of 1 atom of Na and 1 atom of Cl and not other thing. b) Blood: is an homogeneous mixture: it is a mixture of many compounds which can not be easily distinguished or separated, you need microscopes or very special physical methods to distinguish or separate the different compounds of blood. d) Steel: it is a special king of homogeneous mixture (it is called an alloy) which, as in the case of blood, cannot be distinguished or separated easily. d) Planet earth: it is a heterogeneous mixture. You can easily distinguish many of the compounds of the planet Earth: water, oxygen, carbon,...</span><span />

When 5.0 moles of butane react completely?
Korolek [52]

Moles of Carbondioxide-CO₂ produced = 20 moles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The combustion of hydrocarbons with excess oxygen will produce carbon dioxide and water(CO₂+H₂O), whereas if there is not much oxygen, carbon monoxide and water(CO+H₂O) will be obtained.

The reaction coefficient in a chemical equation shows the mole ratio of the reacting compounds

Reaction (combustion of butane) :

<em>2C₄H₁₀+13O₂⇒8CO₂+10H₂O</em>

Butane reacts completely, then Butane is the limiting reactant and oxygen as the excess reactant, so the moles of Carbon dioxide are based on the butane moles as the limiting reactant.

moles of butane - C₄H₁₀ = 5 moles

From the reaction, the mol ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ : 2 : 8, so mol CO₂ :

\tt \dfrac{8}{2}\times 5~moles=20~moles
