Explain why crushed garlic has more flavor when put in food than a whole clove of garlic.

1 answer:

5 0

A crushed garlic will have a lot of flavor when placed in food due to the surface area that is in contact with the food. When we have a large piece of garlic, only the external part touches the food and its full capacity is not used. When we reduce the size of the year by crushing the internal parts that were not in contact with the food, now they will be, in addition, liquids are also released due to the pressure exerted on the garlic and these liquids mix more easily with the food and they give it more flavor. For better understanding we can see the following figure:

Simply to understand it, in the figure, there is a clove of whole garlic represented by the rectangle that will have a height of 3 and a width of 1, the units do not matter in this case. The area that is in contact will be equal to 8, but if we divide the garlic into three equal parts, it will have a contact area greater than 12. Therefore, the more we divide the garlic, the more area it will be in contact with the food and will give it more flavor.

Are these synthesis decomposition single replacement or double replacement?

marishachu [46]

Answer:

1. Synthesis

2. Decomposition

3. Single replacement

4. Synthesis

5. Decomposition

6. Synthesis

Explanation:

Kind of a hard picture to look at but let me define each chemical reaction:

Synthesis:

a + b ---> ab In synthesis elements/compounds come together to form new compounds

Decomposition:

ab ---> a + b In decomposition a compound breaks down to form 2 elements/compounds

Single replacement:

a + bc ---> b + ac In a single replacement one element/compound takes the place of another element/compound.

Double replacement

ab + cd ---> ad + bc In a double replacement 2 compounds exchange different elements/compounds.

Now, let's go through the assignment

1. P + O2 --> P4O10 This is a synthesis reaction because the two elements (P and O) came together to form one compound.

2. HgO ---> Hg + O2 This is a decomposition reaction because HgO broke into separate elements Hg and O.

3. Cl2 + NaBr ---> NaCl + Br2 This is a single replacement reaction because chlorine (Cl) replaced the spot of bromine (Br) to bond with sodium (Na).

4. Mg + O2 ---> MgO This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (Mg and O) came together to form one compound.

5. Al2O3 ---> Al + O2 This is a decomposition reactions because Al2O3 broke into separate elements Al and O.

6. H2 + N2 ---> NH3 This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (H and N) came together to form one compound.

What is a redox reaction?

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

A reaction in which the oxidation state of one element increases and another decreases

Explanation:

Redox reaction means both oxidation and reduction take place in that reaction.

So when an element oxides its oxidation state increases and when an element reduces its oxidation state decrease.
