Answer:

Mass percent of food dyes  = 0.0616%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of candy = 47.9 g

Calories = 240

Mass of fat = 10 g

Mass of carbohydrate = 34 g

Mass of protein = 2 g

Mass of food dyes = 29.5 mg

Mass percent of food dyes = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the mg into g.

Mass of food dyes = 29.5 mg × 1g /1000 mg = 0.0295 g

Mass percent of food dyes  = mass of food dyes / total mass× 100

Now we will put the values.

Mass percent of food dyes  = 0.0295 g / 47.9 g × 100

Mass percent of food dyes  =  0.000616 × 100

Mass percent of food dyes  = 0.0616%

Which of the temperatures below is most likely to be the boiling point of water at 880 torr?view available hint(s)which of the t
Luden [163]
Boiling point<span>  is the </span>temperature<span> at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the surrounding pressure.

Above boiling point point, liquid get converted into vapour.

Now, boiling point of water is 100 oC at room pressure. Room pressure is equal to 760 torr. Thus, at 100 oC, vapour pressure of water becomes equal to 760 torr.

Now, if external pressure is increased to 880 torr, more heat is to be supplied so that vapour pressure of water equals 880 torr.

So, at 880 torr, boiling point of water will be more than 100 oC. In present case, most like the boiling point of water is equal to 105 oC.
