Why does a cake rise when you bake it? ♡

Chemistry
2 answers:
Ugo [173]3 years ago

Because baking soda reacts with the ingredients in cake resulting in trapped carbon dioxide, which give way to a rising batter due to heat. (honestly tres leches is my favorite type of cake)

The reaction of baking soda or baking powder with the liquid in the batter: These ingredients react together and cause air bubbles to form. ... Heat of the oven: The heat of the oven can cause baking powder to react further and cause more air bubbles, and the heat also sets the structure of the cake.

If I have 0.275 moles of gas at a temperature of 75 K and a pressure of 1530 mmHg, what is the volume of the gas?
Maru [420]

Answer: The volume of the gas is 0.84 Liters

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1530 mm Hg = 2.01 atm     (760mmHg=1atm)

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles = 0.275

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =75K

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

V=\frac{0.275atm\times 0.0820 Latm/K mol\times 75K}{2.01atm}=0.84L

Thus the volume of the gas is 0.84 Liters

Identify the molecules or ions below as Lewis acids, Lewis bases, or neither. If there is more than one possible site in the mol
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the molecules been referred to in the question. However, the molecules been referred to in the question is in the attachment below

Explanation:

First of all, we have to define lewis acid and lewis base.

A lewis acid is a substance that has the capacity to accept a pair of electrons. For example, H⁺. While a lewis base is a substance that is capable of donating a pair of electrons (to a lewis acid). For example, OH⁻.

Going by the definitions above, we can deduce the type of substance the molecules in the question (attachment) are

a. BF₃ (boron trifluoride) is a lewis acid because the central atom (as suggested to be focused on in the question) which is <u>boron, has the capacity to accept a pair of electrons</u>.

b. The central atom (carbon) in the compound (2-methyl propane) <u>also has the capacity to accept a pair of electrons</u> since it is positively charged (is electron deficient). Hence, it is a lewis acid.

c. The functional group in this compound (trimethyl borate) is the ether. Ethers are generally lewis bases because the oxygen atom in an ether can donate a pair of electrons from it's lone pair. However, the <u>presence of boron which is central to the compound</u> shows it is also a lewis acid, although weak (majorly due to the presence of the ethers).

Models have been created that predict world sea levels will rise if the current global temperature increases continue. If these
lesya [120]
To solve this question, think about which one of these options is a DIRECT effect of sea levels rising.

Choice A: If sea levels rise, they would start to cover up land that's at sea level, areas like beaches or coastal cities for example.

Choice B: Fossil fuels cause global warming. This is about the effects of global warming, not the causes. 

Choice C: Not relevant. It doesn't mention alternative energy at all in this.

Choice D: Again, effects, not causes (see Choice B explanation).

The correct answer is... CHOICE A

Describe your understanding of atoms and their subatomatic particles
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Atom is the building block of matter. The atom itself made up of subatomic particles electron, proton and neutron.

Explanation:

Long time ago, Greek philosopher thoughts that matter can be divided into smaller particles until a point is reached when the basic unit is obtained which can not be further sub divided. A Greek philosopher Democritus called these basic units "Atom".

Later on modern research showed that atom could be divided into smaller particles electron, proton and neutron. These smaller particles are called sub-atomic particles of atom.

Atoms are the fundamental unit of matter. Every thing in the universe that occupy space and have mass is called matter. we can say that every matter is composed of atoms. while the atom is composed of subatomic particles called electron proton and neutron.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol = e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Proton and Neutron:

An atom consist of positively charged central core (nucleus) that is made up of Proton and neutron.  Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P+  

Symbol of neutron= n0  

Mass of proton=1.672623×10-27 Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10-27 Kg

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons.
