Answer:

2.2 °C/m

Explanation:

It seems the question is incomplete. However, this problem has been found in a web search, with values as follow:

" A certain substance X melts at a temperature of -9.9 °C. But if a 350 g sample of X is prepared with 31.8 g of urea (CH₄N₂O) dissolved in it, the sample is found to have a melting point of -13.2°C instead. Calculate the molal freezing point depression constant of X. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. "

So we use the formula for <em>freezing point depression</em>:

  • ΔTf = Kf * m

In this case, ΔTf = 13.2 - 9.9 = 3.3°C

m is the molality (moles solute/kg solvent)

  • 350 g X ⇒ 350/1000 = 0.35 kg X
  • 31.8 g Urea ÷ 60 g/mol = 0.53 mol Urea

Molality = 0.53 / 0.35 = 1.51 m

So now we have all the required data to <u>solve for Kf</u>:

  • ΔTf = Kf * m
  • 3.3 °C = Kf * 1.51 m
  • Kf = 2.2 °C/m

In the background, you were given the reactions for the fermentation of glucose to ethanol in the production of wine from grapes
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Kombucha is a Symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), similar to mother of vinegar, containing one or more specie each of bacteria and yeast which is added to sweet tea, which jump start two processes take place. First, alcoholic fermentation during which the yeast convert sugars to alcohol under controlled conditions. After that, the bacteria converts most of this alcohol into acetic, gluconic and glucoronic and other organic acids. during both of this processes, the yeast and bacteria, feast and multiply, yielding an end beverage that is rich in variety of micro organisms and healthy acids. Source: Health-Ade.com/blog/blog/what-is-fermentation

the products formed is more rich than those of the fermentation of grapes because it is a symbiotic fermentation of yeast and bacteria

Explanation:

Kombucha is fermented slightly alcoholic, lightly effervescent sweetend black or green tea, commonly consumed for its health benefits sometimes the beverage is called kombucha tea to distinguish it from the cultures of bacteria and yeast. Kombucha is thought to have originated in manchuria where the drink is traditionally consumed or in Russia and Eastern Europe.

During the titration of a weak acid and a strong base, you would expect the ph at the endpoint of titration to be ____.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer is: b. more than 7.

The endpoint is the point at which the indicator changes colour in a colourimetric titration and that is point when titration must stop.

For example, basic salt sodium acetate CH₃COONa is formed from the reaction between weak acid (in this example acetic acid CH₃COOH) and strong base (in this example sodium acetate NaOH).

Balanced chemical reaction of acetic acid and sodium hydroxide:

CH₃COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) → CH₃COONa(aq) + H₂O(l).

Neutralization is is reaction in which an acid (in this example vinegar or acetic acid CH₃COOH) and a base react quantitatively with each other.

A certain compound was found to have the molecular formula C5H12O2. To which of the following compound classes could the compoun
IgorC [24]

Answer : The given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

Explanation :

The chemical formula of the given compound is, C_5H_{12}O_2

First we have to calculate the degree of unsaturation.

Formula used:

Degree of unsaturation = \frac{2C+2+N-X-H}{2}

where,

C = number of carbon

H = number of hydrogen

N = number of nitrogen

X = number of halogen

Degree of unsaturation = \frac{2\times 5+2+0-0-12}{2}=0

The degree of unsaturation is, 0 that means there is no double or triple bond in the compound only single bond is present between the atoms.

Thus, the given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

Which of the following best describes an advantage of cloning? Can prevent genetic diseases Can increase genetic diversity Helps
s344n2d4d5 [400]
The statement that best describes an advantage of cloning is that it can prevent genetic diseases. DNA cloning is a term used in recombinant DNA technology happens when a DNA strand belonging to one organism is transmitted into a particular type of genetic element having the capacity to self replicate. DNA cloning was developed to offer solutions related to healthcare and medical issues. Illnesses occur mostly because our body fails to produce essential proteins in ample amount is needed, these problems and other inherited problems may be solved using DNA cloning.
