Why does baking bread require a constant input of heat from the oven?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vladimir2022 [97]3 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Baking of bread is an endothermic process. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In order to bake bread a constant supply of heat energy is required. Since absorption of heat takes place while bread gets baked this is an endothermic reaction. <em>The microbe used in bread making is yeast which helps in puffing up the bread. </em>

Puffing up of bread is caused by the release of carbon dioxide by yeast when it feeds on the sugars in the dough.  For yeast to become active it should come in contact with warm water. <em>Thus heat is an essential input in bread making process.  </em>

Explain why the electron configuration of 2-3-1 represents an atom in an excited state?
baherus [9]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If we look at the electron configuration closely, we will discover that the element must have had a ground state electron configuration of 2,4.

This is because, the innermost shell usually holds two electrons while the outer shells hold eight electrons each. The four electrons must be accommodated in the second shell in the ground state configuration of the compound.

However, when the atom is excited, one electron from this shell may move to the third shell to give the excited state configuration 2-3-1 as shown in the question.

You find apiece of limestone on ahike. what substances are likely to have formed that rock?
enyata [817]

Limestone is mainly made up of calcium carbonate, CaCO3. When it is heated, it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. Calcium oxide reacts with water to produce calcium hydroxide. But if u wanna know how it is formed? It's formed by erosion and weathering which is a type of 'Sedimentary Rock'. Erosion and weathering, carried rocks and end up at the sea or ocean. Which is the end way to go! At there, rocks combined by adding more and more just under the sea. The combination of rocks made it harden. First, it was just small little eroded particles end up at the sea. But at last, it became a very hard rock which isn't easy to break!

How many particles are present in 10.0 moles of table salt?
Dima020 [189]

1.01 x 10^24 molecules.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of molecules in a given number of mole, we can simply multiply by Avogadro's number which is equal to 6.022 x 10 ^23.

Therefore,

10 molecules = 1.68 mol x (6.022 x 10^23 molecules) / (1 mol = 1.01 x 10^24) molecules.

I hope this helps :)
