Answer:

Esters present in them.

Explanation:

Esters are organic compounds which are considered to be derivative of carboxylic acids. They are formed from reaction of carboxylic acid with a corresponding alcohol.

The general formula of an ester is RCOOR'.

The fruits generally get their odors and taste due to present of these natural esters.

For example: An ester called Ethyl-2-methyl butyrate is a responsible for taste and odor of fruits like apple, orange, strawberry, etc.

The taste and odors in fruits are often the result of the ester components of the fruits. Esters are organic compounds produced from the reaction of alcohol and carboxylic acid. For example, bananas have esters called isomyl acetate, citrus fruits have octyl acetates familiar in oranges, lemon, tangerine, grapefruits, etc., and many others.

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

$pH = - log [ { H_3O}^{+}]$

From the question we have

$pH = - log(3.8 \times {10}^{ - 8} ) \\ = 7.420216...$

We have the final answer as

How many grams of Fe2+ are there in 0.003109 moles of Fe2+?

Sergio [31]

Answer: 0.174 g

Explanation:

First of all understand that charge on an atom like here 2+ will not vary molar mass. because ions are formed by loss or gain of electrons and electrons do not contribute to the mass of an atom or ion. so losing or gaining electron doesnt create any difference.

molar mass of Fe, i.e. mass of 1 mole of Fe is 56 g. So, mass of 1 mole of Fe2+ will also be 56 g.

given is 0.003109 moles of Fe2+,

Use maths,

1 mole of Fe2+ weighs 56 g

So, 0.003109 moles will weigh = (56 g / 1 mol ) x 0.003109 = 0.174 g.
