What is the difference between food web and food chain and what do they have in common?

abruzzese [7]

A food web is a system of interlocking and interdependent food chains.

A food chain is a hierarchical series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food.

Basically, the difference of the two is that a food web contains multiple different species in the same level that eat the animal below it's status. A food chain is one after the other.

What mass of powdered drink mix is needed to make a 0.5 M solution of 100 mL?

Maru [420]

Answer:

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed

Explanation:

<u>Step 1 :</u> Calculate moles

As given, the concentration of the drink is 0.5 M, this means 0.5 mol / L

Since the volume is 100mL, we have to convert the concentration,

⇒0.5 / 1 = x /0.1 ⇒ 0.5* 0.1 = x = 0.05 M

This means there is 0.05 mol per 100mL

<u>Step 2 </u>: calculate mass of the powdered drink

here we use the formula n (mole) = m(mass) / M (Molar mass)

⇒ since powdered drink mix is usually made of sucrose (C12H22O11) and has a molar mass of 342.2965 g/mol.

0.05 mol = mass / 342.2965 g/mol

To find the mass, we isolate it ⇒0.05 mol * 342.2965 g/mol = 17,114825g

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed

Coffee is decaffeinated industrially using supercritical (sc) CO2. One advantage to using scCO2 is that the polarity of the supe

koban [17]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

A supercritical fluid has good properties for both liquid and as for extraction properties, the advantages then include:

The fact that it has a lower viscosity than liquid CO2 allowing it to move through and around coffee beans more thoroughly with creating back pressure
Its density is comparable to that of liquid CO2 meaning there is much CO2 per litre as there is liquid form making it more efficient
It has a higher diffusivity than liquid CO2 which aids with penetration of the coffee beans on a molecular level

This experiment would not work with tea leaves because they also contain caffeine
