How much sodium nitrate is in a hotdog?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sergeu [11.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

200 ppm

Explanation:

Sodium nitrate is used as a preservative in  hotdog to preserve the colour of meat. 200 ppm of sodium nitrate (NaNO3) can be used in a hot dog. A human body can accept 3.7 mg of Sodium nitrate as per kg weight of body. So, excessive use of sodium nitrate in hot dog can harm the human body and produce diseases.

Fudgin [204]

The reaction of iron sulfide (FeS) with hydrochloric acid (HCl) results in the formation of ferrous chloride (FeCl2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. The reaction can be shown as follows:

FeS (s) + HCl(aq) ---- FeCl2(s) + H2S(g)

The bubbles indicate the formation of H2S gas which is a chemical change. The formation of bubbles indicates this change as it suggests that the reactants are combing to form products i.e. it signals a chemical reaction.

an atom has a charge of -3 in its orbitals which statement must be true in order for this atom to have no net charge
NISA [10]

Answer:

The atom must lose its three extra electrons to make the atom over all neutral.

Explanation:

The three subatomic particles construct an atom electron, proton and neutron. 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.

If an atom have -3 charge it means three more electrons are added. In order to make the atom overall neutral three more electrons must be removed so that negative and positive charge becomes equal and cancel the effect of each other and make the atom neutral.

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:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. 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

Which substance has two neutrons?<br><br> A. H-2<br><br> B. He-2<br><br> C. He-3<br><br> D. He-4
Feliz [49]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

In a Helium (He) atom, the atomic structure of the atom has 2 protons, 2 electrons and 2 neutrons. For an element X to be a Helium (He) atom, it must possess 2 protons. The number of neutrons present will determine its stability either if its probably radioactive or a natural occurring inert gas.

In option 1,

We have H-2. The symbol "H" is used to denote the element hydrogen in the periodic table and hydrogen has only 1 protons and 1 neutron making its mass number 2.

Option 2,

He -2 : here in this option, we have a helium atom, but with mass number of 2 only. Judging from the formula of mass number = protons + neutrons, we already have proton as 2, hence the number of neutrons there is zero (0)

Option 3,

He - 3 : just like in option 2, the only difference here is that the mass number is 3 hence making the number of neutrons just 1.

Option 4,

He - 4 : This option met the requirements of having 2 protons and 2 neutrons making a total of 4 which corresponds to the mass number.

Two hydrogen atoms covalently bond to form a hydrogen molecule.
ankoles [38]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

the energy of two separate hydrogen atoms decreases as they approach each other, and the single electrons on each atom are shared to form a covalent bond.
