The instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 11.8 psipsi . You know that standard atmo

spheric pressure is 14.7 psipsi, so the booklet must mean 11.8 psipsi above atmospheric pressure. At what temperature in degrees Celsius will your food cook in this pressure cooker set on "high"?

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature at which the food will cook is 219.14°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=14.7psi\\T_1=273K\\P_2=(14.7+11.8)psi=26.5psi\\T_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{14.7psi}{273K}=\frac{26.5psi}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\frac{26.5\times 273}{14.7}=492.14K

Converting the temperature from kelvins to degree Celsius, by using the conversion factor:

T(K)=T(^oC)+273

492.14=T(^oC)+273\\\\T(^oC)=219.14^oC

Hence, the temperature at which the food will cook is 219.14°C

Cells are microscopic. What does that mean?
yaroslaw [1]

Think of a microscope. Microscopic items/beings can only be seen under a microscope. You can also see that they would be very small, because micro = small.

Predict whether the pHpH at the equivalence point for each titration will be acidic, basic, or neutral. Predict whether the at t
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

pH at the equivalence point for titration of HF and HCl will be basic and neutral respectively.

Explanation:

pH at equivalence point depends on hydrolysis equilibrium of conjugated base present in mixture.

\Rightarrow Neutralization reaction: HF+OH^{-}\rightleftharpoons F^{-}+H_{2}O

    Hence, at equilibrium, F^{-} is present in mixture.

    Hydrolysis reaction: F^{-}+H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons HF+OH^{-}

Here HF is an weak acid and OH^{-} is a strong base, So, resultant pH of the           solution will be basic.

\Rightarrow Neutralization reaction: HCl+OH^{-}\rightleftharpoons Cl^{-}+H_{2}O

    Hence, at equilibrium, Cl^{-} is present in mixture.

    Hydrolysis reaction: Cl^{-}+H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons HCl+OH^{-}

Here HCl is a strong acid and OH^{-} is a strong base, So, resultant pH of the           solution will be neutral.
