A change of state (which is a physical change) can cause gas.
RMM of CaH2=20+(1x2)=22
Number of moles or formula units
=mass/RMM
=8.294/22
=0.377
D. A set of steps that help scientists gather knowledge
A word equation is a chemical reaction described using words.
A common example is the act of photosynthesis - the process plants use to make glucose (sugar) to use as 'food'.
Plants convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose.
A word equation to express this is:
Water + Carbon Dioxide → Glucose + Oxygen
The other type of equation is a symbol equation - this uses the symbols of the elements instead of the common names:
H₂O + CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
There is also a balanced version:
6H₂O + 6CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Answer:
i. Sobolo is a Ghanian drink that is produced from red hibiscus flower that has an average pH of 6.7
It contains cyanidin and anthocyanins, which is a red pigment that is red in an acidic medium and changes green when introduced in a basic medium that has a high pH
The pH at the rectum of the digestive system = 5 to 8 (Slightly basic)
Therefore, what made the stool of Akosua green is that the sobolo drink changes to green in basic solution
ii. The stool which appeared green because she took sobolo turn into bright red upon mixing with the acidic WC water because of the presence of anthocyanins in sobolo, it turns red in an acidic medium
iii. Sobolo which turns green, or blue in a basic medium and red in an acidic medium can be used as a litmus solution to test the pH of a given substance
Explanation:
Sobolo or soobolo in Ghana is a name for the Hibiscus tea or tisane, which is made from calyces of the hibiscus plant, and has a sour (tangy) taste and appears bright red in color
