Why does a carbonated soft drink lose carbonation when the container is left open?


A.Water evaporates, which favors the formation of H2CO3.

B.Pressure decreases, which favors the formation of H2CO3.

C.The open container warms up, which causes more gas to escape.

D.CO2is removed, which favors the formation of H2CO3.

<u>Answer:</u>

The bubbles in a carbonated soft drink show up when carbonic acid (H2CO3) decomposes to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). In a closed system, this equilibrium exists as:

                                         H2CO3 ⇌ CO2+ H2O


B is the correct answer.

Carbonated drinks are sealed under high pressure so when a container is left open, pressure decreases which favors the formation of carbonic acid (H2CO3). It is weak acid which decomposes releasing CO2 in the form of bubbles.

A uniform meter stick is pivoted at the 50.00 cm mark on the meter stick. A 400.0 gram object is hung at the 20.0 cm mark on the
babunello [35]

Answer:C

Explanation:

Given

mass m_1=400\ gm is at x=20\ cm mark

mass m_2=320\ gm is at x=75\ cm mark

Scale is Pivoted at x=50\ cm mark

For scale to be in equilibrium net torque must be equal to zero

Taking ACW as positive thus

T_{net}=0.4\times g\times (0.5-0.2)-0.32\times g\times(0.75-0.50)

T_{net}=0.12g-0.08g=0.04g

Therefore a net torque of 0.04 g is required in CW sense which a mass 400\ gm can provide at a distance of x_o from pivot

0.04g=0.4\times g\times x_o

x_o=0.1\ m

therefore in meter stick it is at a distance of x=60\ cm

6a. A special lamp can produce UV radiation. Which two statements
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The correct options are:

B) They have the same wave speed as visible light

D) They have a lower frequency than gamma rays.

Explanation:

B) Ultraviolet rays, commonly known as UV rays, are a type of electromagnetic ways. As electromagnetic waves, in the layman's term, are all kinds of life that can be identified, all electromagnetic waves (UV rays, visible light, infrared, radio etc) all travel with the same velocity, that is the speed of light, given as v = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

D) The frequency of all electromagnetic rays can be found by electromagnetic spectrum (picture attached below).

We can clearly see in the picture that the frequencies of UV rays lie at about 10¹⁵ - 10¹⁶ Hz which is lower than the frequency of Gamma ray, which lie at about 10²⁰ Hz.
