Answer:

This question is not complete but the completed question is below

Acids naturally present in food are safe to eat because they usually are

A. Weak

B. concentrated

C. dilute

D. strong

The correct option is A.

Explanation:

Acids that are naturally found in food are organic acids. Organic acids are generally known to be weak acids. An acid is a substance that produces hydrogen ion or hydroxonium ion when dissolved in water.

A weak acid however ionizes partially (not releasing all its possible hydrogen ions) in water. Weak acids have pH that are close to neutral (pH 7) and hence are safe for consumption.

A hardware salesman measures the mass of a box containing

sattari [20]

Step $1$

find the mass of a single washer

Divide the total mass by the number of washers

$\frac{0.4168}{1000} =0.0004168\ Kg$

$0.0004168kg=4.168*10^{-4} kg$

Step $2$

Convert kg to mg

we know that

$1 kg=1*10^{6} mg$

$4.168*10^{-4}*10^{6} =4.168*10^{2}mg=416.8 mg$

therefore

the answer is

$416.8 mg$
