Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
A supercritical fluid has good properties for both liquid and as for extraction properties, the advantages then include:
- The fact that it has a lower viscosity than liquid CO2 allowing it to move through and around coffee beans more thoroughly with creating back pressure
- Its density is comparable to that of liquid CO2 meaning there is much CO2 per litre as there is liquid form making it more efficient
- It has a higher diffusivity than liquid CO2 which aids with penetration of the coffee beans on a molecular level
This experiment would not work with tea leaves because they also contain caffeine
Answer:
the molarity is 3.68 moles/L
Explanation:
the molality of the solution of sucrose is
m= moles of glucose / Kg of solvent (water)= 6.81 ,
since the molecular weight of glucose is 180.156 gr/mole , then per each kilogram of solvent there is
6.81 moles*180.156 gr/mole + 1000 gr of water = 2226.86 gr of solution
from the density
volume of solution = mass of solution/density = 2286.86 gr / 1.2 gr/ml = 1855.71 ml
therefore there is 1000 gr of water in 1855.71 ml
then the molarity M is
M= moles of glucose / L of solution = (moles of glucose / Kg of solvent) * (Kg of solvent/L of solution) = 6.81 moles/Kg * 1Kg/1.85 L = 3.68 moles/L
M= 3.68 moles/L
Note:
- Would be wrong in this case to assume density of water = 1 Kg/L since the solution is heavily concentrated in glucose and therefore the density of water deviates from its pure value.
Describe how the catalyst, zymase speeds up the
reaction shown
The catalyst zymase speeds up the
reaction by catalyzing the fermentation of sugar into ethanol and carbon
dioxide. It is mostly present in yeasts.
