A package contains 1.33 lb of ground round. If it contains 29% fat, how many grams of fat are in the ground round? The book is s

aying 91g I keep getting 175g. Can someone please explain?

Answer:

To obtain the grams of fat that the ground round has, knowing that it weighs 1.33 pounds we must pass this value to grams. Since 1 pound equals 453.59 grams, 1.33 pounds equals 603.27 (453.59 x 1.33).

Now, to obtain 29 percent of 603.27, we must make the following calculation: 603.27 / 100 x 29, which gives a total of 174.94 grams.

In this way, your reasoning is correct and it is probably a mistake in the book.

A reaction occurs via the following sequence of elementary steps. What is the reaction intermediate?
Trava [24]

Answer:

C is the reaction intermediate.

Explanation:

A reaction intermediate is a molecular structure that is formed during the reaction but then is converted in the final products.

Usually, these reaction intermediates are unestable and, for that reason, the lifetime of these structures is low.

In the reaction, you can see in the first step C is produced, but also, in the second step reacts producing D. As is produced and, immediately consumed,

<h3>C is the reaction intermediate.</h3>

Calculate [H3O+] and [OH−] for each of the following solutions at 25 ∘C given the pH. pH= 8.74, pH= 11.38, pH= 2.81
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters;

pH  = 8.74

pH = 11.38

pH = 2.81

Unknown:

concentration of hydrogen ion and hydroxyl ion for each solution = ?

Solution

The pH of any solution is a convenient scale for measuring the hydrogen ion concentration of any solution.

It is graduated from 1 to 14

      pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

      pOH = -log[OH⁻]

 pH + pOH = 14

Now let us solve;

   pH = 8.74

             since  pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                           8.74 =  -log[H₃O⁺]

                           [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻^{8.74}

                             [H₃O⁺]  = 1.82 x 10⁻⁹mol dm³

       pH + pOH = 14

                 pOH = 14 - 8.74

                  pOH = 5.26

                  pOH = -log[OH⁻]

                     5.26  = -log[OH⁻]

                     [OH⁻] = 10^{-5.26}

                      [OH⁻] = 5.5 x 10⁻⁶mol dm³

2.  pH = 11.38

             since  pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                           11.38 =  -log[H₃O⁺]

                           [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻^{11.38}

                             [H₃O⁺]  = 4.17 x 10⁻¹² mol dm³

           pH + pOH = 14

                 pOH = 14 - 11.38

                  pOH = 2.62

                  pOH = -log[OH⁻]

                     2.62  = -log[OH⁻]

                     [OH⁻] = 10^{-2.62}

                      [OH⁻] =2.4 x 10⁻³mol dm³

3. pH = 2.81

             since  pH = -log[H₃O⁺]

                           2.81 =  -log[H₃O⁺]

                           [H₃O⁺] = 10⁻^{2.81}

                             [H₃O⁺]  = 1.55 x 10⁻³ mol dm³

           pH + pOH = 14

                 pOH = 14 - 2.81

                  pOH = 11.19

                  pOH = -log[OH⁻]

                     11.19  = -log[OH⁻]

                     [OH⁻] = 10^{-11.19}

                      [OH⁻] =6.46 x 10⁻¹²mol dm³

Explain how boiling and evaporating are alike and how they are differant
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The main difference between evaporation and boiling are : 1. Evaporation takes place at all temperatures, while boiling occurs at a particular temperature. 2. Evaporation takes place from the surface, whereas the entire liquid boils. 3. Evaporation can occur using the internal energy of the system, while boiling requires an external source of heat.

Air is compressed from an inlet condition of 100 kPa, 300 K to an exit pressure of 1000 kPa by an internally reversible compress
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

(a) W_{isoentropic}=8.125\frac{kJ}{mol}

(b) W_{polytropic}=7.579\frac{kJ}{mol}

(c) W_{isothermal}=5.743\frac{kJ}{mol}

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, since entropy remains unchanged, the constant k should be computed for air as an ideal gas by:

\frac{R}{Cp_{air}}=1-\frac{1}{k}  \\\\\frac{8.314}{29.11} =1-\frac{1}{k}\\

0.2856=1-\frac{1}{k}\\\\k=1.4

Next, we compute the final temperature:

T_2=T_1(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )^{1-1/k}=300K(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} )^{1-1/1.4}=579.21K

Thus, the work is computed by:

W_{isoentropic}=\frac{kR(T_2-T_1)}{k-1} =\frac{1.4*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}(579.21K-300K)}{1.4-1}\\\\W_{isoentropic}=8.125\frac{kJ}{mol}

(b) In this case, since n is given, we compute the final temperature as well:

T_2=T_1(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )^{1-1/n}=300K(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} )^{1-1/1.3}=510.38K

And the isentropic work:

W_{polytropic}=\frac{nR(T_2-T_1)}{n-1} =\frac{1.3*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}(510.38-300K)}{1.3-1}\\\\W_{polytropic}=7.579\frac{kJ}{mol}

(c) Finally, for isothermal, final temperature is not required as it could be computed as:

W_{isothermal}=RTln(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )=8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}*300K*ln(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} ) \\\\W_{isothermal}=5.743\frac{kJ}{mol}

Regards.
