Answer:

First Method: Vacuum Distillation and Chromatographic separation of the remains that were precipitated out from the peel.

Second Method: Extraction of components from orange peels by help of precipitation procedures that are mostly done <em>In Situ. </em>Those components can be recovered using the saponification process. Then these are examined under UV light spectroscopy. Now, the existence and extent of carotenoids can be determined by checking the levels of anti-oxidants.

Which property is true for metals
san4es73 [151]

most metals conduct electricity and are very dull to the look. most metals are toxic if eaten and are hard.

aluminum is a type of metal they is softer than the opther and conducts eletricty like a boss.

nickel on the opther hand is also a metal but does not conduct a lot of electricy.

metals can be bent and others can break,

The molar heat of fusion of gold is 12.550 kJ mol–1. At its melting point, how much mass of melted gold must solidify to release
KATRIN_1 [288]

The mass of melted gold to release the energy would be  3, 688. 8 Kg

<h3>How to determine the mass</h3>

The formula for quantity of energy is given thus;

Q = n × HF

Where n represents number of moles

HF  represents  heat of fusion

To find the number of moles, we have

235.0 = n × 12.550

number of moles = \frac{235}{12. 550} = 18. 725 moles

Note that molar mass of Gold is 197g/ mol

Let's note that;

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 18. 725 × 197

Mass = 3, 688. 8 Kg

Thus, the mass of melted gold to release the energy would be  3, 688. 8 Kg

What is the ability to transfer thermal energy to something else
Fofino [41]

Answer:

.Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. The transfer or flow due to the difference in temperature between the two objects is called heat.

Explanation:

The transfer of thermal energy is called heat. In this process, thermal energy moves through a substance.  For example, an ice cube has heat energy and so does a glass of lemonade.

Steam at 200 °C is cooled to 105°c. What happens to the volume? Mass? Average kinetic energyy of the molecules and the particle
taurus [48]
The mass stays the same because if you have the same amount of steam then it can't change. The volume will get slightly smaller because the average kinetic energy of the molecules is less, so they move around less, so they take up less space. The particles are moving less fast.
