The paper in the straw makes the soda fizz.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The reaction between alcohol and acidified potassium dichromate is a redox reaction. This reaction can be used to detect a drunken driver.
Alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids depending on the structure of the alcohol. Primary alcohols yield adehydes and carboxylic acids while secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones.
The colour of the acidified potassium dichromate turns from orange to green when exposed to alcohols from the breath of a drunken driver.
1 pound of coffee is said to yield 50 cups of coffee
So we need to find the pounds of coffee beans required to produce 250 cups
so if 50 cups need 1 pound of coffee beans
therefore 250 cups need - 1/50 x 250 = 5 pounds of coffee beans
since we have to find the amount of coffee beans needed in kg, we have to convert pounds to kg
1 pound = 0.45 kg
So if 1 pound is equivalent to 0.45 kg
then 5 pounds are equivalent to - 0.45 kg/pound x 5 pounds = 2.25 kg
therefore 2.25 kg of coffee beans are required
