Answer:

Explanation:

This is the Difference Between a Hypothesis and a Theory. In scientific reasoning, a hypothesis is an assumption made before any research has been completed for the sake of testing. A theory on the other hand is a principle set to explain phenomena already supported by data.

Calculate the % composition of the unknown liquid using your most precise result. It is a mixture of ethanol (D[ETOH] = 0.7890 g

Rufina [12.5K]

% composition of ethanol = 34.51%

% composition of water = 65.49%

<h3>What is density?</h3>

A material's density is defined as its mass per unit volume.

Given data:

The density of ethanol = 0.7890 g/mL

The density of water = 0.9982 g/mL

The density of mixture = 0.926 g/mL

Let the % composition of ethanol = x

Let the % composition of water = 100-x

Now density of the mixture

$\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

$Mass = \frac{percent \;of \;ethanol \;X \;density \;of \;ethanol \;+ \\ \;percent \;of \;water X \;density \;of \;water}{100}$

$0.926 = \frac{x X 0.7890 g/mL \;+ (100-x) X 0.9982 g/mL}{100}$

$x= 34.51$ %

Hence,

% composition of ethanol = 34.51%

% composition of water = 65.49%

What Happens During Fermentation?

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Fermentation is a metabolic process in which an organism converts a carbohydrate, such as starch or a sugar, into an alcohol or an acid. For example, yeast performs fermentation to obtain energy by converting sugar into alcohol.

Sometimes bacteria perform fermentation, converting carbohydrates into lactic acid...

You can look up videos of yeast fermentation in apple juice.

a researcher obtains a sample of 0.070 M nitrate solition. A 20.0 mL aliquote of the nitrate solution is added to 10.0 mL of amm

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution = 0.007 M

Explanation:

Given:

Concentration nitrate solution = 0.070 m

Volume of aliquote of the nitrate solution is add = 10.0 ml

Total volume = 100 ml

Find:

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution

Computation:

Number of M. mole = 0.070 m x 10.0 ml

Number of M. mole = 0.7 m-moles

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution = 0.7 m-moles / 100 ml

Concentration of nitrate in the new solution = 0.007 M

Identify each of these substances as acidic, basic, or neutral. pure water, pH = 7.0 lake water, pH = 6.5 baking soda solution,

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

pure water, pH = 7.0 (Neutral)

lake water, pH = 6.5 (Acidic)

baking soda solution, pH = 9 (Alkaline)

soapy water, pH = 12 (Alkaline)

Explanation:

The degree of acidicity or alkalinity of a solution can be determined on a pH meter. A pH below 7 is acidic; a pH of 7 is neutral; a pH value of above 7 is alkaline.
