Spoilage is basically a chemical reaction and chemical reactions take place more slowly if the environment is cooler. Moreover, the microbes are also not very active at lower temperatures and are unable to spoil the food.

Temperature control is the most efficient means of controlling microbial growth. At four degree Celsius, contaminating microbes growth will be hindered as they can not survive at this temperature.

Answer and Explanation:

An acid has a pH that is less than 7.  A base has a pH that is greater than 7.  Something that has a pH of 7 is neutral, but since it doesn't seem that the question is asking about neutral, you can ignore that for this problem.

Situation 1:   Base

Situation 2:  Acid

Situation 3:  Acid

Situation 4:  Base

Situation 5:  Acid

Situation 6:  Base

A.  Water directly out of the tap has a pH of 7.2.  When you add carbon dioxide (blow into the water), you get a pH of 5.1.  This means that the addition of carbon dioxide makes water more acidic.

B.  The most basic solution will have the highest pH.  This means that it will be water with bleach added to it.

C.  The most acidic solution will have the lowest pH.  This means that it will be water with instant coffee.

How do we know that this is a positive test for this organic substance​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

For example, addition of an orange chromic acid reagent to some compounds causes the chromium reagent to change to a blue-green color (Figure 6.37a). This is considered a "positive" test result, and in this case indicates the presence of a functional group that can be oxidized (alcohol or aldehyde).
