<span>I think the correct answer is A. A buffer is a substance that resists small change in the acidity of a solution when an acid or base is added to the solution. Usually, a buffer involves a weak acid or a weak alkali and one of its salt.</span>

A mixture of 454 kg of applesauce at 10 degrees Celsius is heated in a heat exchanger by adding 121300 kJ. Calculate the outlet
stira [4]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

           Mass of apple sauce mixture = 454 kg

           Heat added (Q) = 121300 kJ

 Heat capacity (C_{p}) of apple sauce at 32.8^{o}C = 4.0177 kJ/kg^{o}C

So, Heat given by heat exchanger = heat taken by apple sauce

                            Q = mC_{p} \Delta T

or,                    Q = mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})  

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                     Q = mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})  

              121300 kJ = 454 kg \times 4.0177 kJ/kg^{o}C \times (T_{f} - 10)

                      T_{f} = 76.5^{o}C

Thus, we can conclude that outlet temperature of the apple sauce is 76.5^{o}C.

Among the alkali earth metals, the tendency to react with other substances
tatyana61 [14]
Answer: option <span>A) increases from bottom to top within the group.

Explanation:

</span>It is a known trend that the metallic character of the elements increase from let to right and from top to bottom.

The greater the metallic character the greater the reactivity of the metal.

So, the elements of the columns 1 and 2 are the most reactive metals and among them the elements at the bottom are yet more reactive.

<span>The higher reactivity of the metals that are lower in the periodic table is attributed to the greater total number of electrons.

The greater the total number of electrons the more reactive the metals as their outermost electrons (the valence electrons which are those that react) are located further from the nucleus and therefore they are held less strongly, which makes them react more easily.</span>

You put two open cans of soda on the table. You took one can from the refrigerator and the other from your car. When you open th
jarptica [38.1K]
The soda can from the car will lose CO2 more quickly. This is because of the kinetic energy and behavior of gas molecules under different temperatures. CO2 is more soluble in cold temperatures than hot. Cold temperatures minimize the kinetic energy of gas molecules; thus, preventing the gas from escaping the soda. This is why soda that comes from the refrigerator has more fizz or spirit than soda at room temperature.
