Biacetyl, the flavoring that makes margarine taste "just like butter," is extremely stable at room temperature, but at 200°C it

undergoes a first-order breakdown with a half-life of 9.0 min. An industrial flavor-enhancing process requires that a butter-flavored food be heated briefly at 200°C. How long can the food be heated at this temperature and retain 74% of its buttery flavor?

Answer:

3.91 minutes

Explanation:

Given that:

Biacetyl breakdown with a half life of 9.0 min after undergoing first-order reaction;

As we known that the half-life for first order is:

t__{1/2}}= \frac{0.693}{k}

where;

k = constant

The formula can be re-written as:

k = \frac{0.693}{t__{1/2}}

k = \frac{0.693}{9.0 min}

k = 0.077 min^{-1}

Let the initial amount of butter flavor in the food be (N_0) = 100%

Also, the amount of butter flavor retained at 200°C (N_t)= 74%

The rate constant k = 0.077 min^{-1}

To determine how long can the food be heated at this temperature and retain 74% of its buttery flavor; we use the formula:

\frac{N_t}{N_0}= -kt

t = - (\frac{1}{k}*In\frac{N_t}{N_0}  )

Substituting our values; we have:

t = - (\frac{1}{0.077}*In\frac{74}{100}  )

t = 3.91 minutes

∵ The time needed for the food to be heated at this temperature and retain 74% of its buttery flavor is 3.91 minutes

Hello, a little help please guys:( Explain how the series of experiments performed by Crookes, Thomson, Rutherford, and Chadwick
White raven [17]
<span>I did some investigation and summarized the process and made a clearer explanation so those who are confused can imagine the process better :) A scientific theory attempts to explain and describe why things happen. Hypotheses are formed and experiments are done to validate or toss the hypothesis based on the data collected. The Atomic Theory has gone through lots of refining as a scientific theory. For instance, William Crookes conduced an experiment with cathode ray tubes powered by electricity that glowed when powered. Crookes placed an object in between the positive and negative electrode and concluded that the shadow made on the positive side was small particles of matter traveling from the negative side. But more evidence was needed so, later on, J.J. Thomson continued Crookes experiment. He tested what would happen if a negative or positive charged rod was placed along the ray tubes and if it would differ if a different element was used as the negative electrode. Thomson found out that the beam had negatively charged particles and that even if the negative electrode is substituted, the glow is still present, meaning that all elements also had the small negative particles. These particles(now known as electrons) were smaller than the atom and were added to the model of the atom dispersed throughout the neutrally charged atom inside its positive sphere. Now came along Rutherford hoping to support Thomsons model by firing positively charged particles at a thin gold foil thinking it would go straight through the foil, but instead it evenly distributed as they went through the foil, concluding that atoms have a small, dense nucleus(containing positive protons and most of the mass of the atom) that deflected the particles passing through. This was a drastic change in the model now knowing that 1 proton has 2000 times the mass of an electron, but its positive charge cancels the negative electron. After WW1, Chadwick and others were seeing that sometimes the mass of the atom was greater than the mass of the protons and the number of protons was less than the mass of the atom. So it was thought that there were extra electrons and protons adding mass in the nucleus but cancelling their charges, but Rutherford proposed a particle with mass but no charge and called it a neutron; made of paired protons and electrons. But scientists kept studying atoms since there was no evidence of the neutron. Chadwick repeated these experiments though, in hopes to find the neutron and succeeded in 1932, finding it in the nucleus with a close mass to the proton. Thanks to these experiments for refining a scientific theory, we now have a clearer model of the atom.</span>

Which answer accurately describes the difference between speed and velocity? Read each answer choice carefully.
iragen [17]

Answer:

C. Speed is the distance per unit of time. Velocity is the displacement per unit of time.

This answer accurately describes the difference between speed and velocity.

Explanation:

A. If speed is constant, then velocity is also constant.

The above statement is not correct, the correct statement is if speed is constant its velocity is not necessarily constant.

Example: An object in uniform circular motion has constant speed but its velocity changes at every instant due to change in direction.

B. <u>Speed requires direction. The direction doesn't matter when calculating velocity.</u>

The above statement is not correct, the correct statement is

Speed does not require direction. The direction is necessary for calculating velocity.

Speed, a scalar quantity, requires magnitude only not the direction.

Velocity is vector quantity, requires magnitude as well as direction.

C. Speed is the distance per unit of time. Velocity is the displacement per unit of time.

The above statement is correct i.e.

Speed is the distance per unit of time. Velocity is the displacement per unit of time.
