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

Which of the following happens when chlorine forms an ion?
Jlenok [28]

What  happens  when  chlorine  form  an ion  is that  it gains an electron and  has  an octet  in its  outer shell  ( answer  A)


<u><em> Explanation</em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>Chlorine is  is in atomic  number  17  in periodic table.

The electron configuration  of chlorine  is    1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P5   or[Ne]3S2 3p5  or  2.8.7.

chlorine therefore  has 7 valence electron therefore it  gain  1 electron  to form Cl- ( ion)

Cl- has  8  electron in its outer  shell (  it  obeys  octet  rule  of eight valence in outer shell.

Enter your answer in the provided box. From the data below, calculate the total heat (in J) needed to convert 0.304 mol of gaseo
diamong [38]

Answer:

-35,281.5 J

Explanation:

To convert the gaseous ethanol to liquid ethanol, three steps will occur. First, it will lose heat and the temperature will decrease until its boiling point, so from 300.0°C to 78.5°C. Thus, more heat will be lost, but now, with the temperature constant, so the gas will be converted to liquid. And then, the liquid will lose heat to decrease the temperature from 78.5°C to 25.0°C.

The total heat loss is the sum of the heats of each step. Because the heat is being removed from the system, it's negative. The first and last step occurs with a change in temperature, and so the heat is calculated by:

Q = m*c*ΔT

Where m is the mass, c is the specific heat of the gas (first step) or liquid (last step), and ΔT the temperature variation (final - initial). The mass of ethanol is the molar mass 46.07 g/mol multiplied by the number of moles, so:

m = 46.07 * 0.304 = 14.00 g

The second step occurs without a change in temperature, and the heat is then:

Q = -n*ΔH°vap

Where n is the number of moles, ΔH°vap is the heat of vaporization, and the minus signal indicates that the heat is being lost. Then, the heat of each step is:

Q1 = 14.00*1.43*(78.5 - 300,0) = -4434.43 J

Q2 = -0.304*40.5 = -12.312 kJ = -12312 J

Q3 = 14.00*2.45*(25.0 - 78.5) = -1835.05 J

Q = Q1 + Q2 + Q3

Q = -35,281.5 J
