You start with 100 kg raw potatoes.

8% of mass is lost by peeling:

100 - ( 8 / 100) × 100 = 92 kg of peeled raw potatoes

By drying the water contents is reduces from 75% to 7%, that means a 68% loss by weight:

92 - ( 68 / 100) × 92 = 92 - 62.56 = 29.44 kg of dried potatoes

A client is undergoing therapy in a whirlpool unit that has been plugged into an extension cord. What is this an example of?
frez [133]

Using extension or flexible cords improperly

Explanation:

A client undergoing therapy in a whirlpool unit plugged into an extension cord demonstrates a wrong and improper use of extensions and flexible cords. This is not a safe way to connect an electrical circuit.

  • Unless a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter is used, the client is at a risk of suffering from electrocution.
  • The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter is able to detect leakages in the circuit and breaks it off.

What is the charge on an atom after it loses an electron during the formation of a bond?
Sphinxa [80]

I believe the charge is positive as losing an electron suggests that the atom lost a negative charge, leaving it with more positive than negative.

I haven't taken this in a few years very sorry if i'm wrong tho.

Determine whether or not each mixture is a buffer. check all that apply. check all that apply. koh and nh3 hbr and nacl hcl and
erastova [34]
A buffer is usually composed of either:
- a weak base combined with its conjugate acid, or
- a weak acid combined with its conjugate base

Now, examining each of the choices:
1- KOH and NH3: since they are both bases, thus this mixture is not a buffer
2- HBr and NaCl: since HBr is a strong acid while NaCl is the salt of another different acid, thus this mixture is not a buffer
3- HCl and HBr: these are both considered to be strong acid, thus this mixture is not a buffer
4- HCHO2 and NaCHO2: as for HCH02, it is considered a weak base while NaCHO2 is considered its conjugate base, thus this mixture is a buffer
