Answer & explanation:
Canned fruits and vegetables generally have a high acidity and salinity content, in order to prevent the product from spoiling, in addition to enhancing its flavor.
The cream-based sauce started to curdle due to the acidity present in the canned tomatoes.
By lowering the pH of dairy products, a protein in them called casein begins to clot. It is this clotting of the casein that causes the cream-based sauce to curdle.
Answer:
The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity
Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago
Explanation:
All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.
Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)
For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1
Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.
Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.
For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.
<span>To solve this exercise you need to know that to create CO₂ with C₂H₂ is necessary to have oxygen. So, the following balanced equation represents the reaction:
2C₂H₂(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)
Notice that 2 moles of C₂H₂ form 4 moles of </span><span>CO₂, so if </span>3.3 moles of C₂H₂ react, how many moles of CO2 would be produced?
2 moles <span>of C₂H₂ -------</span>4 moles of <span>CO₂
3.3 </span><span>moles <span>of C₂H₂--------x moles of CO₂
x=6.6 </span></span><span>moles of CO₂ produced.</span>
