The water in a pressure cooker boils at a temperature greater than 100°C because it is under pressure. At this higher temperatur
vazorg [7]

Answer:

the activation energy Ea = 179.176 kJ/mol

it will take  7.0245 mins for the same food to cook in an open pot of boiling water at an altitude of 10000 feet.

Explanation:

From the given information

T_1 = 100^0 C = 100+273 = 373 \ K \\ \\  T_2 = 113^0 C = 113 + 273 = 386 \ K

R_1 = \dfrac{1}{7}

R_2 = \dfrac{1}{49}

Thus; \dfrac{R_2}{R_1} = 7

Because at 113.0°C; the rate is 7 time higher than at 100°C

Hence:

In (7) = \dfrac{Ea}{8.314}( \dfrac{1}{373}- \dfrac{1}{386})

1.9459 = \dfrac{Ea}{8.314}* 9.0292  *10^{-5}

1.9459*8.314 = Ea * 9.0292*10^{-5}

16.1782126= Ea * 9.0292*10^{-5}

Ea = \dfrac{16.1782126}{ 9.0292*10^{-5}}

Ea = 179.176 kJ/mol

Thus; the activation energy Ea = 179.176 kJ/mol

b)

here;

T_2 = 386 \  K  \\ \\T_1 = (89.8 + 273)K = 362.8 \ K

In(\dfrac{R_2}{R_1})= \dfrac{Ea}{R}(\dfrac{1}{T_1}- \dfrac{1}{T_2})

In(\dfrac{R_2}{R_1})= \dfrac{179.176}{8.314}(\dfrac{1}{362.8}- \dfrac{1}{386})

In (\dfrac{R_2}{R_1}) = 0.00357

\dfrac{R_2}{R_1}= e^{0.00357}

\dfrac{R_2}{R_1}= 1.0035

where ;

R_2 = \dfrac{1}7{}

R_1 = \dfrac{1}{t}

Now;

\dfrac{t}{7}= 1.0035

t = 7.0245 mins

Therefore; it will take  7.0245 mins for the same food to cook in an open pot of boiling water at an altitude of 10000 feet.

13. How many moles of sodium hydroxide are needed to neutralize 50grams of sulfuric acid?
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

1.02mole

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

     2NaOH  +  H₂SO₄ →  Na₂SO₄  + 2H₂O

Given:

Mass of H₂SO₄  = 50g

Unknown:

Number of moles of NaOH = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we first find the number of moles of the acid given;

  Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of H₂SO₄ = 2(1) + 32 + 4(16)  = 98g/mol

Now;

   Number of moles = \frac{50}{98}   = 0.51mole

From the balanced reaction equation:

       1 mole of H₂SO₄ will be neutralized by 2 mole of NaOH

     0.51 mole of H₂SO₄ will be neutralized by 2 x 0.51  = 1.02mole of NaOH

If a red blood cell is placed in a 0.5 salt solution what will occur
photoshop1234 [79]
The red blood cell will shrink.
In salt solution, the water potential is a lot lower than the cell cytoplasm. In that way, water molecules will flow from the inside of the cell to the salt solution by osmosis. The red blood cell will loose so much water that it shrinks.
But we don't have to worry about that because this won't occur inside our body, since there is mechanism in our body that regulates the concentration of blood.
