Answer:

Production of Citric Acid

It is an organic carboxylic acid and can be extracted from the juice of citrus fruits by adding calcium oxide to form calcium citrate, which is an insoluble precipitate that can be collected by filtration; the citric acid can be recovered from its calcium salt by adding sulfuric acid.

Citric acid is the most important organic acid produced in tonnage and is extensively used in food and pharmaceutical industries. It is produced mainly by submerged fermentation using Aspergillus niger from different sources of carbohydrates, such as molasses and starch based media.

Citric acid is most prevalent in citrus fruits and juices. Of these fruits, lemons and limes have the most citric acid. While oranges, grapefruits, and berries also contain appreciable amounts, lemons and limes will most significantly contribute to the citric acid content of your urine.

How many atoms are present in 0.529 moles of Li?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

<h2>3.18 × 10²³ atoms</h2>

Explanation:

The number of atoms can be found by using the formula

N = n × L

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 0.529 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.18 × 10²³ atoms</h3>

Hope this helps you

What volume of 0.4567 m h2so4 is required to neutralize 30.00 ml of 0.3210 m naoh?
sertanlavr [38]
Answer is: volume of H₂SO₄ is 42.1 mL.<span>
Chemical reaction: H</span>₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.<span>
c(H</span>₂SO₄) = 0,4567 M = 0,4567 mol/L.<span>
V(NaOH) = 30 mL </span>÷ 1000 mL/L <span>= 0,03 L.
c(NaOH) = 0,321 M = 0,321 mol/L.
n(NaOH) = c(NaOH) · V(NaOH).
n(NaOH) = 0,321 mol/L · 0,030 L.
n(NaOH) = 0,00963 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(H</span>₂SO₄) : n(NaOH) = 1 : 2.<span>
n(H</span>₂SO₄) = 0,01926 mol.<span>
V(H</span>₂SO₄) = n(H₂SO₄) ÷ c(H₂SO₄).<span>
V(H</span>₂SO₄) = 0,01926 mol ÷ 0,4567 mol/L.<span>
V(H</span>₂SO₄<span>) = 0,0421 L = 42,1 mL.</span>
