Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

A mountain climber at the peak of a mountain has potential energy.

The potential energy of a body is stored energy in a body. It is function of mass and position of the body.

Mathematically;

P.E = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

Choose the aqueous solution that has the highest boiling point. These are all solutions of nonvolatile solutes and you should as

UNO [17]

Answer: 0.100 m $K_2SO_4$

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point is given by:

$\Delta T_b=i\times K_b\times m$

$\Delta T_b=T_b-T_b^0$ = Elevation in boiling point

i= vant hoff factor

$K_b$ = boiling point constant

m= molality

1. For 0.100 m $K_2SO_{4}$

$K_2SO_4\rightarrow 2K^{+}+SO_4^{2-}$

, i= 3 as it is a electrolyte and dissociate to give 3 ions. and concentration of ions will be $3\times 0.100=0.300$

2. For 0.100 m $LiNO_3$

$LiNO_3\rightarrow Li^{+}+NO_3^{-}$

, i= 2 as it is a electrolyte and dissociate to give 2 ions, concentration of ions will be $2\times 0.100=0.200$

3. For 0.200 m $C_2H_8O_3$

, i= 1 as it is a non electrolyte and does not dissociate, concentration of ions will be $1\times 0.200=0.200$

4. For 0.060 m $Na_3PO_4$

$Na_3PO_4\rightarrow 3Na^{+}+PO_4^{3-}$

, i= 4 as it is a electrolyte and dissociate to give 4 ions. and concentration of ions will be $4\times 0.060=0.24m$

Thus as concentration of solute is highest for $K_2SO_4$ , the elevation in boiling point is highest and thus has the highest boiling point.

Biacetyl, the flavoring that makes margarine taste "just like butter," is extremely stable at room temperature, but at 200°C it

Sholpan [36]

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
