Akosua has observed that anytime she drinks sobolo, her stool appears dark green. On one occasion

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anna007 [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

i. Sobolo is a Ghanian drink that is produced from red hibiscus flower that has an average pH of 6.7

It contains cyanidin and anthocyanins, which is a red pigment that is red in an acidic medium and changes green when introduced in a basic medium that has a high pH

The pH at the rectum of the digestive system = 5 to 8 (Slightly basic)

Therefore, what made the stool of Akosua green is that the sobolo drink changes to green in basic solution

ii. The stool which appeared green because she took sobolo turn into bright red upon mixing with the acidic WC water because of the presence of anthocyanins in sobolo, it turns red in an acidic medium

iii. Sobolo which turns green, or blue in a basic medium and red in an acidic medium can be used as a litmus solution to test the pH of a given substance

Explanation:

Sobolo or soobolo in Ghana is a name for the Hibiscus tea or tisane, which is made from calyces of the hibiscus plant, and has a sour (tangy) taste and appears bright red in color

Paul went to his friend's 2 km from his house, he used his bike and took him 9 minutes.
damaskus [11]

The average speed : 3.07 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

d1 = 2 km

t1 = 9 min

d2 = 1.5 km

t2 = 10 min

Required

The average speed

Solution

Average speed = total distance : total time

total distance :

= d1+d2

= 2+1.5

=3.5 km

total time :

= t1+t2

= 9 min + 10 min

= 19 min

Average speed :

= 3.5 km : 19 min

= 0.184 km/min

= 3.07 m/s

How many moles of lithium chloride will be formed by the reaction of chloride with 4.28 mol of lithium bromide in the following
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The answer is 4.28 moles

Explanation:

This is super easy okay, you won't forget this!

Basically mole ratios, we're just looking at the coefficients in front of the compounds, multiplying them, and dividing them as we see fit.

In this example, you can see how you need 2 moles of lithium bromide (LiBr) for the reaction, and 2 moles of lithium chloride (LiCl) will be produced.

Basically, the <u>molar ratio</u> is when you divide numbers and see how much of this do I have for that (if that makes sense).

So if you were to divide the 2 moles of LiBr / 2 moles of LiCl = 1. So we know that the mole ratio for LiBr to LiCl is 1:1 or 2:2, either or, it's the same thing.

SO THE BIG IDEA, if we have 4.28 moles of lithium bromide reacting, we should also have 4.28 moles of lithium chloride produced, BECAUSE the <u>mole ratio</u> is 1:1.

I hope this makes sense please tell me if it doesn't, I will try my best to explain a little more.
