Chemistry
1 answer:

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

What are the laws and calculations governing gas behavior?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Laws governing gas behavior.

Explanation:

Boyle's law:

It relates the pressure and volume of an ideal gas at a constant temperature.

According to this law:

"The volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to its pressure".

P  \alpha   V.

Charle's law:

It relates the volume and absolute temperature of an ideal gas at a constant pressure.

According to this law:

"The volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to its absolute temperature".

V   \alpha   T.

Avogadro's law:

According to this law:

equal volumes of all gases under the same conditions of temperature and pressure contain, an equal number of moles.

V   \alpha    n.

Ideal gas equation:

By combining all the above-stated gas laws, this equation is formed as shown below:

V  \alpha   \frac{nT}{P} \\=> V= R. nT/ P\\=>PV=nRT

R is called universal gas constant.

It has a value of 0.0821L.atm.mol-1.K-1.

Aly's science class was looking at bacteria through a microscope. Aly's teacher said some bacteria can be as small as 0.00365 cm
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

0.00365\ cm=3.65\times 10^{-3}\ cm

Explanation:

Aly's teacher said some bacteria can be as small as 0.00365 cm long.

In this problem, we need to write the length of the bacteria written in scientific notation. Any number can be written in the form of scientific notation as follows :

N=a\times 10^b

a is a real no and b is an integer

In the given number, there are two zeroes before 3. We need to shift the decimal after 3. It can be done as follows :

0.00365\ cm=3.65\times 10^{-3}\ cm

Hence, this is the required solution.
