The pH of milk lowers as it turns into curd due to the formation of lactic acid.
Fresh milk is considered to be slightly acidic, having a pH lower than 7. Milk is converted into curd, the thickened or solid part of milk after the milk sours, through the process of fermentation. The lactic acid bacteria, such as Lactobacillus, converts lactose or the sugar present in milk into lactic acid, causing the milk to taste sour. The increase in the concentration of lactic acid results in the increase of hydronium ions which lowers the pH of the milk.

K will give up an electron more easily than Br.
E- is a negative electron
The answer is C : 15.7 m/s
Use the idea of : momentum before collision = momentum after collision
Before collision;
For car:mass=1.1×10^3, velocity=22
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=0
After collision;
For car:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=-11
For truck:mass=2.3×10^3, velocity=V
(1.1×10^3 × 22) + (2.3×10^3 × 0) = (1.1×10^3 × -11) + (2.3×10^3 × V)
24200 = -12100 + 2.3×10^3V
2.3×10^3V = 36300
V = 15.7 m/s
Answer:
Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
Explanation:
Step 1
This equation is a nuclear reaction. So it can be an alpha decay or a beta decay
An α-particle is a helium nucleus. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons, for a mass number of 4.
During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. It transforms (or decays) into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less.
Thus, radium-226 decays through α-particle emission to form radon-222 according to the equation that is showed.
A Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other.
Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
