Explanation:
Pineapple juice often shows an unstable cloud and produces a solid precipitate that is not very attractive for consumers. Cloud stabilization by pectin addition is permitted by EU and Codex standards to counteract this effect. This additive must be labeled and its content should not exceed fixed maximum standards (Website of AIJN Code of Practice). Determination of water-soluble pectins by IFU method 26 (Website of International Fruit and Vegetable Juice Association) can be used for control of this parameter. Pectin addition to pineapple juice or juice concentrate, etc. may also be detected after its isolation by 13C isotopic analysis (Hammond, 2006) as explained later.
The decomposition time : 7.69 min ≈ 7.7 min

Given
rate constant : 0.029/min
a concentration of 0.050 mol L to a concentration of 0.040 mol L
Required
the decomposition time
Solution
The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time
For first-order reaction :
[A]=[Ao]e^(-kt)
or
ln[A]=-kt+ln(A0)
Input the value :
ln(0.040)=-(0.029)t+ln(0.050)
-3.219 = -0.029t -2.996
-0.223 =-0.029t
t=7.69 minutes
P x V = n x R x T
P x 73 = 2.97 x 0.082 x 298
P x 73 = 72.57492
P = 72.57492 / 73
P = 1.0 atm
hope this helps!
Answer:
pH = 5.54
Explanation:
The pH of a buffer solution is given by the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach (H-H) equation</em>:
- pH = pKa + log
![\frac{[CH_3COO^-]}{[CH_3COOH]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%5BCH_3COO%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BCH_3COOH%5D%7D)
For acetic acid, pKa = 4.75.
We <u>calculate the original number of moles for acetic acid and acetate</u>, using the <em>given concentrations and volume</em>:
- CH₃COO⁻ ⇒ 0.377 M * 0.250 L = 0.0942 mol CH₃COO⁻
- CH₃COOH ⇒ 0.345 M * 0.250 L = 0.0862 mol CH₃COOH
The number of CH₃COO⁻ moles will increase with the added moles of KOH while the number of CH₃COOH moles will decrease by the same amount.
Now we use the H-H equation to <u>calculate the new pH</u>, by using the <em>new concentrations</em>:
- pH = 4.75 + log
= 5.54
