Which of the following is not a function of sugar in baked goods

(a) What is the basis of the approximation that avoids using the quadratic formula to find an equilibrium concentration?

rusak2 [61]

The approximation is valid because is very small.

Calculation of concentration:

Since

0.85 M 0 0

(0.85-x)M x x

Now the value of x should be

x = 0.0000229

So based on this, the above concentration should be determined.

Now you will solve using the quadratic formula instead of iterations, to show that the same value of x is obtained either way. using the quadratic equation to calculate [h3o+] in 0.00250 m hno2, what are the values of a, b, c and x , where a, b, and c are the coefficients in the quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0, and x is [h3o+]? recall that ka=4.5×10−4 .

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

[H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M

As HNO₂ is a weak acid, its equilibrium in water is:

HNO₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)

Equilibrium constant, ka, is defined as:

ka = 4.5x10⁻⁴ = [H₃O⁺] [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂] (1)

Equilibrium concentration of each specie are:

[HNO₂] = 0.00250M - x

[H₃O⁺] = x

[NO₂⁻] = x

Replacing in (1):

4.5x10⁻⁴ = x × x / 0.00250M - x

1.125x10⁻⁶ - 4.5x10⁻⁴x = x²

0 = x² + 4.5x10⁻⁴x - 1.125x10⁻⁶

As the quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0

Coefficients are:

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

Now, solving quadratic equation:

x = -0.0013 → False answer, there is no negative concentrations.

x = 0.000859

As [H₃O⁺] = x; [H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M

To sum up the question: why are some parts of the body more sensitive than others?

natulia [17]

Answer:

Some areas of the body are more sensitive than others because they have more nerve endings. It hurts when you bite your tongue because the sides of your tongue have a lot of nerve endings that are very sensitive to pain! The tongue, lips, and fingertips are the most touch-sensitive parts of the body. The parts of your skin that need to be most sensitive like your fingertips and your lips have more receptor cells in them than others less sensitive areas. The least sensitive skin on the human body is found in the heel area. This is because there are very few nerves in the heel to feel things. If there were too many nerves in our heels then walking would be far too painful.

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO (g) is Keq = 4.20 ⋅ 10-31 at 30 °C. At equilibrium, __

pychu [463]

Answer:

At equilibrium, reactants predominate.

Explanation:

For every reaction, the equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants. Thus, for the reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO the expression of its equilibrium constant is:

$Keq = \frac{[NO]^{2}}{[O_{2} ][N_{2}]}$

Since the equilibrium constant is Keq = 4.20x10-31 the concentration of reactants O2 and N2 must be much higher than products to obtain such a small number as 4.20x10-31 at the equilibrium. Hence, at equilibrium reactants predominate.
