The most common reaction that causes spoilage isn't a reaction at all. Molds and Bacteria are attracted to the easily found presence of water in the fruit. They find a natural place to reproduce and what they do causes spoilage.
Very few sources talk about the chemical changes that take place. If you put fruit in a refrigerator it slows the spoiling process down. That means that the chemical reaction has to be endothermic (it requires heat to occur)
The process of spoilage is speeded up by bananas for example, giving up Ethylene gas. You do not want to put a banana with tomatoes, because tomatoes are very sensitive to Ethylene. (It's OK to eat them together. They make a terrific salad. Yum).
I cannot find a definitive source that connects all this together, but the conduct of the fruit in refrigerators confirms what I am saying.
Spoilage is a very complex reaction and interaction with the environment. I have given you a hint of what happens but you should search it out to convince yourself of the outcome.
Answer:
4.03dm³
Explanation:
The reaction expression is given as:
3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃
Volume of hydrogen = 12dm³
AT rtp:
1 mole of gas occupies volume of 22.4dm³
x mole of hydrogen will occupy a volume of 12dm³
Number of moles of hydrogen = 
= 0.54mole
From the balanced reaction equation:
3 mole of hydrogen gas combines with 1 mole of Nitrogen gas
0.54 mole of hydrogen as will therefore combine with 
= 0.18moles of nitrogen gas
Since ;
1 mole of gas occupies a volume of 22.4dm³
0.18moles of Nitrogen gas will occupy 0.18 x 22.4 = 4.03dm³
Answer:
No.
Explanation:
No. There is 1 atom of Ca on the left and 2 Ca's on the right and 2 OH's on the left and 4 on the right.
The balanced equation is:
4OH- + 2Ca2+ ----> 2Ca(OH)2.
Answer:
Part 1. When the balloon is filled half of the way, and placed into the freezer, it will shrink. This happens because kinetic molecular theory tells us that a decrease in temperature decreases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules in the balloon. Viscous gases like hydrogen are less likely to shrink.
Part 2. When the balloon is placed out in the hot sun, most likely the balloon will swell and grow. This happens because the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases due to solar radiation transforming into heat energy and then transforming into kinetic energy. Sticky gases like neon are more likely to grow.
