How does lemon juice stop an apple from turning brown?

Chemistry

Lemon juice prevents browning because it is full of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and it has a low pH level. The oxygen will react with the ascorbic acid before it reacts with polyphenol oxidase (the enzyme in the fruit).

aalyn [17]

Answer:

(molecular) 3 CaCl₂(aq) + 2 (NH₄)₃PO₄(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) +  6 NH₄Cl(aq)

(ionic) 3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq)

(net ionic) 3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s)

Explanation:

The molecular equation includes al the species in the molecular form.

3 CaCl₂(aq) + 2 (NH₄)₃PO₄(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) +  6 NH₄Cl(aq)

The ionic equation includes all the ions (species that dissociate in water) and the species that do not dissociate in water.

3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq)

The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and the species that do not dissociate in water. In does not include <em>spectator ions</em>.

3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s)

How much heat is needed to change the temperature of 5g of water from 20 oC to 37 oC?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Q = 355.64 J

Explanation:

Data

Heat = Q = ?

Temperature 1 = T1 = 20°C

Temperature 2 = T2 = 37°C

mass = m = 5 g

Specific heat = Cp = 4.184 J/g°C

Formula

Q = mCp(T2 - T1)

-Substitution

Q = (5)(4.184)(37 - 20)

-Simplification

Q = (5)(4.184)(17)

-Result

Q = 355.64 J
