6) A 0.20 ml CO2 bubble in a cake batter is at 27°C. In the oven it gets

Answer 1

Answer: The new volume of cake is 1.31 mL.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 0.20 mL,         $T_{1} = 27^{o}C$

$V_{2}$ = ?,                    $T_{2} = 177^{o}C$

Formula used to calculate new volume is as follows.

$\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{0.20 mL}{27^{o}C} = \frac{V_{2}}{177^{o}C}\\V_{2} = 1.31 mL$

Thus, we can conclude that the new volume of cake is 1.31 mL.
