Answer:

The change in color.

Explanation:

The apple turn brown in color because of the oxidation process. When the oxygen and water molecules in air react with it, oxidation take place. The oxidation process is very efficient in ambient temperature.

For example, if the peal off apple is placed into the refrigerator it take a time to got oxidize and turn brown, but if it is placed in room temperature it quickly turn brown.

when oxygen is react with peel off apple , it trigger the polyphenol oxidase enzyme to oxidize the phenolic compound and quinones are formed which then react with amino acids and produced brown color.

The pOH of a solution is 6.0. Which statement is correct? Use p O H equals negative logarithm StartBracket upper O upper H super
Katen [24]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 8.

Explanation:

To which options are correct, let us determine the concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] and the pH of the solution. This is illustrated below:

1. The concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] can be obtained as follow:

pOH = –Log [OH-]

pOH = 6

6 = –Log [OH-]

–6 = Log [OH-]

[OH-] = Antilog (–6)

[OH-] = 1x10^–6 mol/L

2. The pH of the solution can be obtained as follow:

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 6

pH + 6 = 14

pH = 14 – 6

pH = 8.

From the calculations made above,

[OH-] = 1x10^–6 mol/L

pH = 8.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

The pH of the solution is 8

Temperatures in Earth's interior increase with increasing depth. Seismic waves help to provide information on temperatures in Ea
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Temperature affects Seismic Wave speed.

Explanation:

Both temperature and pressure affect the speed of Seismic waves. The Speed of Seismic waves increases uniformly as pressure increases, meaning that as depth increases, pressure also increases which causes Seismic Wave speeds to increase as well. This can be calculated and the data can be gathered. Temperature on the other hand decreases the speed of Seismic Waves, therefore we can calculate the difference of speed between what the Seismic Wave should be at a certain pressure with the actual speed gathered. This difference in speed will allow us to determine the actual temperature at that level.

At 4.00 L, an expandable vessel contains 0.864 mol of oxygen gas. How many liters of oxygen gas must be added at constant temper
fgiga [73]

Answer:

We have to add 2.30 L of oxygen gas

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial volume = 4.00 L

Number of moles oxygen gas= 0.864 moles

Temperature = constant

Number of moles of oxygen gas increased to 1.36 moles

Step 2: Calculate new volume

V1/n1 = V2/n2

⇒V1 = the initial volume of the vessel = 4.00 L

⇒n1 = the initial number of moles oxygen gas = 0.864 moles

⇒V2 = the nex volume of the vessel

⇒n2 = the increased number of moles oxygen gas = 1.36 moles

4.00L / 0.864 moles = V2 / 1.36 moles

V2 = 6.30 L

The new volume is 6.30 L

Step 3: Calculate the amount of oxygen gas we have to add

6.30 - 4.00 = 2.30 L

We have to add 2.30 L of oxygen gas

Repulsion of electrons within two interacting molecules produces changes in electron distribution. This change in electron distr
ycow [4]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

This explains how two noble gases molecules can have an attractive force between them.

This force is called as van dar Waals forces.

It plays a fundamental role in fields in as diverse as supramolecular chemistry structural biology .

If no other forces are present, the point at which the force becomes repulsive rather than attractive as two atoms near one another is called the van der Waals contact distance. This results from the electron clouds of two atoms unfavorably coming into contact.[1] It can be shown that van der Waals forces are of the same origin as the Casimir effect, arising from quantum interactions with the zero-point field.[2] The resulting van der Waals forces can be attractive or repulsive.[3] It is also sometimes used loosely as a synonym for the totality of intermolecular forces.[4] The term includes the force between permanent dipoles (Keesom force), the force between a permanent dipole and a corresponding induced dipole (Debye force), and the force between instantaneously induced dipoles
