Why do we store tomatoes but not potatoes in refrigerator ? |
|
Answer» o is technically a FRUIT, but taste-wise, it’s closer to a vegetable. If you’ve ever grown tomatoes, then you know that they love the heat and hate the cold. Turns out even after they’re plucked from the vine, they still hold their aversion to cold. The fridge is not the ideal PLACE to store tomatoes. Store them there and your perfect tomatoes turn into a mealy disappointment. They’ll still be good for cooking, but not the best for eating fresh. Instead store them on your COUNTER (not in direct sunlight) and enjoy them when they’re ripe.but if we want to cook the tomatoes by fresh we should keep it in fridge.Potatoes like cool, not cold temperatures. They do best at around 45 degrees F, which is about 10 degrees warmer than the AVERAGE refrigerator. Most of us don’t have a root cellar (a cool, dark place to store root vegetables like potatoes), so keeping them in a paper bag in a coolish spot (like a pantry) is best. Why paper? It’s more breathable then plastic so potatoes won’t succumb to ROT as easily. And why not the fridge? Storing potatoes at cold temperatures converts their starch to sugar more quickly, which can affect the flavor, texture and the way they cook.NOTE:NOT COPIED FROM ANY SITEIF IT HELPS U PLZZZZ MARK IT BST |

|
Answer» NTP are same : standard temperature and pressure and normal temperature and pressure: The temperature is 0 deg C and 1 atmospheric pressure. This is a standard. A gas occupies 22.4 liters at STP. RTP is room temperature and pressure: This is at room temperature 25 deg C. The gas occupies around 24.1 litres at RTP.1 mole of any gas contains 6.023 * 10^23 MOLECULES at any temperature and pressure. There is no use of NTP here for the calculation purposes. N2 : 6.023 * 10^22 molecules = 0.1 moles He : 2 gm = 1 mole O2 : 8 gm 0.25 moles Mole FRACTION of N2 : 0.1 /(0.1+1+0.25) = 0.1/1.35 = 20/27 |

Potassium crystallizes in a body centered cubic lattice.Calculate the approx no. of unit cells in 1gm of potassium? |
|
Answer» dy centered CUBIC lattice structure, called bcc or bl, we have atoms present in the center of the unit cube or cell. ONE atom is present at the center and 8 atoms at the 8 centers of the unit cell of the crystal lattice. Thus, if we consider the atoms to be spherical with RADIUS r, and the edge or side of the cube to be a units, then we have: √3 a = r + 2r + r = 4 r, as the atoms at the diagonally opposite atoms of the cube are in line with the atom in the middle at the center of the cube. As each of the atoms at the corners contributes to 1/8 of a sphere into the cube, the cube consists of 1 atoms + 1/8 * 8 atoms = 2 atoms. remaining SPACE is void. So amount of volume occupied by the 2 atoms = 2 * 4π/3 r³ = 8π/3 * (√3/4a)³ size of the cube = a³ The ratio = space utilization of phosphorous lattice bcc = √3π/8 = 68%so 32 % of the space is empty in the bcc lattice.Phosphorous atomic weight = 19 so 19 gms consist of 6.023 * 10^23 atoms. 1 gm consists of 3.17 * 10^22 atoms. there are two atoms in a unit cell. Hence there are 1.585 * 10^22 units cells in 1 gm of Phosphorous. |

Delhi Public School, Kurukshetra Class VI (holidays assignment) Science State whether the following statement is true or false. Why do you think this way? Iodine is magnetite in nature. |
|
Answer» mical ELEMENT Iodine is DIAMAGNETIC in nature. That is it repels an external magnetic fied. It induces a magnetic field that has direction opposite to the external magentic field.In FERROMAGNETIC or paramagnetic materials, the induced magnetic field is in the same direction as that of external magnetic field. So those materials are ATTRACTED to magnets.In dielectric or non-conductor substances, the electrons are bound to protons within the shells in atoms. The negatively charged electrons go around in circles in atoms. It is like current going in LOOPS. The external magnetic field and the magnetic field of the current loops of charged electrons have repulsive effect.Magnetite is called Iodostone. Iodostone is Ferric oxide which is a naturally occuring ferromagnetic material. |

Example of E2 REACTION ? |
|
Answer» tions are TYPICALLY seen with secondary and tertiary alkyl halides, but a hindered BASE is necessary with a PRIMARY halide. The mechanism by which it occurs is a single step concerted reaction with one transition state. The rate at which this mechanism occurs is second order kinetics, and depends on both the base and alkyl halide. A good leaving group is required because it is involved in the rate determining step. The leaving groups must be coplanar in order to form a pi bond; carbons go from sp3 to sp2 hybridization states. GENERAL Reaction In this reaction Ba represents the base and X representents a leaving group, typically a halogen. There is one transition state that shows the concerted reaction for the base attracting the hydrogen and the halogen taking the electrons from the bond. The product be both eclipse and staggered depending on the transition states. Eclipsed products have a synperiplanar transition states, while staggered products have antiperiplanar transition states. Staggered conformation is usually the major product because of its lower energy confirmation. An E2 reaction has certain requirements to procede: A strong base is necessary especially necessary for primary alkyl halides. Secondary and tertirary primary halides will procede with E2 in the precesence of a base (OH-, RO-, R2N-)Both leaving groups should be on the same plane, this allows the double bond to form in the reaction. In the reaction above you can see both leaving groups are in the plane of the carbons.Follows ZAITSEV's rule, the most substituted alkene is usually the major product.Hoffman Rule, if a strically hindered base will result in the least substituted product. but the diagram had been copied by me. |
