What mass of hydrogen peroxide must be used to produce 1.00 L of oxygen gas at 25.0°C and 1.00 ATM?

2.79g

Explanation:

First let us obtain the number of mole of O2 produced at 1atm and 25°C. This is illustrated below:

V (volume) = 1L

P (pressure) = 1 atm

T (temperature) = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K

R (gas constant) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

n (number of mole) =?

Using the ideal gas equation PV = nRT, the number of mole can be obtained as follow:

PV = nRT

n = PV /RT

n = 1x1/(0.082x298)

n = 0.041mole

Therefore the number of mole of O2 produced is 0.041mole.

Now let us generate a balanced equation for the decomposition of Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce oxygen(O2). This is shown below:

2H2O2 —> 2H2O + O2

From the equation,

2 moles of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) produced 1 mole of oxygen(O2).

Therefore, Xmol of Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) will produce 0.041mole of oxygen(O2) i.e

Xmol of Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) = 0.041 x 2 = 0.082 mole.

Now let us calculate the mass of H2O2 in 0.082 mole of H2O2. This is shown below:

Molar Mass of H2O2 = (2x1) + (16x2) = 2 + 32 = 34g/mol

Number of mole of H2O2 = 0.082 mole

Mass of H2O2 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of H2O2 = 0.082 x 34

Mass of H2O2 = 2.79g

Therefore, 2.79g of Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is used in the reaction

pre-sliced bread is a relatively recent development in baking technology. previous to that, it was always sold in a bakery in daily-made contiguous loaves with no wrapping, and was moderately perishable, usually being used with a day or two (which is why every bakery had a discounted “day-old” bread table.) therefore, pre-sliced bread would grow stale quickly. the hard crust provided a protective layer, and once the exposed dry slice left from the previous cut was removed, the interior was still soft.

what keeps bread soft is the moisture retained in the crumb (the light spongy part that’s not crust). the reason the crust develops is the surface of the dough gets exposed to hot dry air during baking which browns the outer layer and seals it, preventing all the moisture from escaping the dough. longer exposure to air will also eventually cause your bread to lose flavor and become stale.

people were used to cutting slices as they needed them and storing bread in a specially-made wooden or metal breadbox or pail with a lid to preserve it longer, but the first automatically sliced commercial loaves were produced on july 6, 1928, in chillicothe, missouri, using a machine invented by otto rohwedder, an iowa-born, missouri-based jeweler.[1] pre-sliced bread would indeed dry out, were it not for another 20th century technology: the plastic bag. bread could now be pre-sliced, and if the enclosing bag remains sealed as much as possible, the bread will remain soft and fresh for longer than if sitting unwrapped on a shelf or enclosed in a bread box that is not air-tight. sealed packaging meant bread could also be sold on store shelves and eliminate frequent trips to a bakery.

sealing bread in a plastic bag had another effect: the moisture in the loaf will re-distribute into the crust and soften it, which is sometimes more pleasing in a sandwich - especially for children whose teeth might not yet be strong enough to tear through a hard crust. a homemade loaf of bread can be sealed in a bag overnight and the crust will become soft like store-bought sandwich bread.

these were novel changes in how bread was produced and sold, which led to the coining of the phrase “the greatest thing since sliced bread.”
