Answer 1

Answer:

1. To determine whether a substance is an acid or a base, count the hydrogens on each substance before and after the reaction. If the number of hydrogens has decreased that substance is the acid (donates hydrogen ions). If the number of hydrogens has increased that substance is the base (accepts hydrogen ions).
2. Exponential functions have the form f(x) = bx, where b > 0 and b ≠ 1. Just as in any exponential expression, b is called the base and x is called the exponent. An example of an exponential function is the growth of bacteria. Some bacteria double every hour.
3. Food texture is defined as those properties of a food that are sensed by touch in the mouth and with the hands. We use many words to describe food texture—foods can be soft or hard, mushy or crunchy, or smooth or lumpy. Texture is important to the enjoyment and acceptability of foods.
