In a coffee press, you combine solid coffee grounds and hot water. After a long time, the ground coffee beans are still visible, and the water has turned into a rich dark brown (some of the coffee has dissolved into the liquid). You push the filter in the press down and pour out only the dark water into a cup. You then add milk and sugar to the cup. You also notice that the filter must have a hole in it because there are coffee grounds also in your cup. Calculate the degree of freedom in this system (your cup) at equilibrium. 1 2 3 4

19. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is _CO2 (g) + _H₂O (1)→ __C6H1206 (s) + (C6H12O6 is glucose, the simplest sugar) a. Balance the chemical equation above by filling in the blanks. b. According to onetreeplanted.org, the average tree (across all climates and sizes) removes 10 kg of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere every year. Based on this, what mass of glucose is produced annually by the average tree? O2 (g) c. Teak is a common species of tropical tree. The graph below shows the amount of CO₂ absorbed by teak forests in tons of CO₂ per hectare of forest per year, according to the climate region where the forests are found (dry = low rainfall, humid=high rainfall). Looking at your photosynthesis equation again, what does this data suggest about which reactant is the limiting reactant for teak trees? Explain. C Teak Carbon sequestration rate (tons CO₂ ha -1yr -1) 10 10 20 Tropical humid Tropical dry Aboveground biomass, 0-20 years Belowground biomass, 0 -20 years

Part IV Cabbage Juice Indicator Chop cabbage into small pieces until you have about 2 cups of chopped cabbage. Boil for at least ten minutes to allow time for the color to leach out of the cabbage. Allow it to cool for 15 min • Filter out the plant material to obtain a red-purple-bluish colored liquid. 1. Add 1-2 drops of cabbage juice into a small bowl 2. Add 3-5 drops of vinegar into the bowl with the cabbage juice 3. Observe Is this a chemical change or physical change? Explain? Store the excess cabbage juice in your refrigerator, you will need them for future experiments.
