AI Thread Summary
SO2 does dissolve in sugarcane solution during the sugar refining process, leading to the acidification of the solution. However, this does not imply that the final refined sugar product is acidic. The acidification occurs during processing, but the final product's acidity is not determined solely by this intermediate step.

If SO2 is used during processing - yes on both accounts.

sir,can i say refined sugar is acidic?
 
Just because at some point of production solution is acidified doesn't mean the final product is acidic.

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
