Answer:

Q₁₀ = 2

Explanation:

The Q₁₀ can be calculated by the following equation:

[tex] Q_{10} = \frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}^{10^{\circ} C/(T_{2}-T_{1})} [/tex]

where R: is the rate and T: is the temperature

With R₁=0.3 ml O₂/h, R₂=0.6 ml O₂/h, T₁=25 °C and T₂=35 °C, the Q₁₀ is:

[tex] Q_{10} = \frac{0.6 ml O_{2}/h}{0.3 ml O_{2}/h}^{10^{\circ} C/(35 -25)^{\circ} C} = 2 [/tex]

Therefore the Q₁₀ temperature coefficient of eggs is 2.

I hope it helps you!
