Answer:

14.9075 g, 28.67%, 0.11%

Explanation:

The mean concentration of calcium = summation x / frequency

= ( 14.92 + 1491 + 14.88 + 14.92 ) /4 = 14.9075 g

Standard deviation = √(summation (x - μ)² /n) = √ ( ((14.92 - 14.9075)² +(14.91 - 14.9075)² + (14.88 - 14.9075)² + ( 14.92 - 14.9075)²) / 4) = 0.0164

b)  percent error = abs(14.9075 - 20.90) / 20.90 × 100 = 28.67%

c) relative standard deviation = standard deviation / mean × 100 = 0.0164 /  14.9075 × 100 = 0.11%

d) The accuracy of the measure is the measurement compared to the actual which according to the standard set by the instructor (5%error) is not very accurate because the percent error is high (28.67%) while the relative standard deviation is quite low ( 0.11%) which means the measurement precision is very high.

The student will have to redo the experiment because the experiment was not too accurate since the percent error is way higher than the set value (5%) although the precision was high.

Find the time Δt it takes the magnetic field to drop to zero. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the quantities a, B
Mekhanik [1.2K]
Δt= \frac{NB_0 \pi a^2 }{IR}

This because ε = dΦ/dt, and emf is a voltage so it can also be written as dΦ/dt = IR

Because ΔΦ= ABcosθ for each of the N loops and cosθ is just 1 here only A needs to be replaced, and it can be replaced with A=πr^2, which makes that part of the equation ΔΦ_m=N*B0*πa^2

the energy to break 1 mol of C-C bonds is 348 kj/mol. what would be the minimum frequency of a single photon that would break a
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

f = 5.25 x 10³⁸ s⁻¹

Explanation:

Energy = 348KJ = 348,000 J

Frequency = ?

Energy and frequency are related by the equation below;

E = hf

where h = Planck's constant =  (6.626 x 10-34 J · s),

Upon making f subject of formular;

f = E / h

substituting the values, we have;

f = 348,000 / 6.626 x 10-34

f = 52,520 x 10 ³⁴ s⁻¹

f = 5.25 x 10³⁸ s⁻¹

Micky Mo is a 64-year-old male admitted to the emergency room for asthma. His laboratory results are as follows: pH 7.31, pCO2 h
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Micky Mo is suffering from respiratory acidosis.

Explanation:

The pCO2 level in micky"s body is higher than normal it means the excess amount of  CO2 will reacts with water to generate carbonic acid(H2CO3).

  On the other hand according to the question total HCO3- also higher than normal.As a result the excess HCO3- will react with proton to form carbonic acid which is in turn dissociate to generate CO2 and H2O to maintain normal acid base homeostasis.

 From that point of view it can be said Micky Mo is suffering from respiratory acidosis.

How many grams of water would there be in 100.0g of hydrate? How many moles?
IceJOKER [234]
The calculation for the amount of water present in the given amount of hydrate is shown below,
            amount water = (100 g hydrate) x (0.347 g H2O / 0.946 g hydrate)
                                  = 36.68 g
Thus, the amount of water present in the hydrate is approximately 36.68 g.
