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.

Some versions of the periodic table show hydrogen at the top of Group 1A(1) and at the top of Group 7A(17). What properties of h
lawyer [7]

Answer:Hydrogen is placed such because it exhibits some similar characteristics of both group1 and group VII elements.

Explanation:

The reason why hydrogen is similar to group 1 metals:

#It has same valence electron and inorder achieve octet state it can lose that electron and forms H+ ion

#It acts as a good reducing agent similar to group1 metals

#It can also halides

Similarity to halogens:

#hydrogen can also gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration. It can combine with other non metals to form molecules with covalent bonding.

#It exists as diatomin molecule,H2

#Have the same electronegativity nature

#its reaction with other metal

A 15.0-L rigid container was charged with 0.500 atm of kryp‑ ton gas and 1.50 atm of chlorine gas at 350.8C. The krypton and chl
Alecsey [184]

Answer: 32.94 g

Explanation: It's stoichiometry problem so balanced equation is required. The balanced equation is given below:

Kr+2Cl_2\rightarrow KrCl_4

From the balanced equation, krypton and chlorine react in 1:2 mol ratio. We will calculate the moles of each reactant gas using ideal gas law equation(PV = nRT) and then using mol ratio the limiting reactant is figured out that helps to calculate the amount of the product formed.

for Krypton, P = 0.500 atm and for chlorine, P = 1.50 atm

V = 15.0 L

T = 350.8 + 273 = 623.8 K

For krypton, n=\frac{0.500*15.0}{0.0821*623.8}

n = 0.146 moles

for chlorine, n=\frac{1.50*15.0}{0.0821*623.8}

n = 0.439

From the mole ratio, 1 mol of krypton reacts with 2 moles of chlorine. So 0.146 moles of krypton will react with 2 x 0.146 = 0.292 moles of chlorine.

Since 0.439 moles of chlorine are available, it is present in excess and hence the limiting reactant is krypton.

So, the amount of product formed is calculated from moles of krypton.

Molar mass of krypton tetrachloride is 225.61 gram per mol.

There is 1:1 mol ratio between krypton and krypton tetrachloride.

0.146molKr(\frac{1molKrCl_4}{molKr})(\frac{225.61gKrCl_4}{1molKrCl_4})

= 32.94 g of KrCl_4

So, 32.94 g of the product will form.

In a chemical reaction, the limiting reagent is the chemical being used up while the excess reactant is the chemical left after the reaction process.

Before calculating the limiting and excess reactant, it is important to balance the equation first by stoichiometry.

C25N3H30Cl + NaOH = C25N3H30OH + NaCl

Since the reaction is already balanced, we can now identify which is the limiting and excess reagent.

First, we need to determine the number of moles of each chemical in the equation. This is crucial for determining the limiting and excess reagent.

<span>Assuming that there is the same amount  of solution X for each reactant</span>

1.0 M NaOH ( X ) = 1.0 moles NaOH

1.00 x 10-5 M C25N3H30Cl ( X ) = 1.00 x 10-5 moles C25N3H30Cl

<span>The result showed that the crystal violet has lesser amount than NaOH. Thus, the limiting reactant in this chemical reaction is crystal violet and the excess reactant is NaOH.</span>
