Describe the process used to measure out a specific mass of a solid

1 answer:

7 0

Although the process varies slightly from one material to another, the general process is as follows:

1) Choose an appropriate container for the solid. This may be a petri dish or a beaker in which you want to prepare the solution of the solid or any other lab equipment.

2) Place the container on a mass balance, then turn the balance on. The mass balance will automatically zero-out the mass of the container, so that any mass that you add on the container will be the mass of the solid. Alternatively, you may first measure the mass of the empty container alone.

3) Add the solid using a lab spatula. The solid should be added more slowly when the reading on the scale comes close to the desired value.

4) Remove the container from the mass balance after the desired amount of solid has been added.

Kayla owns a food truck that sells tacos and burritos. She sells each taco for $3 and each burrito for $7.25. Yesterday Kayla ma

Naddik [55]

So the put a lot of words to make this seem more complicated than it is. Your first equation involves the money. I’m going to use x to represent tacos and y to represent burritos.
3x+7.25y=595 would be your first equation because you know the price of each item already just not how many. The second would involve the twice as many burritos sold than tacos. So that would mean x+2 would equal y
Y=x+2
Hope this helps. If not I can explain it more in detail.

Consider the hypothetical atom x. if the molecular formula for lithium carbonate is li2co3 and the formula of x chloride is xcl3

eduard

First step is to determine the valency of each of x and CaCO3 from the given compounds:

1- As for Li2CO3: we can deduce that the valency of lithium is one while that of CO3 is two

2- As for XCl3: we can deduce that the valency of chlorine is one while that of X is three

Second step is to write the required compound:
X : CO3 (elements involved)
3 : 2 (write the valency of each)
Then write the positive ion (X) followed by the valency of the negative ion (2) and then the negative ion (CO3) followed by the valency of the positive ion (3).
The final x carbonate is written as: X2(CO3)3
