Let us differentiate accuracy from precision. Accuracy is the nearness of the measured value to the true or exact value. On the other hand, precision is the nearness of the measured values between each other. So, for precision, select the student in which the measured values are very near to each other. That would be Student III. Now, for accuracy, let's find the average for each student.

Student I: (<span>8.72g+8.74g+8.70g)/3 = 8.72 g
Student II: (</span><span>8.56g+8.77g+8.83g)/3 = 8.72 g
Student III: (</span><span>8.50g+8.48g+8.51g)/3 = 8.50 g
Student IV: (</span><span>8.41g+8.72g+8.55g)/3 = 8.56 g

From the given results, the accurate one would be Students I and II. So, we make a compromise. Even though Student III is precise, it is not accurate. If you compare between Students I and II, the more precise data would be Student I. Therefore, the answer is Student I.</span>

A small hole in the wing of a space shuttle requires a 20.7-cm2 patch, (a) What is the patch's area in square kilometers (km2)?
bixtya [17]

Answer:

(a) The area of space shuttle is 2.07\times 10^{-9} km^2.

(b) $10.427 is the cost of the patch.

Explanation:

Area of the patch of the space shuttle = 20.7 cm^2

a) 1 cm = 0.00001 km

1 cm^2= (0.00001 km)^2=10^{-10}km^2

20.7 cm^2=20.7\times 10^{-10}km^2=2.07\times 10^{-9} km^2

b) 1 cm = 0.393701 inch

1 cm ^2=0.1550 inch^2

20.7 cm^2=20.7\times 0.1550 inch^2=3.2085 inch^2

Cost of patching area = \$3.25/inch^2

Cost of patching 3.2085 inch^2 are:

\$3.25/inch^2\times 3.2085 inch^2=\$10.427

How many total ions are present in 347g of cacl2?
vladimir1956 [14]

In 1 mole of CaCl_{2}, there are 3 moles of ions, 1 mole of Ca^{2+} and 2 mole of Cl^{-1}.

CaCl_{2}\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}

Molar mass of CaCl_{2} is 110.98 g/mol. Calculating number of moles from given mass as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}=\frac{347 g}{110.98 g/mol}=3.12 mol

Thus, number of moles of ions will be 3\times 3.12 mol=9.38 mol.

Since, 1 mole of any substance has 6.023\times 10^{23} units of that substance where 6.023\times 10^{23}  is Avogadro's number.

Thus, 9.38 mol of ions will have 9.38\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=5.65\times 10^{24} number of ions.

Therefore, total number of ions in 347 g of CaCl_{2} is  5.65\times 10^{24}.

In an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed from the surroundings. How does this affect entropy?
balandron [24]

Answer: -

Thus the entropy of the particles in the surroundings move slower and have decreased entropy.

Explanation: -

In an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed from the surroundings.

So the particles in the surroundings lose energy to the system during an endothermic reaction.

Due to a loss in their kinetic energy, the particles move slower.

Thus the entropy of the particles in the surroundings move slower and have decreased entropy.
