9.2% is the answer in this question asking for the percent error of the students calculated density. The formula that will be given;
density = 9.78g/cm^3
d = 9.78g/cm^3
accepted is on the RT table S = 8.96g/cm^3
%error = (measured - accepted)/accepted * 100%
%error = (9.78 - 8.96/8.96) * 100%
%error = 9.15% or approximately 9.2%

Answer:

3. 9.2%

Explanation:

The formula for density is on Reference Table T.

density equals mass over volume

The student would use his measurements to calculate the density of the sample.

density equals mass over volume, which equas 48 point 9 grams over 5 point zero zero cubic centimeters, which equals 9 point 7 eight grams per cubic centimeter

Reference Table S lists the density of copper as 8.96g/cm3.

The formula for percent error is found on Reference Table T.

percent error equals measured value minus accepted value over the accepted value times 100. percent error equals 9 point 7 eight grams per cubic centimeter minus 8 point 9 five grams per cubic centimeter over 8 point 9 five grams per cubic centimeter times 100, which equals 9 point 2 percent.

Which statement best describes what happens when oil and water are stirred together? (1 point)
Charra [1.4K]

When oil and water are stirred together, water molecules will attract each other electrically, but they will not attract oil molecules, causing separation.

  • Water is a polar molecule while oil is a non-polar molecule. Water can only dissolve polar molecules and hence, oil is insoluble in water.

  • When water comes in contact with oil, water molecules attract each other, while the oil molecules stick together, hence, forming two separate layers of water and oil. The oil layer floats on the water layer.

  • Therefore, when oil and water are stirred together, water molecules will attract each other electrically, but they will not attract oil molecules, causing separation.

A piece of aluminum foil 1.00cm square and 0.590mm thick is allowed to react with bromine to form aluminum bromide. Part A How m
nalin [4]

Answer:

Part A: 5.899x10^-3 moles of Al

Part B: 1.573 g of AlBr3

Explanation:

Part A: We have to obtain the volume of the piece of aluminium; all sides of the square must be in cm. Then, use the density to obtain the mass.

0.590 mm  (\frac{1 cm}{10 mm}) = 0.059 cm

V= lxlxl= (1cm)(1cm)(0.059 cm)= 0.059 cm^3.

0.059 is the volume of the Al udes for the reaction. Now, to oabtain the moles:

0.059 cm^3 Al(\frac{2.699 g Al}{1 cm^3 Al})(\frac{1 mol Al}{27 g Al})= 5.899x10^-3 moles

Part B: To obatin the mass of AlBr3, we need the balanced chemical equation:

                                               2Al + 3Br2 → 2AlBr3

We assume bromine (Br2) is in excess, therefore, we calculate the aluminum bromide formed from the Al:

5.898 x 10^-3 moles Al (\frac{2 moles AlBr3}{2 moles Al}) (\frac{266.7 g AlBr3}{1 mol AlBr3}) = 1.573 g of Al

(9). A machine has a mechanical advantage of 0.6. What force should be applied to the machine to make it apply 600 N to an objec
Bogdan [553]
(9) Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied to machine
0.6 = 600 / F
F = 1000 N

(2) Efficiency = (output / input) x 100
Efficiency = (500 / 2000) x 100
Efficiency = 25%

(4) The overall energy conversion in power plants is chemical to electrical while in dams it is potential to electrical.

(5) Using the formula:

Imagine you are a lab technician, and a colleague informs you there have been problems with the 25.0-mL samples you have been pr
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

22.5mL is the volume of the water

Explanation:

When the graduated cylinder is  in the 25.0mL mark, the mass of this volume is 22.4g. To convert this mass to volume we need to use density, as follows:

22.4g × (1mL / 0.99704g) = 22.5mL is the volume of the water.

That means the cylinder is uncalibrated in 2.5mL when the cylinder is in the 25.0mL mark

Choose chlorous acid, hclo2, from the list above and press the equilibrate button. when the 0.10 m solution of hclo2 is allowed
Arturiano [62]
Chlorous Acid Ionizes as,

                                        HClO₂   ⇆   H⁺  +   ClO₂⁻

                                        Ka  =  [H⁺] [ClO₂⁻] / [HClO₂]

 Ka of Chlorous Acid  =  1.1 × 10⁻²

The concentration of H⁺ ions at equilibrium are calculated as,

Initial                               0.1 M     ⇆    0          0
At Equilibrium                 0.1-X      ⇆    X         X
So,
                                       Ka  =  [X] [X] / [0.1-X]
Putting value of Ka,
                                1.1 × 10⁻²  =  X² / 0.1-X
Solving for X,
(www.cymath.com)
                                 X  =  0.028 M

Hence at equilibrium concentration of H⁺ and ClO₂⁻ is 0.028 M.

Percentage Ionization is calculated as,

                                 =  [H⁺] / [HA] × 100

                                 =  (0.028 / 0.1) × 100

                                 =  0.28 × 100

                                 =  28 %     (Percentage Ionization)
