The sensitivity of electronic balance is 0.3 mg

Converting 0.3 mg to g:

0.3 mg * \frac{1g}{1000 mg} = 0.0003g

So, the mass of a substance weighed on the balance can be measured accurately up to four decimal places.

Given the mass of sample is 1.2300 g. The number of significant figures in the measurement will be 5 because the balance can measure the mass of a sample accurately up to four decimal points, all the digits in the measurement will be significant.

An unknown solid is entirely soluble in water. On addition of dilute HCl, a precipitate forms. After the precipitate is filtered
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Pb(NO3)2

Cd(NO3)2

Na2SO4

Explanation:

In the first part, addition of HCl leads to the formation of PbCl2 which is poorly soluble in water. This is the first precipitate that is filtered off.

When the pH is adjusted to 1 and H2S is bubbled in, CdS is formed. This is the second precipitate that is filtered off.

After this precipitate has been filtered off and the pH is adjusted to 8, addition of H2S and (NH4)2HPO4 does not lead to the formation of any other precipitate.

The yellow flame colour indicates the presence of Na^+ which must come from the presence of Na2SO4.

Water flowing at the rate of 13.85 kg/s is to be heated from 54.5 to 87.8°C in a heat exchanger by 54 to 430 kg/h of hot gas flo
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

=> 572.83 K (299.83°C).

=> 95.86 m^2.

Explanation:

Parameters given are; Water flowing= 13.85 kg/s, temperature of water entering = 54.5°C and the temperature of water going out = 87.8°C, gas flow rate 54,430 kg/h(15.11 kg/s). Temperature of gas coming in = 427°C = 700K, specific heat capacity of hot gas and water = 1.005 kJ/ kg.K and 4.187 KJ/kg. K, overall heat transfer coefficient = Uo = 69.1 W/m^2.K.

Hence;

Mass of hot gas × specific heat capacity of hot gas × change in temperature = mass of water × specific heat capacity of water × change in temperature.

15.11 × 1.005(700K - x ) = 13.85 × 4.187(33.3).

If we solve for x, we will get the value of x to be;

x = 572.83 K (2.99.83°C).

x is the temperature of the exit gas that is 572.83 K(299.83°C).

(b). ∆T = 339.2 - 245.33/ln (339.2/245.33).

∆T = 93.87/ln 1.38.

∆T = 291.521K.

Heat transfer rate= 15.11 × 1.005 × 10^3 (700 - 572.83) = 1931146.394.

heat-transfer area = 1931146.394/69.1 × 291.521.

heat-transfer area= 95.86 m^2.

PLZ HELP!!! ILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! You read an article written by an amateur ghost hunter. It includes the following paragraph.
djverab [1.8K]

No, it is not a scientific claim. If a ghost hunter catches a voice on video like ghost hunters do you can either believe it or not. Ghosts are more of a  i believe it you dont have to type of thing becasue they have not been scientifically proven to exist.
