The percent error associated with Jason’s measurement is 0.596%.

HOW TO CALCULATE PERCENTAGE ERROR:

  • The percentage error of a measurement can be calculated by following the following process:
  1. Find the difference between the true value and the measured value of a quantity.
  2. Then, divide by the true value and then multiplied by 100

  • The true value of the density of iron is 7.874 g/mL
  • Jason observed value is 7.921 g/mL

Difference = 7.921 g/mL - 7.874 g/mL

Difference = 0.047 g/mL

Percentage error = 0.047/7.874 × 100

Percentage error = 0.596%.

Therefore, the percent error associated with Jason’s measurement is 0.596%.

Answer is: ammonia has a higher boiling point because it has stronger intermolecular forces.

Intermolecular forces<span> are the forces between </span><span>molecules. The stronger are intermolecular forces, the higher is boiling point of compound, because more energy is needed to break interaction between molecules.

What is the charge of an atom after it gains an electron during the formation of a bond?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

<em>D. One negative charge</em>

Explanation:

During the formation of a bond, if an atom gains an electron, after that it will be left with a negative charge compared to the atom before the bond is formed. This is because in these types of bonds, which are <em>ionic bonds</em>, there is a <em>transfer of electrons between atoms</em>, there will be one or more atoms that yield electrons that will be captured by another and other atoms that gain them, and the difference of charges produced by this transfer of electrons, will cause the union to occur due to the attraction between electrostatic forces.

If you have a neutral atom before joining, and it gains an electron to form a bond,<em> it will have one electron more than its initial state</em> (in the initial state, the number of protons and electrons is the same, because the atoms they are electrically neutral), so having an extra electron will make it have a negative charge, since there will be a difference between the number of protons and electrons that the atom possesses. <em>This is why the correct answer is D. </em>

In the case of <em>response A and B</em>, <em>the atom could only remain positively charged if it loses electrons</em>, but as in this case it wins, <em>they are not correct</em>.

<em>The answer C is also not correct</em> because only one electron wins, so that it is left with two negative charges, <em>it should gain two electrons during the bond formation.</em>

Which word or group of words is represented by the word "period" in the term Periodic Table?
leonid [27]
The correct answer is C : energy level.

As you can see in the image of the periodic table presented below, periods are the horizontal columns of the periodic table.
Elements belonging to the same period have the same electron shell, the same number of orbits filled with electrons.
Elements of the same period have similar chemical and physical characteristics

Acetylene, C2H2, can be converted to ethane, C2H6, by a process known as hydrogenation. The reaction is C2H2(g)+2H2(g)?C2H6(g)
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Keq =1.50108

Explanation:

The given reactionis

 C₂H₂(g) +2H₂(g) -------------> C₂H₂(g)

   ΔG0 f=ΔG0f n (products) - ΔG0f n (reactants )

              = -32.89 kJ/mol - (209.2 kJ/mol+2*0.0 kJ/mol)

              = - 242.09kJ/mol

   ΔG= -RTlnKeq

   ln Keq = -ΔG/RT

           =-(- 242.09kJ/mol ) / 2 k cal /mol*298 K

           =0.406

    Keq =e0.406

         Keq =1.50108
