Scientists conducted an experiment to show whether the ability to see an object affects a person's idea of the mass of the objec

t. They used the following procedure: Obtain two cardboard boxes of different sizes. Place rocks in each box so that both boxes have the same mass. Close each box and tie a string to it so that participants lift each box using the string. Blindfold half of the participants in the experiment. Ask participants to lift each box using the string and report which one they think has more mass. Record results. The table shows the results of the experiment

A sample of oxalic acid (a diprotic acid of the formula H2C2O4) is dissolved in enough water to make 1.00 L of solution. A 100.0
OleMash [197]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of original oxalic acid sample is 6.75 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is H_2C_2O_4

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=2\\M_1=?M\\V_1=100.0mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.750M\\V_2=20.0mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2\times M_1\times 100.0=1\times 0.750\times 20.0\\\\M_1=\frac{1\times 0.750\times 20.0}{2\times 100.0}=0.075M

To calculate the mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Given mass of oxalic acid = ? g

Molar mass of oxalic acid = 90 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.075 M

Volume of solution = 1.00 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.075M=\frac{\text{Mass of oxalic acid}}{90g/mol\times 1L}\\\\\text{Mass of oxalic acid}=(0.075\times 90\times 1)=6.75g

Hence, the mass of original oxalic acid sample is 6.75 grams

Directions: Use the words in the word box to complete the following sentences.
NeX [460]

Explanation:

When the forces acting on an object are balanced , there is no change in the object's motion.

A force acting on a resting object can cause the object to move.

On Earth, gravity pulls all objects toward the ground.

When a force acts in the opposite direction of another force, the forces counteract each other.

More than one force acting on a falling object can reduce its downward acceleration

Air resistance is caused by molecules of air pushing against a moving object

How many grams of carbon are contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K2CO3
romanna [79]

The mass of carbon contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is 0.196 g.

<h3>Molecular mass of potassium carbonate</h3>

The molecular mass of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is calculated as follows;

M = K₂CO₃

M = (39 x 2) + (12) + (16 x 3)

M = 138 g

mass of carbon in potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is = 12 g

The mass of carbon contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is calculated as follows;

138 g ------------ 12 g of carbon

2.25 g ------------ ?

= (2.25 x 12) / 138

= 0.196 g

Thus, the mass of carbon contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is 0.196 g.
