Answer:

              Percentage error  =  1.88 %

Solution:

Data Given:

                 Mass of Sample  =  20.46 g

                 Volume of Sample  =  43.0 mL - 40.0 mL  =  3.0 mL

Formula Used:

                 Density  =  Mass / Volume

Putting values,

                 Density  =  20.46 g /  3.0 mL

                 Density  =  6.82 g.mL⁻¹

Percentage Error:

                 Experimental Value  =  6.82 g.mL⁻¹

                 Accepted Value  =  6.95 g.mL⁻¹

                 = 6.82 g.mL⁻¹ / 6.95 g.mL⁻¹ × 100  =  98.12 %

                 Percentage Error  =  100 % - 98.12 %

                Percentage error  =  1.88 %

BigorU [14]
In order to determine the density of an item, we will need to determine its mass and volume. The standard unit for measuring mass in a lab is the gram. Think about liquids- what units do you typically report the volume of a liquid in? What about for a sugar cube, what volume is the most appropriate?
A regular object like a sugar cube can be measured with a ruler so we might report the volume in centimeters cubed (cm3). An irregular object like the plate pictured below can be measured by using a technique called volume by displacement. A liquid (typically water) is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume of a liquid is measured. Then the irregular object is placed in the liquid and the volume is measured again. The change in volume is the irregular object’s volume. This measurement is often made using a graduated cylinder and recording a volume in Liters or milliliters (mL).

Describe how particles of iron (Fe) an oxygen (O2) react to how produce oxide (Fe2O3), also known as rust.
forsale [732]

Answer:

Described by a redox reaction below

Explanation:

Iron(III) oxide is an ionic compound, since it consists of a metal, iron, and a nonmetal, oxygen.

Ionic compounds are formed when metals lose their valence electrons in order to have an octet in their previous shell and donate them to nonmetal atoms, so that nonmetals fill their outer shell to have an octet.

As a result, positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) are formed. When iron reacts with oxygen, the following reaction takes place:

4 Fe (s) + 3 O_2 (g)\rightarrow 2 Fe_2O_3 (s)

This is a redox (oxidation–reduction) reaction, since we have electron loss and gain. Four iron atoms lose a total of 12 electrons to obtain a +3 charge in the final compound, while 3 oxygen molecules gain these 12 electrons to become 6 oxide anions with a -2 charge.

storchak [24]
<span>In a popular classroom demonstration, solid sodium is added to liquid water and reacts to produce hydrogen gas and aqueous sodium hydroxide. Balanced chemical equation for this reaction is given below. Na-sodium , H2o- water, H-hydrogen gas and NaOH- aqueous sodium hydroxide. Two atoms of Na react with two atoms of water and this reaction will give us H (hydrogen gas) and two atoms of NaOH (aqueous sodium hydroxide). 2Na + 2 H2o = H2 +2NaOH.</span>
