Why do you think it is important to use the same blanace throughout the entire experiment?

1 answer:

6 0

It is important to use the same balance throughout the entire experiment since the calibration of each balance is not the same and changing balances could result in a systematic error.

There are three types of errors that could affect the results of the experiment. The effect of random or indeterminate errors is hard to predict, its effect on the results of the experiment could be different every time. The second type of error is the systematic or determinate error, which causes a shift in results in a specific direction. The last type of error in an experiment is human error.

The type of error that could be related to the use of different balances throughout the experiment is the systematic error. Instruments could be a source of error especially if they are poorly calibrated. Also, analytical balances are calibrated differently which may result in inaccuracy in the weighing of chemicals.

What is the vapor pressure of the solution if 35.0 g of water is dissolved in 100.0 g of ethyl alcohol at 25 ∘C? The vapor press

masya89 [10]

Answer: The vapor pressure of the solution is 43.55 mmHg

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For water:

Given mass of water = 35.0 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of water}=\frac{35.0g}{18g/mol}=1.944mol$

For ethyl alcohol:

Given mass of ethyl alcohol = 100.0 g

Molar mass of ethyl alcohol = 46 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of ethyl alcohol}=\frac{100.0g}{46g/mol}=2.174mol$

Total moles of solution = [1.944 = 2.174] moles = 4.118 moles

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

$\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}$

For water:

$\chi_{\text{water}}=\frac{n_{\text{water}}}{n_{\text{water}}+n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}$

$\chi_{water}=\frac{1.944}{4.118}=0.472$

For ethyl alcohol:

$\chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}=\frac{n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}{n_{\text{water}}+n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}$

$\chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}=\frac{2.174}{4.118}=0.528$

Dalton's law of partial pressure states that the total pressure of the system is equal to the sum of partial pressure of each component present in it.

To calculate the vapor pressure of the solution, we use the law given by Dalton, which is:

$P_T=\sum_{i=1}^n (p_i\times \chi_i)$

Or,

$P_T=[(p_{\text{water}}\times \chi_{\text{water}})+(p_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}\times \chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}$

We are given:

Vapor pressure of water = 23.8 mmHg

Vapor pressure of ethyl alcohol = 61.2 mmHg

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_T=[(23.8\times 0.472)+(61.2\times 0.528)]\\\\p_T=43.55mmHg$

Hence, the vapor pressure of the solution is 43.55 mmHg

All moving parts produce friction. true or false

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Hey there! :D

To some extent, all moving parts produce friction. It can be very small or minimal, but all parts produce some form of friction.

This is true.

I hope this helps!
