It can be said that the measurements of the students are precise but not accurate.

<h3>What is accuracy and precision?</h3>

Accuracy is the degree of conformity of a measure to a true or standard value while precision is the ability of a measurement to be reproduced consistently.

Simply put, measurements are said to be accurate when they are close to a true or standard value but are said to be precise when they are close to one another.

According to this question, a student measures the mass of 40 mL of a liquid 3 times and obtained the following mass readings: 28.5g, 28.4g and 28.2g.

Based on the measurement, the measured data are precise because they are close to one another but are not accurate because they are not near the standard value of 37.9g.

Please answer both questions.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

1)Krypton

2)11H

Explanation:

electrons=protons

protons=atomic number

mass number=protons+neutrons

mass number is the superscript

atomic number is the subscript.

1)The answer is Krypton because its atomic number= number of protons=number of electrons is 36.

mass number is 46+36=82.

2)subscript=atomic number=number of protons=number of electrons

i. H = electrons=1

=neutrons=0

ii. Cl=electrons=17

=neutrons=35-17=18

iii. Na=electrons=11

=neutrons=23-11= 12

so the answer is Hydrogen because it has 1 electron and 0 neutron.

I hope this helps.

The density of lead is 11.3g/cm^3 and the density of chromium is 7.14g/cm^3. If we have one gram of each metal, what is the rati

Lady bird [3.3K]

The ratio of the volume of lead to the volume of chromium is 22 : 35

Density is simply defined as the mass of a substance per unit volume of the substance.

<h3>Density = mass / volume </h3>

To solve the question given above, we'll begin by calculating the volume of lead and chromium. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of lead = 1 g

Density of lead = 11.3 g/cm³

<h3>Volume of lead =? </h3>

Density = mass /volume

11.3 = 1 / Volume

Cross multiply

11.3 × Volume = 1

Divide both side by 11.3

Volume = 1 / 11.3

<h3>Volume of lead = 0.088 cm³</h3>

<h3>For Chromium:</h3>

Mass of chromium = 1 g

Density of chromium = 7.14 g/cm³

<h3>Volume of chromium =? </h3>

Density = mass /volume

7.14 = 1 / Volume

Cross multiply

7.14 × Volume = 1

Divide both side by 7.14

Volume = 1 / 7.14

<h3>Volume of chromium = 0.14 cm³</h3>

Finally, we shall determine the ratio of the volume of lead to the volume chromium. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of lead = 0.088 cm³

Volume of chromium = 0.14 cm³

<h3>Ratio of the volume of lead to chromium =? </h3>

Ratio = Volume of lead / Volume of chromium

Ratio = 0.088 / 0.14

Ratio = 22 / 35

<h3>Ratio = 22 : 35</h3>

Therefore, the ratio of the volume of lead to the volume chromium is 22 : 35

What volume would 3.00 moles of neon gas have at 295 K and 645 mmHg?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

V = 85.619 L

Explanation:

To solve, we can use the ideal gas law equation, PV = nRT.

P = pressure (645 mmHg)

V = volume (?)

n = amount of substance (3.00 mol)

R = ideal gas constant (62.4 L mmHg/mole K)

T = temperature (295K)

Now we would plug in the appropriate numbers into the equation using the information given and solve for V.

(645)(V) = (3.00)(62.4)(295)

(V) = (3.00)(62.4)(295)/645

V = 85.619 L
