Determining if an object will float or sink is based on the density of the object and also the density of the solution, the lower the density, more likely the object is to float, and if the density is higher, therefore the object is heavier and it will sink. In our question we have ebony wood with a density of 1.2, the only possible layer that this material can float is on Chloroform, that has a higher density, therefore the answer is letter A

Name 2 separate problems that occur when a sample for infrared analysis is contaminated with water.
Andreyy89

Explanation:

  • The water molecules gets trapped in the crystal structure to be analysed and will give a peak in the spectra at about 3500 /cm , and there by hindering with the IR spectra of the sample to be analysed .
  • The second problem with the contamination of the sample with water is , that water makes the potassium bromide disc opaque which will decrease the absorption of the IR by the sample .

Compare and contrast how observations and results can be used to
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

by statistical analyses, especially by determining the p-value

Explanation:

In general, observations and results obtained from experimental procedures are subjected to a statistical test to check the robustness of the working hypothesis. The p-value is the most widely used statistical index in order to test such observations and results. The p-value is the statistical probability of obtaining extreme observed results when the null hypothesis is considered correct. A p-value lesser than 0.05 generally is considered statistically significant and then the null hypothesis can be rejected. In consequence, a very low p-value (which is obtained by statistical analysis of the observations and results), indicates that there is strong evidence in support of the alternative hypothesis.
