Answer:
- <u>TRUE:</u> <em>Percent concentration is one of the most common and basic concentration measurement used by general public</em>
Explanation:
In chemistry there are many <em>concentration measurements</em> used to describe the mixtures. Some of them are, percent, molarity, molality, and molar fraction, among others.
Percent concentration is a popular one because it is commonly understood and used by the non specialist people, i.e. general public.
The percent concentration of a component is defined as: (amount of component in the mixture / amount of mixture) × 100.
The amounts may be measured in mass units (e.g grams) or volume units (e.g. mililiters).
For solutions, mass percent concentration is:
- % = (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100.
And voluem percen contration is:
- % = (volume of solute / volume of solution) × 100
Since percentage is used in many profesional and personal activities, most persons use it.
For example, rubbing alcohol, that everyone buys in pharmacies, is 70%; vinager, used in the food, is acetic acid at 5% - 8%.
Random errors will shift each measurement from its true value by a random amount and in a random direction. These will affect reliability (since they're random) but may not affect the overall accuracy of a result.
Answer:
Since HCl is a strong acid, it completely ionizes, and the pH of HCl in solution can be found from the concentration (molarity) of the H+ ions, by definition equal to 0.100 M. (The conjugate base of the acid, which is the chloride ion Cl–, would also have a concentration of 0.100 M.) The pH is thus –log(0.100) = 1.000.
