A source of error is any factor that may affect the outcome of an experiment. There are countless conceivable sources of error in any experiment; you want to focus on the factors that matter most. Identify each source of error specifically and then explain how that source of error would have affected the results. Keep in mind that an "error" to a scientist does not mean "mistake"; it more closely means "uncertainty".
Many students are tempted to say "human error", but this term is vague and lazy; any decent teacher will not accept it. Instead, think about specific things that happened during the lab exercise where the end results may have been affected.
To give an example one might find in a bio lab: perhaps a water bath's temperature was not monitored very carefully and you found that an enzyme's activity was greater than you expected. In that case, you could write something like,
"The temperature of the water bath during this exercise was not monitored carefully. It is possible that it was warmer or cooler than intended, and this would have affected the enzyme activity accordingly. The fact that our enzyme activity was found to be higher than expected leads me to believe that perhaps the water bath was too warm."

Answer:

Calorimetry experiment refers to the measurement of change in energy of a system by measuring the heat exchanged by the system with its surroundings. A potential source of error in this experiment is the unwanted heat loss to the environment which can reduced by adding lid and insulating its sides.  Also, the experiment must be repeated multiple times in order to obtain reliable results.

What is the metal cation in K,SO,? (cation is pronounced cat-ion and refers to a positively charged ion)
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Potassium cation = K⁺²

Explanation:

The metal cation in K₂SO₄ is K⁺². While the anion is SO₄²⁻.

All the metals have tendency to lose the electrons and form cation. In given compound the metal is potassium so it should form the cation. The overall compound is neutral.

The charge on sulfate is -2. While the oxidation state of potassium is +1. So in order to make compound overall neutral there should be two potassium cation so that potassium becomes +2 and cancel the -2 charge on sulfate and make the charge on compound zero.

2K⁺²  ,  SO₄²⁻

K₂SO₄

How many moles are present in 54.8 mL of mercury if the density of mercury is 13.6 g/mL?​
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

3.72 mol Hg

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
  • Density = Mass over Volume

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

D = 13.6 g/mL

54.8 mL Hg

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of Hg - 200.59 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Find</u>

13.6 g/mL = x g / 54.8 mL

x = 745.28 g Hg

<u>Step 4: Convert</u>

<u />745.28 \ g \ Hg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Hg}{200.59 \ g \ Hg} ) = 3.71544 mol Hg

<u>Step 5: Check</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>

3.71544 mol Hg ≈ 3.72 mol Hg

A sample of table sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) has a mass of 1.202 g.
Archy [21]

Answer:

a) 0.003512 moles

b) Moles C= 0.04214 moles carbon

Moles H = 0.07726 moles hydrogen

Moles O = 0.03863 moles of oxygen

c) C atoms = 2.54 *10^22 carbon atoms

H atoms = 4.65 *10^22 hydrogen atoms

O atoms = 2.33 *10^22 oxygen atom

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sucrose = 1.202 grams

Molar mass of sucrose = 342.3 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of sucrose

Moles sucrose = Mass sucrose / molar mass sucrose

Moles sucrose = 1.202 grams / 342.3 g/mol

Moles sucrose = 0.003512 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of each element

For 1 mol of C12H22O11 we have 12 moles of carbon, 22 moles of hydrogen and 11 moles of oxygen

Moles C: 12*0.003512 = 0.04214 moles carbon

Moles H: 22* 0.003512 = 0.07726 moles hydrogen

Moles O: 11* 0.003512 = 0.03863 moles of oxygen

Step 4: Calculate the number of atoms

C atoms = 6.022 *10^23 / mol * 0.04214 moles = 2.54 *10^22 atoms carbon

H atoms = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol * 0.07726 moles = 4.65 *10^22 atoms H

O atoms = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol * 0.03863 moles = 2.33 *10^22 atoms O

0.003512 moles of sucrose containse 6.022 *10^23 * 0.003512 = 2.11 * 10^21 sucrose molecules
