Answer:

25.3 g of KNO₃ contain 0.25 moles.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of KNO₃ = ?

Mass of KNO₃ = 25.3 g

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of KNO₃:

KNO₃ = 39 + 14+ 16×3

KNO₃ = 101 g/mol

Now we will put the values in formula.

Number of moles = 25.3 g/ 101 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.25 mol

Thus, 25.3 g of KNO₃ contain 0.25 moles.

Which statements accurately describe Dmitri Mendeleev’s contributions to the development of the periodic table? Check all that a
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Mendeleev produced the first orderly arrangement of known elements.</u></em>

  • <em><u>Mendeleev used patterns to predict undiscovered elements.</u></em>

Explanation:

  • <u>Mendeleev produced the first orderly arrangement of known elements and used patterns to predict the undiscovered elements.</u>

        Those two statments are true.

For the time being there were some 62 known elements. Before Medeleev some schemes to order part of the elements were proposed, but Medeleev showed the relationship between the atomic mass and the properties of the elements (supports second choice). This arrangement is known as the periodic table.

More importantly, Mendeleev predicted correctly the existance and properties of unknown elements, which is his major contribution: he left blanket spaces which where gradually filled when new elements where discovered (this supports the fourth choice).

The first modern chemistry book was written by Antoine Lavoisier (this discards first option).

Mendeleev ordered the elements by increasing mass number (this discards third choice), which was corrected later by the scientist Henry Moseley, who ordered the elements by increasing atomic number (number of protons).

Isotopes were not known by Mendeleev times, so this discards the last option.

In the compound cah2 calcium has an oxidation number of 2+ and hydrogen has an oxidation number of
sesenic [268]

The oxidation number of H is -1.

Sum of the oxidation numbers in each element = charge of the complex

CaH₂ has 1 Ca atom and 2H atoms. The charge of the complex is zero. Let’s say Oxidation number of H is "a".

Then,

<span>    (+2) + 2 x a = 0 </span>

<span>        +2  + 2a  = 0</span>

                  2a = -2

                    a = -1

Hence, the oxidation number of Hydrogen atom in CaH₂ is -1

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."
