The correct answer is C. An example of measurement bias in scientific measurement, of the available answers, would be a balance that always reads 0.1g. The other possible answers are all examples of devices or measurement techniques that would help a scientist to avoid measurement bias, rather than contributing to it.

Romashka [77]

<u>Answer:</u> The nuclear fission reaction of U-234.043 is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

For the given fission reaction:

^{234.043}_{92}\textrm{U}\rightarrow ^{137.159}_{54}\textrm{Xe}+^{A}_{38}\textrm{Sr}+3^{1.0087}_0\textrm{n}+180MeV

<u>To calculate A:</u>

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

234.043 = 137.159 + A + 3(1.0087)

A = 93.858

Now, the chemical equation becomes:

^{234.043}_{92}\textrm{U}\rightarrow ^{137.159}_{54}\textrm{Xe}+^{93.858}_{38}\textrm{Sr}+3^{1.0087}_0\textrm{n}+180MeV

Hence, the nuclear fission reaction of U-234.043 is written above.

How can ionic bonds and naming be used in a real life example ?
Stells [14]

Answer:

Melting snow more efficiently in winters, understanding the components of mineral water

Explanation:

Let's split this question into two parts. First of all, ionic bonds:

  • an example would be the application of the freezing point depression law. Remember that adding a solute to a specific solvent would decrease the freezing point of a solvent. This is the reason why we add ionic salts, NaCl, to snow in order to make it melt. Knowledge of the fact that 1 mol of NaCl, an ionic compound, dissociates into 2 mol of ions, sodium and chloride, yields us a van 't Hoff factor of 2 rather than 1 for non-electrolytes, molecular compounds. This means the same molality of ionic compounds would produce a twice larger decrease in the freezing point of a solvent;
  • an example for ionic naming is more trivial. Remember the difference between, say, calcium and calcium cation. Sometimes we may read that mineral water is full of calcium. Having chemical knowledge of ionic compound naming would lead us to a conclusion that this is wrong! Mineral water doesn't have any calcium in it, we don't see any metal in mineral water. However, mineral water contains calcium cations, Ca^{2+} and not Ca.
