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.

1.04 ⨯ 10^{-4} M

<h3>Explanation</h3>

<em>A</em> = <em>ε</em> \cdot l \cdot c by the Beer-Lambert law, where

  • <em>A</em> the absorbance,
  • l the path length,
  • <em>ε</em> the molar absorptivity of the solute, and
  • c concentration of the solution.

<em>A</em> and <em>ε </em>are the same for both solutions. Therefore, l \cdot c is constant; l is inversely proportional to c. The 100 mL sample would have a concentration 1/4.78 times that of the 45.0 mL reference.

The 13.0 mL standard solution has a concentration of 5.17 ⨯ 10^{-4} M. Diluting it to 45.0 mL results in a concentration of 5.17 \times 10^{-4} \times \frac{13.0}{45.0} = 1.494 M.

c is inversely related to l for the two solutions. As a result, c₂ = c_1 \cdot \frac{l_1}{l_2} = 1.494 \times 10^{-4} \times \frac{1}{4.78} = 3.126 M.

The 30.0 mL sample has to be diluted by 30.0 / 100.0 times to produce the 100.0 mL solution being tested. The 100.0 mL solution has a concentration of 3.126 M. Therefore, the 30.0 mL solution has a concentration of 3.126 \times \frac{100.0}{30.0} = 1.04 ⨯ 10^{-4} M.

PLEASE ANSWER BOTH QUESTIONS I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST IF IT IS CORRECT!!
seropon [69]

Answer:

1st Question: A

2nd Question: B

Explanation:

The 1st answer would be A because if a sample is at absolute zero then the sample is at its lowest temperature none of the molecules would be able to move, this is because lower temperature= lower kinetic energy.

The 2nd answer would be B because if a sample has more temperature it speeds up it has more temperature and more kinetic energy, meaning it would move faster because there is more temperature.

What total volume of ozone measured at a pressure of 24.5 mmHg and a temperature of 232 K can be destroyed when all of the chlor
ddd [48]

Answer:

1.75272\ \text{m}^3

Explanation:

The breakdown reaction of ozone is as follows

CF_3Cl + UV \rightarrow CF_3 + Cl

Cl + O_3 \rightarrow ClO + O_2

O_3 + UV \rightarrow O_2 + O

ClO + O \rightarrow Cl + O_2

It can be seen that 2 moles of ozone is required in the complete cycle

So for 10 cycles, 20 moles of ozone is required

m = Mass of CF_3Cl = 15.5 g

M = Molar mass of CF_3Cl = 104.46 g/mol

P = Pressure = 24.5 mmHg

T = Temperature = 232 K

R = Gas constant = 62.363\ \text{L mmHg/K mol}

Number of moles is given by

n=\dfrac{m}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{15.5}{104.46}\\\Rightarrow n=0.1484\ \text{moles}

20\ \text{moles} = 20\times 0.1484 = 2.968\ \text{moles}

From ideal gas law we have

PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{2.968\times 62.363\times 232}{24.5}\\\Rightarrow V=1752.72\ \text{L}=1.75272\ \text{m}^3

For 20 cycles of the reaction the volume of the ozone is 1.75272\ \text{m}^3.
