Answer:
0.84 moles of oxygen are required.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of CO₂ produced = 37.15 g
Number of moles of oxygen = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
C + O₂ → CO₂
Number of moles of CO₂:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 37.15 g/ 44 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.84 mol
Now we will compare the moles of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
CO₂ : O₂
1 : 1
0.84 : 0.84
0.84 moles of oxygen are required.
There are two terms
a) accuracy : it relates to the exactness of an answer that how an answer is close to the actual answer or actual reading
So 104.6 is accurate
b) Precision : This is related to the closeness of different readings with each other
The first reading is 103.7 and the second one is 108.4 so the second reading is quite different from the first reading so it cannot be called as precised
Again 105.8 has good difference from the second reading hence again this is not precised
However the last reading 104.6 is quite near to 105.8 so 104.6 can be called as precise
