They should identify the confounding variable.
Some condition that is not examined by the scientist might alter the experiment result. That condition is called confounding variable. If the method of the experiment same but result is very different, there should be unidentified confounding variable. It could be air humidity, temperature, ventilation, light, time of the year or anything that might not be seen by naked eye.
Try to redo the experiment with controlling variable as much as possible.
Boyle found that when the pressure of gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. when the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases. this relationship between pressure and volume is called Boyle's law.
Answer:
= 9.28 g CO₂
Explanation:
First write a balanced equation:
CH₄ + 2O₂ -> 2H₂O + CO₂
Convert the information to moles
7.50g CH₄ = 0.46875 mol CH₄
13.5g O₂ = 0.421875 mol O₂
Theoretical molar ratio CH₄:O₂ -> 1:2
Actual ratio is 0.46875 : 0.421875 ≈ 1:1
If all CH₄ is used up, there would need to be more O₂
So O₂ is the limiting reactant and we use this in our equation
Use molar ratio to find moles of CO₂
0.421875 mol O₂ * 1 mol CO₂/2 mol O₂=0.2109375 mol CO₂
Then convert to grams
0.2109375 mol CO₂ = 9.28114 g CO₂
round to 3 sig figs
= 9.28 g CO₂
