Sewage and industrial pollutants dumped into a body of water can reduce the dissolved oxygen concentration and adversely affect

aquatic species. In one study, weekly readings are taken from the same location in a river over a two-month period. The week 3 measurement in the data set is suspected of being an outlier.
True or False: According to the Q test, the value at week 3 can be rejected at the 95% confidence level.

Answer:

FALSE

Since 0.385 < 0.526, the value for week 3 is accepted.

Explanation:

Qexp = (|Xq - Xₙ₋₁|)/w

where Xq is the suspected outlier; Xₙ₋₁ is the next nearest data point; w is the range of data

First, the data are arranged in decreasing order, from highest to lowest:

3. 5.6

2. 5.1

8. 5.1

1. 4.9

6. 4.9

5. 4.7

7. 4.5

4. 4.3

Xq = 5.6; Xₙ₋₁ = 5.1; w = 5.6 - 4.3 = 1.3

Qexp = (|5.6 - 5.1|)/1.3 = 0.385

From tables, at 95% confidence level, for n = 8, Qcrit = 0.526

Since 0.385 < 0.526, the value for week 3 is accepted.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

a) ^{131}_{53} I

b) ^{192}_{77} Ir

c) ^{153}_{62} Sm

Explanation:

The symbols of the isotopes are written like

^{A}_{Z} X

where,

X is the element

A is the mass number (protons + neutrons)

Z is the atomic number (protons)

<em>a) Iodine-131</em>

The atomic number of iodine is 53. The mass number of this isotope is 131. The symbol is ^{131}_{53} I.

<em>b) Iridium-192</em>

The atomic number of iridium is 77. The mass number of this isotope is 192. The symbol is ^{192}_{77} Ir.

<em>c) Samarium-153</em>

The atomic number of samarium is 62. The mass number of this isotope is 153. The symbol is ^{153}_{62} Sm.

Beryllium oxide, Beo, is an electrical insulator. How
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

There are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.

Explanation:

We can calculate the number of moles (η) of BeO as follows:

\eta = \frac{m}{M}

Where:

m: is the mass = 250 g

M: is the molar mass = 25.0116 g/mol

Hence, the number of moles is:

\eta = \frac{250 g}{25.0116 g/mol} = 10.0 moles

Therefore, there are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.  

I hope it helps you!
