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.
Week Dissolved O2 (ppm)
1 4.9
2 5.1
3 5.6
4 4.3
5 4.7
6 4.9
7 4.5
8 5.1

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.

What is first and second element of the periodic table?
stira [4]
The elements on the periodic table are listed in increasing atomic number. 

Hydrogen is the first element, and has an A.N. of 1. Also, its very interesting how it doesn't need 8 valence electrons to be stable. 

The second element is Helium, which has an A.N (atomic number) of two.

How is heat produced in a chemical change​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:Hola UwU

Most chemical reactions involve the breaking and formation of chemical bonds. It takes energy to break a chemical bond but energy is released when chemical bonds are formed. If more energy is released than consumed, then the chemical reaction evolves heat and is said to be exothermic.
