Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

A scientific investigation is performed to answer and explain any natural phenomenon or event.  

Any scientific investigation can be performed by following the scientific method which includes many sequential steps which begin with making an observation, asking a question, do background research, propose a hypothesis which can be tested with experiments.

The main focus of any scientific investigation begins after proposing a well educated guess called hypothesis. A hypothesis is constructed on the basis of previous work due to which it explains the phenomenon to a limited extent which has to be tested.  

Thus, a hypothesis gives a direction and is the focus of a scientific investigation and is the correct answer.

What amount (moles) is represented by each of these samples?
Zinaida [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                  a)  Moles of Caffeine  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol

                  b) Moles of Ethanol   =  4.5 × 10⁻³ mol

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Data Given:

                  Mass of Caffeine  =  20 mg  =  0.02 g

                  M.Mass of Caffeine  =  194.19 g.mol⁻¹

                  Molecules of Ethanol  =  2.72 × 10²¹

Calculate Moles of Caffeine as,

                               Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.Mass

Putting values,

                               Moles  =  0.02 g ÷ 194.19 g.mol⁻¹

                                Moles  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Calculate Moles of Ethanol as,

                                                         As we know one mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 10²³ particles (atoms, ions, molecules or formula units). This number is also called as Avogadro's Number.

The relation between Moles, Number of Particles and Avogadro's Number is given as,

                          Number of Moles  =  Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³

Putting values,

                          Number of Moles  =  2.72 × 10²¹ Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³

                          Number of Moles  =  4.5 × 10⁻³ Moles

On a cool morning (12"C), a balloon is filled with 1.5 L of helium. By mid afternoon, the temperature has soared to 32°C. What i
ddd [48]

Answer:

1.6 L

Explanation:

Using Charle's law  

\frac {V_1}{T_1}=\frac {V_2}{T_2}

Given ,  

V₁ = 1.5 L

V₂ = ?

T₁ = 12 °C

T₂ = 32 °C  

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (12 + 273.15) K = 285.15 K  

T₂ = (32 + 273.15) K = 305.15 K  

Using above equation as:

\frac{1.5}{285.15}=\frac{V_2}{305.15}

V_2=\frac{1.5\cdot \:305.15}{285.15}

New volume = 1.6 L
