Why is it necessary to be able to replicate the results of a scientific experiment

1 answer:

6 0

Because it looses it's science-street-cred if it can't be replicated.

Essentially.

If you can replicate an experiment you can prove that the results are not just a stroke of luck or happening by chance, but instead that the variables are causing the results and they will always as long as the factors of the experiment remain the same. That is the definition of a scientific experiment.

adoni [48]

Answer: BF3

Explanation: boron needs 4 electron to obtain octet and Fluorine has just one. For the valence shell to be completely filled it will have to form BF4- with 4 fluorine atom surrounding it.

Answer:

Volume of NaOH, aka V2 = 6.32 mL to 3 sig. fig.

A chemistry student weighs out 0.0941 g of hypochlorous acid (HClo) into a 250. ml. volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. He plans to titrate the acid with 0.2000 M NaOH solution. Calculate the volume of NaOH solution the student will need to add to reach the equivalence point. Round your answer to 3 significant digits mL.

Explanation:

1 mole HClO = 74.44g

0.0941g = $\frac{0.0941}{74.44}$ = 0.00126 moles

Concentration = no. of moles/volume in L

Hence, Concentration of HClO = 0.00126/ 0.250L

= 0.005M.

C1V1 =C2V2

0.005 × 250 mL = 0.2 × V2

Volume of NaOH, aka V2 = 6.32 mL to 3 sig. fig.
