Why is a quantitative observation more useful than a non- quantitative one? Which of the following are quantitative?

1 answer:

7 0

A quantitative observation is not necessarily more useful than a non-quantitative one. However, quantitative observations do allow one to ﬁnd trends.

(a), the sun rising is a non-quantitative observation.

(b), knowledge of the numerical relationship between the weight on the Moon and on Earth, is a quantitative observation.

(c), watching ice ﬂoat on water does not involve a measurement; therefore, it must be a qualitative observation.

(d) the fact that we know that the water pump won’t work for depths more than 34 feet makes it quantitative. Again, seeing numbers is a giveaway that it’s a quantitative <span>observation. Quantitative is where you deal with numbers.</span>

Answer:

An atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

For example,

Al atom has 13 protons and 13 electrons. The number of positive and negative charge is equal thus it will be neutral atom.

While the atom of Al which have 13 proton and 10 electron is not neutral. The positive charge is greater than negative by 3. Which means 3 electrons are lose by Al atom and form cation "Al⁺³".

Thus an atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)

What substance is reduced in the reaction 2Fe 2+ + CI2 = 2Fe 3+ + 2CI- ?

atroni [7]

Answer:

$Cl_{2}$ is reduced in the reaction

Explanation:

The given reaction is

$2Fe^{2+}+Cl_{2} \to 2Fe^{3+}+2Cl^{-}$

The oxidation number of $Fe$ is changed from $+2\, \to \, +3$

$Fe^{2+} \to Fe^{3+}+e^{-}$

And The oxidation number of $Cl$ is changed from $0\, \to \, -1$

$Cl_{2}^{0} + 2e^{-} \to 2Cl^{-}$

Hence, $Fe^{2+}$ is oxidized and $Cl_{2}$ is reduced

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen gas. Each molecule of glucose essentially “stores” up to 38 molecules of ATP which can be broken down and used during other cellular reactions.
