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

Chemistry
1 answer:
daser333 [38]4 years ago

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>

How many seconds are there in two 24 hour days?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

86,400 seconds in a day.

Explanation:

There are 24 hrs in a day. So there are 2460 mins in a day. ( 1hr=60 mins) So there are 246060 seconds in a day. (1 min = 60 seconds) Therefore 86,400 seconds in a day.

How does the electron configuration of elements within the same group compare? (A.) They all have their valence electrons in the
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

( B) They all have their valence electrons in the same type of subshell.

Explanation:

With each period, a new shell is added to the atom.

Further, the groups are classified based on the type of subshell the last electron enters and number of valence electrons.

For all elements of same group, the last electron enters the same type of subshell.

Say, for group 1, last electron enters s orbital and they have 1 valence elctron.

for group 17, last electron enters p orbital and they have 7 valence electrons.

(A) and (D) are wrong because, energy level of the valence electrons is determined by the principle quantum number n and l and not by the type of subshell(only l) they enter.

(C) if the valence electron enters p orbital, then the elements will be placed in the p- block.

likoan [24]

Answer: How hydroelectric plant is better over thermal power plant in creating less pollution?

Explanation:

The thermal power plant utilizes the coal as a fuel. The heat energy so produce after burning coal is used for generating electrical energy. The burning of the coal results in the production of pollutants. The carbon dioxide is also a chief pollutant of coal burning. This can pollute the air.

The hydroelectric plant is better than thermal power plant in the sense no fuel is required for this purpose the energy from water currents are used for generating electrical energy.  

So, the citizens should research about hydroelectric plant and try to know how it is efficient in providing routine energy supply and impact it exerts on the environment if used as a source of energy generation.

Two springs have different spring constants. How could you identify the spring with the greater spring constant value?
Darya [45]
The spring constant determines how far the spring will stretch for a given applied force: <span>F=kx→k=<span>Fx</span></span><span>. If we place the same mass on the two springs, which means we have placed the same force on them, the one that stretches </span>least<span> has the largest spring constant.
Hope this helps!
