1. If a student needed to calculate the density of irregularly shaped metal beads give a brief explanation of the best way to do

so with a graduated cylinder, water and a balance.2. Using the method described above, calculate the density of a quantity of copper beads. The initial volume of the graduated cylinder with water was 35 ml, the volume of the water plus the beads 40.7 ml and the mass of the beads 50.217 g. What is the density of the beads and what is the percent error.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The density of an irregular object can be determined using a graduated cylinder, water and a balance as follows.

The irregularly shaped object is weighed in a balance and its mass is recorded. The graduated cylinder is then filled with a given volume of water. This volume of water is also recorded. The irregularly shaped object is then introduced into the graduated cylinder containing the water and the change in volume of the water is recorded.

Volume of the object= change in volume of the water

Density= mass/volume

b)

If the beads weigh 50.217 g

Volume of beads = change in volume of water= 40.7 ml - 35.0ml = 5.7 ml

Density= mass/volume = 50.217 g/5.7 ml = 8.81 g/ml

Accepted value of the density of copper in g/ml = 8.94 g/ml

% error in density = |8.81-8.94|/8.94 ×100

% error in density = 1.45%

Which of the following is not a valid set of quantum numbers
ASHA 777 [7]
I believe the answer is C, n = 3, l = 3, m = 3. The magnetic quantum number, or 

<span>ml</span>, can only take values that range from <span>−l</span> to <span>+l</span>, as you can see in the table above.

For option C), the angular momentum quantum number of equal to ++2<span>, which means that <span>ml</span> can have a maximum value of </span>+2<span>. Since it is given as having a value of </span>+3**, this set of quantum numbers is not a valid one.

The other three sets are valid and can correctly describe an electron.

The data below shows the change in concentration of dinitrogen pentoxide over time, at 330 K, according to the following process
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: a) 1.7\times 10^{-4}

b) 3.4\times 10^{-4}

Explanation:

The reaction is :

2N_2O_5(g)\rightarrow 4NO_2(g)+O_2(g)

Rate = Rate of disappearance of N_2O_5 = Rate of appearance of NO_2

Rate =  -\frac{d[N_2O_5]}{2dt} = \frac{d[NO_2]}{4dt}

Rate of disappearance of N_2O_5 = \frac{\text {change in concentration}}{time} = \frac{0.100-0.066}{200-0}=1.7\times 10^{-4}

a) Rate of disappearance of N_2O_5 = -\frac{d[N_2O_5]}{2dt}

Rate of appearance of NO_2 = \frac{d[NO_2]}{4dt}

b) Rate of appearance of NO_2 =  \frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}=2\times 1.7\times 10^{-4}}=3.4\times 10^{-4}
