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%

Explain why photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the “real circle of life”
BabaBlast [244]

Explanation:Photosynthesis is important because the earth and all of the creatures in the sea and land need the plants to be able to feed themselves with the help of the sun and with cellular respiration, those plants are able to take in the carbon dioxide that we give and make into oxygen with we need. there fore without them we would not be able to exist.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of bismuth oxide ion to bismuth ion in basic aqueous solution. Be sure to add p
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

3H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+6OH^-

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the required half-reaction, we start by setting it up from bismuth (V) oxide ion to bismuth (III) ion:

BiO_3^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}

Thus, next realize that the oxidation state of Bi in BiO3^- is 5+ because oxygen is 2- (-2*3+x=-1;x=-1+6;x=+5), so we obtain:

(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}

Thereafter, we realize three water molecules are needed on the right in order to balance the oxygens and consequently 6 hydrogen atoms on the left to balance hydrogen:

6H^++(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+3H_2O

Now, since the balance is is basic media, we add six molecules of hydroxide ions in order to produce water with the hydrogen ones:

6OH^-+6H^++(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+3H_2O+6OH^-\\\\6H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+3H_2O+6OH^-\\\\6H_2O-3H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+6OH^-

Then, we accommodate the waters to obtain:

3H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+6OH^-

Best regards!

fredd [130]

LMBO, for science.

Answer:

<em>The increase in kinetic energy leads to leakage of water from the syringe. When the outside temperature is more than the liquid temperature, say the syringe is out in sunshine, then the liquid becomes slightly warmer.</em>
