Bud N. Chemist must determine the density of a mineral sample. His four trials yield densities of 4.77 g/cm3 , 4.67 g/cm3 , 4.69

g/cm3 , and 4.81 g/cm3 . Independent studies found the correct density to be 4.75 g/cm3 . Which of the following statements represents the best analysis of the data? A) Bud's results have much greater accuracy than precison B) Bud's results have much greater precision than accuracy C) Bud's results have high accuracy and high precision D) Bud's results have low accuracy and low precision E) Bud's equipment is faulty

Answer:

A

Explanation:

PRECISION AND ACCURACY ARE TERMS THAT ARE USED TO INDICATE THE QUALITY OF A GIVEN SET OF STATISTICAL OBSERVATIONS.

WHILE PRECISION TALKS ABOUT THE LEVEL OF AGREEMENT AMONGST THE SAME SET OF DATA OBSERVATIONS, ACCURACY TALKS ABOUT HOW FAR OR HOW CLOSE THE TRUE VALUE IS TO THE CALCULATED VALUE. TAKING AN AVERAGE OF ALL THE VALUES, IT STANDS AT 4.735 WHICH IS QUITE CLOSE TO THE TRUE VALUE OF 4.75

NOW, LOOKING AT THE SPREAD OF THE VALUES IN THE OBSERVATION, WE CAN SEE THAT THESE VALUES ARE QUITE NOT CLOSE TO EACH OTHER. HENCE, WE CAN CONCLUDE THAT ALTHOUGH HIS OBSERVATIONS ARE QUITE QUITE ACCURATE BASED ON THE OVERALL AVERAGE, WE CAN CONFIDENTLY POSIT THAT HIS VALUES HAVE A LOW LEVEL OF PRECISION

How many molecules of ascorbic acid(vitaminC,<br> C6H8 O6 )are in a 500 mg<br> tablet?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

1.71 × 10²¹ molecules

Explanation:

1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams. The mass in grams corresponding to 500 mg is:

500 mg × (1 g / 1000 mg) = 0.500 g

The molar mass of ascorbic acid is 176.12 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 0.500 grams of ascorbic acid are:

0.500 g × (1 mol/ 176.12 g) = 0.00284 mol

In 1 mole of ascorbic acid, there are 6.02 × 10²³ molecules of ascorbic acid (Avogadro's number). The molecules in 0.00284 moles are:

0.00284 mol × (6.02 × 10²³ molecules/ 1 mol) = 1.71 × 10²¹ molecule

What is the ph of a solution that results from mixing 25 ml of 0.15 M hcl to 25 ml of 0.52 m nh3?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

7.00

Explanation:

When the solutions are mixed, the HCl dissociates to form the ions H+ and Cl-. The ion H+ will react with the NH3 to form NH4+. The stoichiometry for this is 1 mol of HCl to 1 mol of H+ to 1 mol of Cl-, and 1 mol of H+ to 1 mol of NH3 to 1 mol of NH4+.

First, let's find the number of moles of each one of them, multiplying the concentration by the volume:

nH+ = 0.15 M * 25 mL = 3.75 mmol

nNH3 = 0.52 M * 25 mL = 13 mmol

So, all the H+ is consumed, and the neutralization is completed, thus pH will be the pH of the solvent (water), pH = 7.00.

A certain shade of blue has a frequency of 7.02 × 1014 Hz. What is the energy of exactly one photon of this light?
ruslelena [56]
 <span>The energy (E) per photon is expressed by Planck's equation: E = hf, where f is 
the frequency and h is Planck's constant, experimentally determined to be 
6.625 * 10**-34 joule-seconds. So to find E, we multiply h by the frequency 
and obtain E = hf = (6.625 * 10**-34)(7.0 * 10**14) = 46.375 * 10**-20 joule 
or in standard notation, E = 4.6375 * 10**-19 joule per photon. 

Hope this answers your question.Sorry if I calculated wrong.</span>
