A buret was improperly read to 1 decimal place giving a reading of 27.2 mL. If the actual volume is 27.26 mL, what is the percen

Using the significant figure it would be 27.3

The high polarity of the oxygen-carbon bond in alcohols is what allows them to be soluble in water.

Anna11 [10]

This is false. An alcohol does indeed have a polar C-O single bond, but what we should really be focusing on is the extraordinarily polar O-H single bond. When oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen is bound to a hydrogen atom, there is a small (but not negligible) charge separation, where the eletronegative N, O, or F has a partial negative charge, and the H has a partial positive charge. Water has two O-H single bonds in it (structure is H-O-H). The partially negative charge on the O of the water molecule (specifically around the lone pair) can become attracted either a neighboring water molecule's partially positive H atom, or an alcohol's partially positive H atom. This is weak (and partially covalent) attraction is called a hydrogen bond. This is stronger than a typical dipole-dipole attraction (as would be seen between neighboring C-O single bonds), and much stronger than dispersion forces (between any two atoms). When the solvent (water) and the solute (the alcohol) both exhibit similar intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding being the most important in this case), they can mix completely in all proportions (i.e. they are miscible) in water.

(plz anwser all questions 15 points)

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

1. B, D,

2.A, F

Explanation:

1. According to the law of conservation of mass, In a course of chemical reaction, matter can neither be created nor destroyed but can be changed from one form to another. This means the amount of matter at the begining and ending of a reaction must be thesame.

2. Chemical reaction is not easily reversible. when gas is produced, provided the reaction system is an open system, the gas cannot be recovered and the reactants cannot be recovered from the products. likewise color change are attributed to chemical reaction

Two 10g blocks, one of copper and one of iron, were heated from 300 K to 400K (a temperature difference of 100 K).

12345 [234]

1) 385 J

2) 450 J

Explanation:

1)

The amount of energy that must be absorbed by a certain substance in order to increase its temperature by $\Delta T$ is given by the equation:

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the increase in temperature of the substance

For the block of copper in this problem, we have:

m = 10 g is the mass

$C=0.385 J/gK$ is the specific heat capacity of copper

$\Delta T=400-300 = 100 K$ is the change in temperature

So, the energy absorbed by the block of copper is

$Q=(10)(0.385)(100)=385 J$

2)

Similarly for the block of iron, the energy absorbed by the iron is given by

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the block of iron

C is its specific heat capacity of iron

$\Delta T$ is the increase in temperature of the block

Here we have:

m = 10 g is the mass of the block

$C=0.450 J/gK$ is the specific heat capacity of iron

$\Delta T=400-300 = 100 K$ is the change in temperature

So, the energy absorbed by the block of iron is

$Q=(10)(0.450)(100)=450 J$

How does an underwater earthquake cause a tsunami? I need this for an assignment, if you could send me some links or a thoroughl

mars1129 [50]

An earthquake happens when tectonic plates move against each other. A oceanic and a continental tectonic plates might move against each other. When that happens water is pushed upwards and it creates ripples that then move towards land. It's like throwing a rock in water but a lot bigger. I can't post external links on Brainly but you can find more information about tsunami's on Google
