Answer:

56.8cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Measured volume = 54.5cm³

Percentage error  = 4.25%

Unknown:

Actual volume of the cylinder = ?

Solution:

The percentage error shows the amount of error introduced into a measurement.

We need to find out this amount of error from the data given.

   Error = Percentage error x measured volume

                       Error = \frac{4.25}{100} x 54.5  = ±2.32cm³

Since the error introduced = 2.32cm³

  Actual volume of cylinder = measured volume ± Error

  Since the percentage error quoted as higher 4.25%;

 Actual volume  = 54.5cm³ + 2.32cm³ = 56.8cm³

Using VSEPR theory which of the following would be the correct shape for nitrogen trifluoride?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

In NF3, the nitrogen atom is sp3 hybridized. Now we must remember that according to the VSEPR theory, the number of electron pairs in the valence shell of the central atom in a molecule determines its shape.

Here, the nitrogen atom is the central atom and its outermost shell is surrounded by four electron pairs - one lone pair and three bond pairs. This means that it has a tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

However, due to the lone pair, the three fluorine atoms are arranged in a  trigonal pyramidal geometry. Hence the correct shape of the molecule is trigonal pyramidal.

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 3 types of plastids :-

1) Chloroplasts:- The green plastids which contain chlorophyll pigments for photosynthesis.

2) Chromoplasts:-The coloured plastids for pigment synthesis and storage.

3) Leucoplasts:- The colourless plastids for monoterpene synthesis found in non- photosynthetic parts of the plants.

They are of three types:-  

a) Amyloplasts- stores starch.

b) Proteinoplasts-  stores proteins.

c) Elaioplasts- stores fats and oils.

Nistu is cooking rice in a pot. When she leaves the pot on the stove for a while, the temperature of the rice increases. What ha
Mila [183]

Answer:

Their average kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of the rice molecules increases as the pot is left on the cooking stove.

Heat is transferred to the pot by conduction from the heat source. The heat is then transferred to the rice in the cooking pot by convection.

  • As the water in the pot heats up.
  • The rice gains thermal energy.
  • This causes the molecules of the rice particles to start vibrating.
  • As the molecules vibrate about their fixed position, their thermal energy continues to increase.
  • Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed by the rice increases with time and this actually cooks the food.
