Answer:

<h3>The answer is 1.63 %</h3>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual mass = 9.80 g

error = 9.80 - 9.64 = 0.16

We have

p(\%) =  \frac{0.16}{9.80}  \times 100 \\  = 1.632653061...

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.63 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the molarity of a solution of 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution?
jekas [21]

Answer:

1.72 M

Explanation:

Molarity is the molar concentration of a solution. It can be calculated using the formula a follows:

Molarity = number of moles (n? ÷ volume (V)

According to the information provided in this question, the solution has 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution.

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of MgCl2 = 24 + 35.5(2)

= 24 + 71

= 95g/mol

mole = 58.7g ÷ 95g/mol

mole = 0.618mol

Volume of solution = 359ml = 359/1000 = 0.359L

Molarity = 0.618mol ÷ 0.359L

Molarity = 1.72 M

1. Ar, Cl, Al, Mg, Na

2. O, S, Se, Te, Po

Explanation:

Just remember the trends. From left to right, atomic radius decreases because proton increases and pulls electrons closer. From top to bottom, atomic radius increases because there are more electron shells.
