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 concentration in parts per million in a solution that contains .008 grams of o2 dissolved in 1000 grams of water
julia-pushkina [17]
Ppm = mass of solute mg / mass of solvent kg

0.008 * 1000 =  8.0 mg ( solute )

1000 / 1000 = 1.0 kg (solvent )

ppm = 8 / 1

= 8.0 ppm

hope this helps!

If iodine-131 has a half-life of 8 days, how much of a 64.0 g sample of iodine-131 will remain after 32 day?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

4 g OF IODINE-131 WILL REMAIN AFTER 32 DAYS.

Explanation:

Half life (t1/2) = 8 days

Original mass (No) = 64 g

Elapsed time (t) = 32 days

Mass remaining (Nt) = ?

Using the half life equation we can obtain the mass remaining (Nt)

Nt = No (1/2) ^t/t1/2

Substituting the values, we have;

Nt = 64 * ( 1/2 ) ^32/8

Nt = 64 * (1/2) ^4

Nt = 64 * 0.0625

Nt = 4 g

So therefore, 4 g of the iodine-131 sample will remain after 32 days with its half life of 8 days.

A metal ion Mⁿ⁺ has a single electron. The highest energy line in its emission spectrum occurs at a frequency of 2.961 x 10¹⁶ Hz
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

z≅3

Atomic number is 3, So ion is Lithium ion (Li^+)

Explanation:

First of all

v=f*λ

In our case v=c

c=f*λ

λ=c/f

where:

c is the speed of light

f is the frequency

\lambda=\frac{3*10^8}{2.961*10^{16}}\\ \lambda=1.01317*10^{-8} m

Using Rydberg's Formula:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R*z^2*(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2})

Where:

R is Rydberg constant=1.097*10^7

z is atomic Number

For highest Energy:

n_1=1

n_2=∞

\frac{1}{1.01317*10^{-8}}=1.097*10^{7}*z^2*(\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{\inf})\\z^2=8.99\\z=2.99

z≅3

Atomic number is 3, So ion is Lithium ion (Li^+)
