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

Hope this helps you

In atomic solids where the lattice points are occupied by Group 8 ( 18) atoms, the atoms are held together by __________ forces.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

London dispersion forces

Explanation:

There are different forces of attraction that helps to hold atoms or Molecules of a particular substance together. Some of the forces of attraction are ionic/ electrovalent bond, covalent bond, vander waals forces of attraction and so on.

Under the vander waals forces of attraction we have what is known as the London dispersion forces. This force of attraction is a very weak and it is commonly found in the atoms of noble gases.

The intermolecular force of attraction in which we are talking about that is london dispersion forces is formed as a result of the formation of non-polar dipoles which are not permanent.

olga nikolaevna [1]

<h3>Answer: Choice A) 0-7</h3>

Explanation:

If the pH is between 0 and 7, then we have an acid.

If the pH is between 7 and 14, then we have an alkaline base.

If pH = 7, then it's neutral.

The iodine "clock reaction" involves the following sequence of reactions occurring in a reaction mixture in a single beaker. 1.

Mars2501 [29]

C: 0.012 mol.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Start with 0.0020 moles of iodate ions ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ .

How many moles of iodine $\text{I}_2$ will be produced?

${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ converts to $\text{I}_2$ in the first reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is three times the coefficient in front of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ . In other words, each mole of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will produce three moles of $\text{I}_2$ . 0.0020 moles of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will convert to 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ .

How many moles of thiosulfate ions ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ are required?

$\text{I}_2$ reacts with ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ in the second reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is twice the coefficient in front of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ . How many moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ does each mole of $\text{I}_2$ consume? Two. 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ will be produced. As a result, $2 \times 0.0060 = 0.0120$ moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ will be needed.
