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>

his is the chemical formula for epinephrine (the main ingredient in adrenaline): C9H13O3N A biochemist has determined by measure
Len [333]

Answer:

3.67 moles of N

Explanation:

The epinephrine's chemical formula is: C₉H₁₃O₃N

We were told that a chemist found that in a mesaure of epinephrine, he found 33 moles of C

We must know that 9 moles of C are in 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N so, let's make a rule of three:

If 9 moles of C are found in 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N

Therefore 33 moles of C must be found in (33 .1) / 9 = 3.67 moles of C₉H₁₃O₃N

There is a second rule of three, then.

In 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N we have 1 mol of N

Then, 3.67 moles C₉H₁₃O₃N must have (3.67 . 1) / 1 = 3.67 moles of N

Remember 1 mol of C₉H₁₃O₃N has 9 moles of C, 13 moles of H, 3 moles of O and 1 mol of N

What is the difference between a physical and chemical change?
Zanzabum
In a physical change the appearance or form of the matter changes but the kind of matter in the substance does not. However in a chemical change, the kind of matter changes and at least one new substance with new properties is formed. The distinction between physical and chemical change is not clear cut.
