Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: it should be as simple and logical as possible.

Explanation: when producing a scientific theory, one shouldn't introduce stretched realities. For example, if I come back home and find the fridge open, it's very unlikely that a pink elephant came into my house while I was gone and opened it, I must have left it open when I left.

15.0 g of Fe and 25.0 g of sand are added to 250.0 g of water. a. Determine the percent mass of Fe, sand, and water in the mixtu
lana [24]

Answer:

A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand  = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 86.205%

B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand

Explanation:

A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:

Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g

percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%

B. Flow chart of separation procedure

(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.

A scientist prepared an aqueous solution of a 0.45 M weak acid. The pH of the solution was 2.72. What is the percentage ionizati
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

0.42%

Explanation:

<em>∵ pH = - log[H⁺].</em>

2.72 = - log[H⁺]

∴ [H⁺] = 1.905 x 10⁻³.

<em>∵ [H⁺] = √Ka.C</em>

∴ [H⁺]² = Ka.C

∴ ka = [H⁺]²/C = (1.905 x 10⁻³)²/(0.45) = 8.068 x 10⁻⁶.

<em>∵ Ka = α²C.</em>

Where, α is the degree of dissociation.

<em>∴ α = √(Ka/C) </em>= √(8.065 x 10⁻⁶/0.45) = <em>4.234 x 10⁻³.</em>

<em>∴ percentage ionization of the acid = α x 100</em> = (4.233 x 10⁻³)(100) = <em>0.4233% ≅ 0.42%.</em>

What is the [H+] of a solution with a pH of 3? Use a scientific calculator.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

1 x 10⁻³.

Explanation:

∵ pH = - log[H⁺]

3 = - log[H⁺].

log[H⁺] = -3.

∴ [H⁺] = 1 x 10⁻³.
