Chemistry

borishaifa [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Pseudoscience does not follow the scientific method, and science does.

Explanation:

A scientific investigation tries to understand the natural phenomenon and is based on the systematic approach through a scientific method whereas pseudoscience is the practice of performing scientific experiments based on personal opinions and predictions.

The pseudoscience experiments are based on the belief system which are not supported by the evidence. Therefore, the pseudoscience results are based on the co-incidences and not on the systematic approach or the scientific method.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

Balance the equation and write the reaction-quotient expression, qc. u(s) + f2(g) ----> uf6(g)
Alona [7]
The equation presented above is that of uranium reacting with fluorine forming uranium fluoride. 

The chemical reaction can be balanced by carefully studying the equation and balancing the number of atoms of each of the element in both sides of the chemical reaction. That is,
 
                  <em>         U(s) + 3F₂(g) --> UF₆(g)</em>

2 reasons why recycling aluminium is a good idea
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Recycling aluminium saves around 95% of the energy needed to make the metal from raw materials. Along with the energy savings, recycling aluminium saves around 95% of the greenhouse gas emissions compared to the 'primary' production process.

Calculate the percentage of each element in acetic acid, hc2h3o2, and glucose, c6h12o6.
My name is Ann [436]
<em>Acetic acid, HC2H3O2</em>

First, calculate for the molar mass of acetic acid as shown below.
    M = 1 + 2(12) + 3(1) + 2(16) = 60 g

Then, calculating for the percentages of each element.
<em> Hydrogen:</em>
    P1 = ((4)(1)/60)(100%) = <em>6.67%</em>

<em> Carbon:</em>
   P2 = ((2)(12)/60)(100%) = <em>40%</em>

<em>Oxygen</em>
  P3 =((2)(16) / 60)(100%) = <em>53.33%</em>

<em>Glucose, C6H12O6</em>

The molar mass of glucose is as calculated below,
   6(12) + 12(1) + 6(16) = 180

The percentages of the elements are as follow,
 <em> Hydrogen:</em>
   P1 = (12/180)(100%) = <em>6.67%</em>

<em>Carbon:</em>
  P2 = ((6)(12) / 180)(100%) = <em>40%</em>

<em>Oxygen:</em>
  P3 = ((6)(16) / 180)(100%) = <em>53.33%</em>

b. Since the empirical formula of the given substances are just the same and can be written as CH2O then, the percentages of each element composing them will just be equal.

A cup of gold colored metal beads was measured to have a mass 425 grams. By water displacement, the volume of the beads was calc
Troyanec [42]

Given parameters;

Mass of gold colored metal beads  = 425g

Volume of water displaced by beads = 48.0cm³

Unknown;

Identity of the metal = ?

Given densities;

Gold: 19.3 g/mL

Copper: 8.86 g/mL

Bronze: 9.87 g/mL

Density is an intensive property of any substance. This implies that we can use the density of any substance to identify it.

Density can be defined as the mass per unit volume of a substance. Every substance has a unique mass per volume.

 Mathematically;

                    Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}

where mass is in kg or g

           volume is in  m³ or cm³

To find the density, we must know the mass and volume.

In this problem, the volume of the gold metal beads is the same as the volume of water displaced. This is a way to measure volume of solids.

Since the volume is given in cm³, and we are comparing with choices that have units in g/mL, we simply convert the volume in cm³ to mL

                   1cm³  = 1mL³

So therefore, volume of gold colored metal is 48mL

Now input the parameters given and solve for the density;

           Density  = \frac{425g}{48mL }    = 8.85g/mL

From the given densities, we clearly see that copper is the metal since they both of similar densities.
