What is the significance of a standard system of measurement

Chemistry
1 answer:
GenaCL600 [577]3 years ago

Units of measurement are the terms that we use to describe the size of something. You probably know that units include things like seconds, kilograms, meters, and so forth.

Without standard units of measurement, scientists would have a huge problem understanding what other scientists were saying. After all, if I were to refer to a meter as "the length of my leg" and another scientists were to refer to it as "the length of a Saint Bernard dog", we'd have a lot of trouble when it came to do actual science. To avoid this problem, the SI system of units gives us a convenient and, more importantly, standard set of units that we can agree on.

Calculate the number of moles in the following: 2.8 X 10^24 atoms of Cl2
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.65 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question

N = 2.8 × 10²⁴ atoms of Cl2

So we have

n =  \frac{2.8 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23}  }  \\  = 4.65116279069...

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.65 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

A gas has a density of 1.57 g/L at 40.0 °C and 2.00 atm of pressure. What is the identity of the gas?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Neon

Explanation:

Step 1: Given and required data

  • Density of the gas (ρ): 1.57 g/L
  • Temperature (T): 40.0°C
  • Pressure (P): 2.00 atm
  • Ideal gas constant (R): 0.08206 atm.L/mol.K

Step 2: Convert T to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15 = 40.0 + 273.15 = 313.2 K

Step 3: Calculate the molar mass of the gas (M)

For an ideal gas, we will use the following expression.

ρ = P × M/R × T

M = ρ × R × T/P

M = 1.57 g/L × 0.08206 atm.L/mol.K × 313.2 K/2.00 atm

M = 20.17 g/mol

The gas with a molar mass of 20.17 g/mol is Neon.

Hey everyone!! Can someone please explain the periodic table of elements and whoever wants to talk I can talk to!!
Burka [1]

Answer:

The periodic table of elements arranges all of the known chemical elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass. ... For instance, all the group 18 elements are inert gases.
