Ok percent error is abs(calculated-actual)/actual(100%)

So 1.5/96 *100%

Answer:

The percentage error is 1.56 %.

Explanation:

To calculate the percentage error, we use the equation:

\%\text{ error}=\frac{|\text{Experimental value - Accepted value}|}{\text{Accepted value}}\times 100

We are given:

Experimental value of an average = 97.5

Accepted value of an average = 96  

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ error}=\frac{|97.5-96|}{96}\times 100\\\\\%\text{ error}=1.56\%

Hence, the percentage error in our calculation is 1.56 %.

Identify and label the Brønsted-Lowry acid, its conjugate base, the Brønsted-Lowry base, and its conjugate acid in each of the f
julia-pushkina [17]

Explanation:

As per Brønsted-Lowry concept of acids and bases, chemical species which donate proton are called Brønsted-Lowry acids.

The chemical species which accept proton are called Brønsted-Lowry base.

(a) HNO_3 + H_2O \rightarrow H_3O^+ + NO_3^-

HNO_3 is Bronsted lowry acid and NO_3^- is its conjugate base.

H_2O is Bronsted lowry base and H_3O^+ is its conjugate acid.

(b)

CN^- + H_2O \rightarrow HCN + OH^-

CN^- is Bronsted lowry base and HCN is its conjugate acid.

H_2O is Bronsted lowry acid and OH^- is its conjugate base.

(c)

H_2SO_4 + Cl^- \rightarrow HCl + HSO_4^-

H_2SO_4 is Bronsted lowry acid and HSO_4^- is its conjugate base.

Cl^- is Bronsted lowry base and HCl is its conjugate acid.

(d)

HSO_4^-+OH^- \rightarrow SO_4^{2-}+H_2O

HSO_4^- is Bronsted lowry acid and SO_4^{2-} is its conjugate base.

OH^- is Bronsted lowry base and H_2O is its conjugate acid.

(e)

O_{2-}+H_2O \rightarrow 2OH^-

O_{2-} is Bronsted lowry base and OH- is its conjugate acid.

H_2O is Bronsted lowry acid and OH- is its conjugate base.

Which of the following statements best explains the observation that hydrogen fluoride has the highest boiling point of all the
olasank [31]

Answer:

c. HF can participate in hydrogen bonding.

Explanation:

<u>The boiling points of substances  often reflect the strength of the </u><u>intermolecular forces</u><u> operating among the molecules.</u>

If it takes more energy to  separate molecules of HF than of the rest of the hydrogen halides because HF molecules are held  together by stronger intermolecular forces, then the boiling point of HF will be higher than  that of all the hydrogen halides.

A particularly strong  type of intermolecular attraction is called the hydrogen bond, <em>which is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction between the hydrogen atom in a polar bond</em>, such as N-H, O-H, or F-H, and an electronegative O, N, or F atom.
