Answer:

            No, in science their meanings are not the same as their everyday meanings.

Explanation:

                   In Science, Precision and Accuracy are defined as,

Accuracy:

               Accuracy is the value which is closest to the known or standard value.

Precision:

                While, Precision is the value of closeness of two measured values to each other.

Example:

             Let suppose in Chemistry Lab you weight an object as 50 g. While the actual weight of that object is 30 g. It means your reading is not accurate.

             On second measurement you find that the object weight is 31 g. This time your reading is not precise.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

1= Magnesium

2 = Option 3 =  1s² 2s² 2p⁶

Explanation:

An electrically neutral atom consist of equal number of protons and electrons.

The answer for 1st q is magnesium because the electronic configuration showed twelve number of electrons. The atomic number of magnesium is twelve that's why this configuration is of Mg.

Mg₁₂ =  1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

The second answer is option three because has atomic number ten and third electronic configuration have ten electrons.

Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

It is stable electronic configuration. Neon is inert because of this electronic configuration. The outer most shell is completely filled.

How many grams of sucrose (c12h22o11) are in 1.55 l of 0.758 m sucrose solution? express your answer in grams to three significa
satela [25.4K]
The molecular formula of sucrose is - C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁
molecular mass of sucrose - 342 g/mol
molarity of sucrose solution is 0.758 M
In 1 L solution the number of sucrose moles are - 0.758 mol
Therefore in 1.55 L solution, sucrose moles are - 0.758 mol/L x 1.55 L
                                                                           = 1.17 mol
The mass of 1.17 mol of sucrose is - 1.17 mol x 342 g/mol = 4.00 x 10² g

Why do the pH scale generally range from 0 to 14 in aqueous solution?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

In aqueous solution the pH scale varies from 0 to 14, which indicates this concentration of hydrogen. Solutions with pH less than 7 are acidic (the value of the exponent of the concentration is higher, because there are more ions in the solution) and alkaline (basic) those with a pH higher than 7. If the solvent is pure water, the pH = 7 indicates neutrality of the solution

Explanation:

PH is a measure of how acidic or basic a liquid is. Specifically, from a dissolution. The acidity of a solution is essentially due to the concentration of hydrogen ions dissolved in it. In reality, the ions are not found alone, but are in the form of hydronium ions consisting of one oxygen molecule and three positively charged hydrogen. PH precisely measures this concentration. And to do it, we can use simple and very visual methods.
