The fact that the student used different amount of water (another independent variable) is wrong with the experimental design
WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF AN EXPERIMENT?
- An experiment aims at solving a scientific problem or answering a scientific question. An experiment should contain a variable being changed called INDEPENDENT VARIABLE and a variable being measured called DEPENDENT VARIABLE.
- In an ideal experiment, only one independent variable should be used while every other variable should be kept constant. This is done so as not to affect the result of the experiment.
In the experiment conducted by the student in this question, two independent variables were used i.e. the different amount of water and the different temperatures. This is what is wrong about the experimental design.
- In a nutshell, the fact that two independent variables were used by the student is what is wrong about the experimental design.

Answer:
At 0.58 L of 0.540 M NaOH solution contain 12.5 g NaOH.
Explanation:
Given data:
At volume = ?
Mass of NaOH = 12.5 g
Molarity of solution = 0.540 M
Solution:
First of all we will calculate the number of moles of sodium hydroxide.
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 12.5 g / 40 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.3125 mol
Volume of NaOH:
Molarity = number of moles / volume in L
Now we will put the values.
0.540 M = 0.3125 mol / volume in L
volume in L = 0.3125 mol / 0.540 mol/L
volume in L = 0.58 L
The original mass of krypton 81 that is present in the ice is 6.70 grams.
<h3>How do we calculate original mass?</h3>
Original mass of any substance will be calculated as below for the decomposition reaction is:
N = N₀(1/2)ⁿ, where
N = remaining mass of krypton-81 = 1.675g
N₀ = original mass of krypton-81 = ?
n will be calculated as:
n = T/t, where
T = total time period = 458,000 years
t = half life time = 229,000 years
n = 458,000/229,000 = 2
Now putting all these values on the above equation, we get
N₀ = 1.675 / (1/2)²
N₀ = 6.70 g
Hence required mass is 6.70 g.
