Significant figures communicates the level of precision in measurements.

Answer:

Significant figures are an indicator of the certainty in measurements

Significant figures communicate the level of precision in measurements

Explanation:

As the number of significant figures increases the precision of measurement increases hence a number with 3 significant figures is more precise than a number with 2 significant figures. Also the certainty of measurement increases with the increase in the number of significant figures. A number with 4 significant figures is more certain than a number with 2 significant figures.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction producing Cu(NO₃) is given below:

Cu(s)+ 4HNO₃(aq) ---> Cu(NO₃)(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of Cu(NO₃) is produced from 1 mole of copper. Therefore, 0.010 moles of Cu(NO₃) will be produced from 0.010 mole of copper.

Molar mass of copper = 64 g/mol

mass of copper = number of moles * molar mass

mass of copper = 0.01 mol * 64 g/mol = 0.64 g

Percentage by mass of copper in the 2.00 g sample = (0.64/2.00) * 100%

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

A container with a fixed volume, filled with hydrogen gas at -104°C and 71.8 K PA is heated until the pressure reaches 225.9 K P
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 532 K

Explanation:

The Gay-Lussac law describes the behavior of a gas at constant volume, by changing the pressure or temperature. When is heated, the change in pressure of the gas is directly proportional to it absolute temperature (in Kelvin or K).

We have the following initial conditions:

P1= 71.8 kPa

T1= -104ºC +273 = 169 K

If the pressure increases until reaching 225.9 kPa (P2), we can calculate the final temperature of the gas (T2) by using the Gay-Lussac derived expression:

P1 x T2 = P2 x T1

⇒T2= (P2 x T1)/P1 = (225.9 kPa x 169 K)/71.8 kPa= 531.7 K ≅ 532 K

When a substance is in the liquid state, how are the particles of that substance<br> behaving
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

In liquids, particles are quite close together and move with random motion throughout the container. Particles move rapidly in all directions but collide with each other more frequently than in gases due to shorter distances between particles. With an increase in temperature, the particles move faster as they gain kinetic energy, resulting in increased collision rates and an increased rate of diffusion.

Choose the statement below that is TRUE. A weak acid solution consists of mostly insoluble acid molecules. The term 'strong elec
lora16 [44]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A weak acid is defined as a substance which dissociates partially into a solvent. This also means that most of the molecules of a weak acid solution remain insoluble in nature.

A solution in which solute particles completely dissociate into ions in a solvent is known as a strong electrolyte.

Whereas a solution in which solute particles partially dissociate into ions is known as a weak electrolyte.

A molecular compound is a covalent compound and as like dissolves like. So, molecular compounds are not soluble in polar solvent like water.

Therefore, we can conclude that the true statement is weak acid solution consists of mostly insoluble acid molecules.
