Answer:

1. Beaker and Flask: These two volumetric devices are used to make coarse measurements of volume. These devices have graduated volume measurements marked on the side if the beaker and flask. The beaker and flask have a 5% accuracy.

2. Graduated Cylinder: More accurate than beakers and flask, with a 1% accuracy. Graduated cylinder are transparent with finely divided graduations. Their size vary from 5mL to 200mL.

3. Burets: These are cylindrical glassware with a valve at the bottom (commonly called a “stopcock”). They also have graduations on the side for accurate reading, and they have a 0.01mL accuracy.

4. Pipets: 12-24 inches long slender tubes, that measure predetermined volume. Mohr pipets are volumetric glassware pipets with graduations used to measure odd or fractional volumes to be provided. They have a 0.02mL accuracy. There are three types of pipets: air-displacements; positive-displacement; and the dispenser pipet.

How many grams are in a sample of 0.55 mol of K?

Katyanochek1 [597]

The equation you use here is
mass =moles x Mr

So:
Moles of K - 0.55mol
Mr of K - 39.1

Mass= 0.55x39.1 =21.505g

7. Write a formula for each of the following:

sergeinik [125]

Answer : The formula for each of the following is:

(a) $C_{22}H_{46}$

(b) $C_{17}H_{34}$

(c) $C_{13}H_{24}$

Explanation :

Alkanes are hydrocarbon in which the carbon atoms are connected with single covalent bonds.

The general formula of alkanes is $C_n H_{2n+2}$ where n is the number of the carbon atoms present in a molecule of alkane.

Alkenes are hydrocarbon in which the carbon atoms are connected with double covalent bonds.

The general formula of alkenes is $C_n H_{2n}$ where n is the number of the carbon atoms present in a molecule of alkene.

Alkynes are hydrocarbon in which the carbon atoms are connected with triple covalent bonds.

The general formula of alkynes is $C_n H_{2n-2}$ where n is the number of the carbon atoms present in a molecule of alkyne.

(a) An alkane with 22 carbon atoms

Putting n = 22 in the general formula of alkane, we get the formula of alkane as, $C_{22}H_{2(22)+2}$ or $C_{22}H_{46}$

(b) An alkene with 17 carbon atoms

Putting n = 17 in the general formula of alkene, we get the formula of alkene as, $C_{17}H_{2(17)}$ or $C_{17}H_{34}$

(c) An alkyne with 13 carbon atoms

Putting n = 13 in the general formula of alkyne, we get the formula of alkyne as, $C_{13}H_{2(13)-2}$ or $C_{13}H_{24}$

A 6.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2600 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the sphere is immersed in a liqui

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of solid sphere(m) = 6.1 kg

Density of the metal = 2600 kg/m³

Thus volume of the liquid :

$Volume(V)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Density (\rho)}$

Volume of the sphere = 6.1 kg/2600 kg/m³ = 0.002346 m³

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of sphere (Archimedes' principle)

Volume displaced = 0.002346 m³

Buoyant force = $\rho\times gV$

Where

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume displaced

The free body diagram of the sphere is shown in image.

According to image:

$mg=\rho\times gV+T$

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 ms⁻²

Tension force = 26 N

Applying in the equation to find the density of the liquid as:

$6.1\times 9.81=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346+26$

$33.841=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346$

$\rho=\frac{33.841}{9.81\times 0.002346}$

$\rho=1470.43 kgm^3$

<u>Thus, the density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³</u>
