Consider the following operations on the number 7.02 times 10^-2. Without using a calculator, decide which would give a signific

antly smaller value than 7.02 times 10^-2, which would give a significantly larger value, or which would give essentially the same value.
a. 7.02 times 10^-2 + 6.10 times 1^5
b. 7.02 times 10^-2 -6.10 times 10^5
c. 7.02 times 10^2 times 6.10 times 10^5
d. 7.02 times 10^-2 + 6.10 times 10^5

Answer: (a). Significantly Larger value

(b). Significantly Smaller value

(c). Significantly Larger value

(d). Significantly Smaller value

Explanation:

This is quite a dicey  question to analyze, let us not get too carried away with the simplicity of the mathematical signs involved.

Given that 7.02 × 10⁻² is the number to be compared with.

(a).  7.02 × 10⁻² + 6.10 × 10⁵

from this, we can see a very large number being added to the base number involved, although the base number is carrying a negative power, it does not affect the other greatly.

ANS: the sum would give a significantly larger value

(b). 7.02 × 10⁻² - 6.10 × 10⁵

Here, we can see a very large number subtracted from the base number having a negative power.

the subtraction of this numbers gives a Significantly smaller value than the base number i.e. 7.02 × 10⁻²

ANS: Significantly smaller value

(c). 7.02 × 10⁻² × 6.10 × 10⁵

we would solve this from our basic knowledge of indices

where ⇒ (10ᵃ × 10ᵇ = 10ᵃ⁺ᵇ)

we have,

7.02 × 10⁻² × 6.10 × 10⁵ = (7.02 × 6.10) × 10⁻²⁺⁵ = (7.02 × 6.10) × 10³

this final value (multiplication value) gives a Significantly larger value.

ANS: Significantly larger value

(d). 7.02 × 10⁻² ÷ 6.10 × 10⁵

Also, we apply the indices rule for Division

where ⇒ (10ᵃ ÷ 10ᵇ = 10ᵃ⁻ᵇ)

i.e. 7.02 × 10⁻² ÷ 6.10 × 10⁵ = (7.02 × 6.10) × 10⁻²⁻⁺⁵ = (7.02 × 6.10) × 10⁻⁷

this final value gives a Significantly Smaller value

ANS: Significantly Smaller value

cheers i hope this helps.

Which of the following statements is TRUE? Question 5 options: The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same
amm1812

Answer:

All of the above are true

Explanation:

a) The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same and can be used to identify the element: It's true since the emission spectrum for each element is unique. It has the same bright lines at the same wavelength. This feature is used to identify elements. For example, the study of the emission spectra of light arriving from stars allow us to identify the elements presents in the star because the light contains the emission spectra of those elements.

b)The uncertainty principle states that we can never know both the exact location and speed of an electron:  It is true since the velocity of an electron is related to its wave nature, while its position is related to its particle nature and we cannot simultaneously measure electron's position and velocity with precision.

c) An orbital is the volume in which we are most likely to find an electron: An orbital is a probability distribution map that is used to decribe the likely position of an electron in an atom.

What is the molality of a solution made by dissolving 15.20 g of i2 in 1.33 mol of diethyl ether, (ch3ch2)2o?
Paraphin [41]
The  molarity   of solution  made  by  dissolving  15.20g  of i2  in 1.33 mol  of diethyl ether (CH3CH2)2O  is    =0.6M

   calculation

molarity  =moles of solute/  Kg of the  solvent

mole  of the solute  (i2)  =  mass /molar mass
the molar mass of i2 = 126.9 x2 = 253.8 g/mol

moles is therefore=  15.2 g/253.8 g/mol  =  0.06  moles


calculate the Kg of solvent  (CH3CH2)2O
mass =  moles  x  molar mass
molar mass  of  (CH3CH2)2O= 74 g/mol

mass  is therefore = 1.33 moles  x  74 g/mol =  98.42 grams
in Kg = 98.42 /1000 =0.09842  Kg

molarity  is therefore = 0.06/0.09842 = 0.6 M

The entropy change for a real, irreversible process is equal to:______.
taurus [48]

Answer:

The entropy change for a real, irreversible process is equal to <u>zero.</u>

The correct option is<u> 'c'.</u>

Explanation:

<u>Lets look around all the given options -:</u>

(a)  the entropy change for a theoretical reversible process with the same initial and final states , since the entropy change is equal and opposite in reversible process , thus this option in not correct.

(b) equal to the entropy change for the same process performed reversibly ONLY if the process can be reversed at all. Since , the change is same as well as opposite too . Therefore , this statement is also not true .

(c) zero. This option is true because We generate more entropy in an irreversible process. Because no heat moves into or out of the surroundings during the procedure, the entropy change of the surroundings is zero.

(d) impossible to tell. This option is invalid , thus incorrect .

<u>Hence , the correct option is 'c' that is zero.</u>
