The answer is D.

A models neither accuracy or precision

B models precision and accuracy

C models precision but not accuracy

D models accuracy but not precision: this is because one of the darts is on the target which is accurate and the others aren't which isn't precision.

Answer:

Explanation:

Measurements that are close to a standard measured value is accurate. But when measured values are close to each other they are precise. For example, if one measures the weight of 1 kg of rice as 945 g and another person measure it as 955 g, then the second person’s ,measurement is more accurate. Now if the first person measured the same bag of rice thrice and got values 945 g, 946 g and 947g whereas the second person got values 955g, 950 g and 940 g, in such a case the first person’s measured value is more precise.

Calculate the vapor pressure of spherical water droplets of radius (a) 17 nm and (b) 2.0 μm surrounded by water vapor at 298 K.

Montano1993 [528]

Explanation:

Relation between pressure of water and its droplet is as follows.

$ln (\frac{p}{p_{o}}) = \frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}$

where, p = pressure of droplet

$p_{o}$ = water pressure in given temperature

$\gamma$ = $7.99 \times 10^{-3}$

M = Molecular Weight in Kg/Mol (0.018 for water)

r = radius in meters

$\rho$ = density of water in $Kg/m^{3}$ (1000 $kg/m^{3}$ )

R = ideal gas constant (8.31)

T = temperature in Kelvin

(a) We will calculate the value of p as follows.

p = $e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}$

= $e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{1.7 \times 10^{-8} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2$

= 26.8 torr

(b) And, vapor pressure of spherical water droplets of radius 2.0 $\mu m$ or $2 \times 10^{-6} m$

p = $e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}$

= $e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{2 \times 10^{-6} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2$

= 25.2 torr

How many grams are in 0.220 mol of Ne?

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Mass = 4.44 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Ne = 0.220 mol

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of Ne = 20.2 g/mol

by putting values,

0.220 mol = mass/ 20.2 g/mol

Mass = 0.220 mol × 20.2 g/mol

Mass = 4.44 g

The average osmotic pressure of ocean water is 28 atm corresponding to a concentration of 0.50m solutes. what is the approximate

RideAnS [48]

Answer : 0.125 M

Explanation : The definition of osmotic pressure is "the pressure can be applied on a pure solvent to prevent it passing into a given solution by osmosis".

So according to this definition, osmotic pressure can be called as directly proportional to the concentration of the solution and hence the pressure can also be directly proportional to the concentration.

Hence, if pressure is getting decreased from 28 to 7 it means it got decreased by 4 times;
28 / 7 = 4 that means;

So the concentration will be also decreased by 4 times so, 0.50 / 4 = 0.125 M
