Distinguish between accuracy and precision in measurements

Chemistry
1 answer:
nignag [31]3 years ago
7 0

The accuracy is associated with magnitude of fractional error or relative error in that measurement

the precision of a measurement is associated with least count of the measuring instrument.

precision does not mean accuracy but both are highly demanded while making measurements in physics.

How many grams do 3.6 x10^20 atoms of silicon weigh?
creativ13 [48]
First, we divide the number of atoms of silicon given in the problem above by Avogadro's number 6.6022 x10^23. This will give us the number of moles of silicon. Then, we multiply the number of moles by the molar mass of silicon. 
number of moles = (3.6 x 10^20 atoms/6.022x10^23 atoms) = 5.97x10^-4 moles
Then, multiplying by the molar mass
                  (5.97x10^-4 moles)(28.0855 g/mol) = 0.017 grams

Why is it that the decomposition of nitroglycerin can result in so
patriot [66]

Answer:

with the molecular formula C3H5(ONO2)3, has a high nitrogen content (18.5 percent) and contains sufficient oxygen atoms to oxidize the carbon and hydrogen atoms while nitrogen is being liberated, so that it is one of the most powerful explosives known.

Explanation:

NTG reduces preload via venous dilation, and achieves modest afterload reduction via arterial dilation. These effects result in decreased myocardial oxygen demand. In addition, NTG induces coronary vasodilation, thereby increasing oxygen delivery.

A 25.0 g bold made of an alloy absorbed 250 J of heat as its temperature changed from 25.0 °C to 78.0 °C. What is the specific h
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Specific heat of alloy = 0.2 j/ g.°C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Given data:

Mass of bold = 25 g

Heat absorbed = 250 J

Initial Temperature = 25°C

Final temperature = 78°C

Specific heat of alloy = ?

Solution:

Change in temperature:

ΔT = 78°C - 25°C

ΔT = 53°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

Q = m.c. ΔT

250 j = 25 g × c ×53°C

250 j = 1325 g.°C × c

250 j / 1325 g.°C = c

c = 0.2 j/ g.°C
