Answer:

a) Measurements have a good precision.

Explanation:

Accuracy is the proximity of the data to the value considered as real, in this situation we do not know the real value and we do not know if the data is accurate or not, so we can discard options b and d.

Now, precision is the proximity of the data obtained among themselves and that is what we can observe, so the appropriate answer is the option a.

A mole of oxygen and a mole of hydrogen (at STP) have all of the following in common EXCEPT
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Root mean squared velocity is different.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we have a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at STP, which is defined as a condition whereas T = 298 K and P = 1 atm, we can infer that these gases have the same temperature, pressure, volume and moles but a different root mean squared velocity according to the following formula:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{MM} }

Since they both have a different molar mass (MM), nitrogen (28.02 g/mol) and oxygen (32.02 g/mol), thus we infer that nitrogen would have a higher root mean squared velocity as its molar mass is less than that of oxygen.

Best regards!

What is the mass in grams of BaCl2 that is needed to prepare 200 mL of a 0.500 M solution
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

= 20.82 g of BaCl2

Explanation:

Given,

Volume = 200 mL

Molarity = 0.500 M

Therefore;

Moles = molarity × volume

          = 0.2 L × 0.5 M

          = 0.1 mole

But; molar mass of BaCl2 is 208.236 g/mole

Therefore; 0.1 mole of BaCl2 will be equivalent to;

  = 208.236 g/mol x 0.1 mol

  = 20.82 g

Therefore, the mass of BaCl2 in grams required is 20.82 g

When 5.58g H2 react by the following balanced equation, 32.8g H2O are formed. What is the percent yield of the reaction? 2H2(g)+
8090 [49]

Answer:

D) 65.7%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2H2(g)+O2(g)⟶2H2O(l)

<em>2 moles of hydrogen produce 2 moles of water assuming an excess of oxygen.</em>

<em />

To find percent yield of the reaction we need to find theoretical yield (The yield assuming all hydrogen reacts producing water). With theoretical yield and actual yield (32.8g H₂O) we can determine percent yield as 100 times the ratio between actual yield and theoretical yield.

<em>Theoretical yield:</em>

Moles of 5.58g H₂:

5.58g H₂ ₓ (1 mol / 2.016g) = 2.768 moles H₂

As 2 moles of H₂ produce 2 moles of H₂O, if all hydrogen reacts will produce 2.768 moles H₂O. In grams:

2.768 moles H₂O ₓ (18.015g / mol) =

49.86g H₂O is theoretical yield

<em>Percent yield:</em>

Percent yield = Actual yield / Theoretical yield ₓ 100

32.8g H₂O / 49.86g ₓ 100 =

65.7% is percent yield of the reaction

<h3>D) 65.7% </h3>

A gas cylinder is filled with pure ammonia. Which term or terms could be used to describe the contents of this gas cylinder?.
IRISSAK [1]

The gas cylinder only contains pure ammonia and so it is a pure chemical substance and a compound.

What is a compound?

compound refers to a chemical substance that is made up of several similar molecules containing elements from multiple elements. Most noteworthy, the bounding of these molecules takes place by chemical bonds. A chemical formula gives an indication of the number of atoms of each element existing in a compound molecule.
