What does it mean when you hear science is tentative?

Chemistry
1 answer:
polet [3.4K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer/Explanation:

Tentative means that something is uncertain. So if some aspect of science is described as "tentative" it probably means that there is some evidence to support a hypothesis, but there is more work to be done to be sure about the statements being made.

You may also see these reports described as "preliminary", as they are acknowledging the work is not complete

Given the following equation: 8 Fe + S8 —> 8 FeS what mass of iron is needed to react with 5.65 mol of sulfur S8
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

2522g

Explanation:

8Fe + S8 —> 8FeS

From the question,

8moles of Fe required 1mole of S8.

Therefore, Xmol of Fe will require 5.65mol of S8 i.e

Xmol of Fe = 8 x 5.65 = 45.2moles

Now we need to covert 45.2moles to gram. This is illustrated below below:

Molar Mass of Fe = 55.8g/mol

Number of mole of Fe = 45.2moles

Mass of Fe =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of Fe = 45.2 x 55.8

Mass of Fe = 2522g

Therefore, 2522g of Fe is needed for the reaction.

In a chemical reaction, substance R reacts with compound XY to produce 47.0 g of compound RX. If the theoretical yield of RX is
larisa86 [58]
The percent yield of a chemical reaction is calculated by dividing the actual yield (determined through experimentation) by the theoretical yield (calculations). The percent yield is a great way of determining the efficiency of a reaction. For this problem, the percent yield is 83.93% as given by the solution:

% yield = (47/56)*100 = 83.93%

What is the molecular formula for Tricarbon nonachloride?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

C_{3}Cl_{9}

Explanation:

Molecular Formula is representation of the chemical compound in terms of the symbols of all the elements that are present in the compound followed by subscripts, which give the count of each element in that compound.

We need to write the molecular formula of Tricarbon nonachloride. Tri means three, so Tricarbon means there are 3 atoms of Carbon. Likewise, nona stands for 9, so nonachloride means there are 9 atoms of chlorine. Therefore, we can represent nonachloride as:

Carbon (3 atoms) Chlorine (9 atoms) = C_{3}Cl_{9}

Thus, molecular formula of Tricarbon nonachloride is C_{3}Cl_{9}
