Percent error is [(abs(experimental - actual))/(actual)] * 100
(38.0 - 40.0 ) / 40.0 = 2.0 / 40 = 0.05
0.05 * 100 = 5
since there are 2 sigfigs, the answer is 5.0 %
I made the 2 positive since the absolute value of 38.0 - 40.0 was taken
There are only 2 sigfigs because of the subtraction of 38.0 - 40.0 gives 2.0, only 2 sigfigs
Answer:
The function of the respiratory system is to move two gases: oxygen and carbon dioxide. Gas exchange takes place in the millions of alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries that envelop them.
Answer:
Mass of glucose = 515.34 g
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass; m = 60 kg
Elevation; h = 1550 m
Acceleration due to gravity; 9.8 m/s²
Now, work performed to lift 60kg by 1550m is given by the formula;
W = mgh
W = 60 × 9.8 × 1550
W = 911400 J
We are told the actual work is 4 times the one above.
Thus;
Actual work = 4W = 4 × 911400 = 3,645,600 J
Now,
Molar mass of Glucose(C6H12O6) = 180 g/mol
We are given standard enthalpy of combustion = -1273.3 KJ/mol = -1273300
Moles of glucose = 3645600/1273300 = 2.863mol
Mass of glucose = 2.863 mol × 180 g/mol
Mass of glucose = 515.34 g
