The answer is false because qualitative data is describing something with words and quantitative data is describing something with numbers.
Vladimir [108]3 years ago

Answer: False

Explanation:

Qualitative data is one which can be observed with our senses such as sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. Qualitative observations do not involve any measurement. Example: Colour of an object

Quantitative data is one which involves measurement of data in numbers. Example: speed of an object

As the biologist is measuring the length of salmon as they travel upstream , it measures data in numbers and hence is a quantitative data and not a qualitative data.

What sample size (grams) of Na3PO4 (FW 164.00) known to be 50.00% pure should be used to consume exactly 40.00 mL of 0.1000 M HC
Mkey [24]

Answer:

0.109 g.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction:

Na3PO4 + 3HCl --> 3NaCl + H3PO4

Number of moles of HCl = molar concentration × volume

= 0.1 × 0.04

= 0.004 mol.

By stoichiometry, 1 mole of Na3PO4 neutralises 3 moles of HCl. Therefore, number of moles of Na3PO4 = 0.004/3

= 0.0013 mol

Mass of Na3PO4 = molar mass × number of moles

= 0.0013 × 164

= 0.219 g

Since 50% of Na3PO4 was present in the sample. Let 100 g be the total mass of the substance

= 0.219 × 50 g/100 g

= 0.109 g.

Why was there so much disagreements among the ancient greeks about the nature of the atoms?
olga2289 [7]
It is because in that time science was not established. This is, the experimentation to test hypotheses, which is a fundamental part of the scientific method, was not applied.

Atoms can not be seen, then they could only reflect or philosophize on this matter. This method is not able to give good answers to so complicated scientific matters.

How many moles of mercury, Hg, are there in 1.30 x 10^7 atoms of murcury? PLEASE HELP, IT'S URGENT! Thank you! (:
vodka [1.7K]
1 mole Hg ---------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
??  ------------------------- 1.30 x10⁷ atoms

1.30x10⁷ x 1 / 6.02x10²³ =

= 1.30x10⁷ / 6.02x10²³ => 2.159x10⁻¹⁷ moles

hope this helps!

Consider the following electron configurations to answer the questions that follow: (i) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 (ii) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 (ii
Ahat [919]

Option (i) would have the highest 2nd Ionization Energy.

Option (i) is Sodium.

Can be Written as 2, 8 , 1

For its 1st Ionization energy... It'd be extremely easy to remove that Electron cos its on the outermost shell.

Now After Removing that Electron...

Sodium's Electronic Configuration Reduces to that of Neon Which is 2, 8.

Neon has a very stable Octet.

It would take an ENORMOUS amount of energy to break its Octet stability... that is... Remove 1 electron from its Octet.

So

Option (i) [Sodium] has the highest 2nd Ionization Energy
