Answer:

Perfectly Specified

Explanation:

Given,

Pressure = P = 0.9 atm

and the Boiling point = T

Number of phases P = 1

Number of components C = 1

According to Gibb's phase rule ,

F = C - P + 2

If

  • F = 0, the system is perfectly specified

  • F > 0, the system is under specified

  • F < 0 the system is over specified

At P = 0.9 atm, boiling point is T i.e. Fixed equal to 96.7 °C (from steam table)

P is independent variable and T is dependent variable (depends on the value of P ).

In this case only two variables are required to fix the system pressure and temperature.

In the given problem, pressure is fixed so the temperature is also fixed. There is no requirement of any other variable.

Therefore degree of freedom,

F = 0

The system is perfectly specified.

Differentiate the claims made by science from those based on bias.
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Scientists seek to eliminate all forms of bias from their research. However, all scientists also make assumptions of a non-empirical nature about topics such as causality, determinism and reductionism when conducting research. Here, we argue that since these 'philosophical biases' cannot be avoided, they need to be debated critically by scientists and philosophers of science.

Explanation:

Scientists are keen to avoid bias of any kind because they threaten scientific ideals such as objectivity, transparency and rationality. The scientific community has made substantial efforts to detect, explicate and critically examine different types of biases (Sackett, 1979; Ioannidis, 2005; Ioannidis, 2018; Macleod et al., 2015). One example of this is the catalogue of all the biases that affect medical evidence compiled by the Centre for Evidence Based Medicine at Oxford University (catalogueofbias.org). Such awareness is commonly seen as a crucial step towards making science objective, transparent and free from bias.

How many moles are equal to 1.3 x 1024 atoms of aluminum?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.16 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L}  \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{1.3 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 2.159468...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.16 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

Salsk061 [2.6K]
It is called exothermic reaction because it releases heat and light and it is called combustion reaction because it is reacting and is being oxidised by O2 to MgO. It can also be called as oxidation reaction since Mg is oxidised to MgO.
