The closeness of a measurement to its true value is a measure of its ____.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mrrafil [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: The closeness of a measurement to its true value is a measure of its accuracy.

Explanation:

Precision refers to the closeness of two or more measurements to each other. Example: If we measure weight four times and we get 60 kg each time. Then the measurement is very precise.

Accuracy refers to the closeness of a measured value to a standard or known value. Example: If the weight of the body is 60 kg and one person measures 58 kg and another person measures 59 kg. Then, the weight measured by second person is more accurate.

Thus the closeness of a measurement to its true value is a measure of its accuracy

PLEASE HELP! Find out whether the chemical equation is balanced or unbalanced.
nordsb [41]

One chemical reaction is called the Haber process, a method for preparing ammonia by reacting nitrogen gas with hydrogen gas:


This equation shows you what happens in the reaction, but it doesn’t show you how much of each element you need to produce the ammonia. To find out how much of each element you need, you have to balance the equation — make sure that the number of atoms on the left side of the equation equals the number of atoms on the right.


You know the reactants and the product for this reaction, and you can’t change them. You can’t change the compounds, and you can’t change the subscripts, because that would change the compounds.


So the only thing you can do to balance the equation is add coefficients, whole numbers in front of the compounds or elements in the equation. Coefficients tell you how many atoms or molecules you have.


For example, if you write the following, it means you have two water molecules:


Each water molecule is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. So with two water molecules (represented above), you have a total of 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms.


You can balance equations by using a method called balancing by inspection. You take each atom in turn and balance it by adding appropriate coefficients to one side or the other.


With that in mind, take another look at the equation for preparing ammonia: HOPE THIS HELPS

How is heavey water different from normal water
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Oxygen in heavy water, or d20, have an extra neutron, and it contains a higher portion of hydrogen. The extra neutron makes d20 (heavy water) about 10% denser than normal H20 (water).

Hope this helps!

I need help on 18b. i’m confused on how you would work it.
AfilCa [17]
For a and b, you need to divide it by Avogadro’s number to find the answer.

a. (6.022x10^23)/6.022x10^23 = 1 mole of Ne
b. (3.011x10^23)/6.022x10^23 = 0.5 moles of Mg

For c and d, you’ll use the mass provided divided by the molar mass to find the number of moles.
Pb molar mass = 207.2 g/mol

c. (3.25x10^5)/207.2 = 1.57x10^3 moles of Pb
For d, I can’t tell if is Cu, C or something else but you can follow the steps above to solve the problem.
