Answer:

Mass = 11 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Zn = 5 g

Mass of HCl = 50 g

Mass of hydrogen gas produced = 6 g

Mass of zinc chloride produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + 2HCl    →   ZnCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 5 g / 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.08 mol

Number of moles of HCl :

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g / 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.4 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with zinc chloride.

              Zn           :           ZnCl₂

               1             :             1

              0.08       :        0.08

            HCl          :         ZnCl₂

              2            :           1

             1.4          :         1/2×1.4 =0.7 mol

The number of moles of zinc chloride produced by Zn are less so it will limiting reactant.

Mass of zinc chloride:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.08 mol × 136.3 g/mol

Mass = 11 g

Balanced chemical reaction: 2KCl + Pb(NO₃)₂ → PbCl₂ + 2KNO₃.

According to principle of mass conservation, number of atoms must be equal on both side of balanced chemical reaction.  

KCl is potassium chloride.

Pb(NO₃)₂ is lead(II) nitrate.

KNO₃ is potassium nitrate.

PbCl₂ is lead(II) chloride.

The concentration of an additive in a standard sample of palm oil was measured 6 times and the following results were obtained:
Lerok [7]

In the data, 0.20 ppm is an outlier and this can be rejected if there is a 95% confidence level.

<h3>What is an outlier?</h3>

When analyzing data an outlier is a value that is abnormal or too different from other data. In the case presented 0.20 can be tagged as an outlier because other values such as 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, and 0.14 are similar while 0.20 is outside this range.

<h3>Should this piece of data be rejected?</h3>

The general rule is that if there is a 95% of confidence or higher you can reject an outlier, knowing the other data occurs 95% of the time, and therefore the outlier is improbable.

Based on this, you can reject an outlier if the confidence level is 95%.

Lena [83]

The two observations you would make about the atoms are

  1. They are made up largely of empty space
  2. Their mass is concentrated at the center called a nucleus

These observations were made by Ernest Rutherford in his model of the atom established in 1911, when he performed his gold foil experiment and observed the scattering angle of the alpha particles which led him to conclude that the mass of the atom was concentrated at the center.

Also, that most of the alpha particles also went through the gold foil suggested that the atom was made up basically of empty space.

So,
