Iron has a density of 7.87mL. How much mass would a 12.3mL sample contain?

algol [13]3 years ago

The correct answer is 96.80 grams

Explanation:

The density of a substance shows the total mass the substance contains in 1 mL or 1 cm3 as density is calculated by using the formula D= M (mass) / V (volume). This implies, Iron contains 7.87 grams per milliliter. Moreover, this value and formula can be used to calculate the mass or volume of any other sample. The process to calculate the mass of an iron sample with a volume of 12.3 mL is shown below.

D = M ÷ V

7.87 mL = x ÷ 12.3 mL - x represents the missing value. Now find the value of x by solving the equation

x = 7.87 · 12.3  

x = 96.80

This means a sample of 12.3 mL contains a mass of 96.80 grams. Also, you can know this value is correct because if you divide the mass by the value the density is the same (96.80 grams ÷ 12.3 mL = 7.87 g/mL)

Lemur [1.5K]
The correct answer is C. An example of measurement bias in scientific measurement, of the available answers, would be a balance that always reads 0.1g. The other possible answers are all examples of devices or measurement techniques that would help a scientist to avoid measurement bias, rather than contributing to it.

Why must every redox reaction involve an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent?
vagabundo [1.1K]

A reduced element (which gains electrons) and an oxidized element are required for redox reactions (gives electrons). It is not a redox reaction if we lack both of them (an element can not receive electrons if no element gives electrons and vice versa).

A reduced half and an oxidized half, which always occur together, make up redox processes. While the oxidized half experiences electron loss and an increase in oxidation number, the reduced half obtains electrons and the oxidation number declines. The mnemonic devices OIL RIG, which stand for "oxidation is loss" and "reduction is gain," are simple ways to memorize this. In a redox process, the total number of electrons stays constant. In the reduction half reaction, another species absorbs those that were released in the oxidation half reaction.

In a redox reaction, two species exchange electrons, and they are given unique names:

  • The ion or molecule that accepts electrons is called the oxidizing agent - by accepting electrons it oxidizes other species.
  • The ion or molecule that donates electrons is called the reducing agent - by giving electrons it reduces the other species.

Hence, what is oxidized is the reducing agent and what is reduced is the oxidizing agent.

<h3>What is the purpose of oxidizing agents and reducing agents?</h3>

By reducing other compounds and shedding electrons, a reducing agent raises its oxidation state. An oxidizing agent gets electrons by oxidizing other compounds; as a result, its oxidation state lowers.

<h3>What is a redox reaction?</h3>

Oxidation-reduction (or "redox") reactions are chemical processes in which electrons are exchanged between two substances. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical process in which a molecule, atom, or ion alters the number of electrons it has, hence increasing or decreasing its oxidation state.

Which measurement has the greatest number of significant figures?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Option B = 60,600 mg  (correct option)

Explanation:

First of all we will have an idea which numbers are consider as significant.

1 = All non-zero digits are consider significant figures like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

2= Leading zeros are not consider as a significant figures. e.g. 0.02 in this number only one significant figure present which is 2.

3= Zero between the non zero digits are consider significant like 105 consist of three significant figures.

4= The zeros at the right side e.g 3400 are also significant. There are four significant figures are present.

In given options, Option A 60.6 mg have 3 significant figures.

Option B have 5 significant figures.

Option C have 4 significant figures.

Option D have 3 significant figures.

Thus option b is correct option which have more significant figures.
