Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

$P(\%) = \frac{error}{actual \: \: number} \times 100\% \\$

From the question

actual volume = 22.4 L

error = 22.4 - 19.3 = 3.1

The percentage error is

$P(\%) = \frac{3.1}{22.4} \times 100 \\ = 13.839285714...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Question 7 of 15

Crazy boy [7]

Answer: 0.4 moles

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of gas V = 11L

(since 1 liter = 1dm3

11L = 11dm3)

Temperature T = 25°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(25°C + 273 = 298K)

Pressure P = 0.868 atm

Number of moles N = ?

Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1

Then, apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

0.868atm x 11dm3 = n x (0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 298K)

9.548 atm dm3 = n x 24.47atm dm3mol-1

n = (9.548 atm dm3 / 24.47atm dm3 mol-1)

n = 0.4 moles

Thus, there are 0.4 moles of the gas.

Given the reaction: solid sodium reacts with chlorine gas to form solid sodium chloride How many moles of the product result fro

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

number of moles of NaCl produce = 12 mol

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to write the chemical equation of the reaction and balance it .

Na(s) + Cl2(g) → NaCl(s)

The balanced equation is as follows:

2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)

1 mole(71 g) of chlorine produces 2 moles(117 g) of sodium chloride

6 mole of chlorine gas will produce ? mole of sodium chloride

cross multiply

number of moles of NaCl produce = 6 × 2

number of moles of NaCl produce = 12 moles

number of moles of NaCl produce = 12 mol

Identify each of the following sets of quantum numbers as allowed or not allowed in the hydrogen atom.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to firstly recall the electron configuration of hydrogen:

$1s^1$

To realize that the principal quantum number is 1, the angular is 0 as well as the magnetic one; therefore we infer that all the given n's are not allowed, just l=0 is allowed as well as ml=0 yet the rest, are not allowed.

Given that nitrogen forms three bonds with hydrogen to make <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=NH_%7B3%7D" id="TexFormula1" title

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Three hydrogen atoms to form PH₃.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the elements belonging to the nitrogen family (N, P, As, Sb and Bi) show five valence electrons, because there are five electrons at their outer shell, it is clear that if phosphorous bonds with hydrogen, it is going to require the same amount of oxygen atoms (3) because elements having five valence electrons need 3 bonds in order to attain the octet (5+3=8).

Therefore the compound would be:

$PH_3$

Which is phosphine.

Best regards!
