Because there are many numbers of the human measurement . we must manage the uncertainly doing calculations because we can know what we are calculating.

"To determine the amount of heroin in the mixture, you dissolve 1.00 g of the white powdery mixture in water in a 100.0-mL volum
UkoKoshka [18]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate osmotic pressure is as follows.

 Osmotic pressure = concentration × gas constant × temperature( in K)

Temperature = 25^{o} C

                      = (25 + 273) K

                      = 298.15 K  

Osmotic pressure = 531 mm Hg or 0.698 atm     (as 1 mm Hg = 0.00131)

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

       0.698 = C \times 0.082 \times 298.15 K


               C = 0.0285

This also means that,

  \frac{\text{moles}}{\text{volume (in L)}} = 0.0285

So,     moles = 0.0285 × volume (in L)

                      = 0.0285 × 0.100

                     = 2.85 \times 10^{-3
}

Now, let us assume that mass of C_{12}H_{23}O_{5}N = x grams

And, mass of C_{12}H{22}O_{11} = (1.00 - x)

So, moles of C_{12}H_{23}O_{5}N = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                              = \frac{x}{369}

Now, moles of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} = \frac{(1.00 - x)}{342}

                   = \frac{x}{369} + \frac{(1.00 - x)}{342}

                  = 2.85 \times 10^{-3}

             = x = 0.346

Therefore, we can conclude that amount of C_{12}H_{23}O_{5}N present is 0.346 g  and amount of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} present is (1 - 0.346) g = 0.654 g.

Which properties make a metal a good material to use for electrical wires? malleability and reactivity conductivity and ductilit
Schach [20]
The metal properties that make up electrical wires are conductivity and ductility. Conductivity is important for free electrons to flow, hence electricity. Ductility is as well integral for strips to be formed, but with ample strength that does not break the material.
