How can estimating measurements in an experiment lead to inaccurate results? ​

Chemistry

zimovet [89]4 years ago

Estimating measurements in an experiment leads to inaccurate results because they were guessed. Estimation is roughly guessing the results therefore it leads you to a wrong answer. By guessing you're assuming the answer, you don't know if the answer is correct and you don't know if that answer is the actual result. Say if you were estimating something in your science lab such as how much the battery has drained in a certain area, well using this you don't actually know if that's true and if someone were to use your results they may end up having a problem sense you ESTIMATED IT.

<em>Sorry if this answer isn't sweet and simple but more explained, it's kind of hard explaining this. I hope this helped!</em>

Inferential statistics allows a researcher to make inferences about a specific population based on data taken from a sample. Ple
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The correct answer is "True".

Explanation:

Inferential statistics derives from statistics that comprise the methods and procedures by which, using induction, it determines the properties of a statistical population from a sample of this population. The objective of this type of statistics is to obtain useful conclusions to be able to make deductions on a population, based on the information of the sample taken from it.

Have a nice day!

17.<br> What do you know about a chemical compound by looking at its chemical formula
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The number and the kinds of atoms in the compound

Explanation:

  • A chemical formula of a compound contains symbols o the atoms of the elements present in the compound as well as the number of atoms of each element in the form of subscripts.
  • Therefore it helps us to know the elements in a compound and the number of atoms in the compounds.

A solution is prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.16 M HCl and 0.52 M HNO3. (Assume that volumes are additive.)
slega [8]

Answer:

The pH of the final solution is 0.16 .

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in a solution.

pH=-\log[H^+]

Concentration of HCl = 0.16 M

HCl(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

HCl is a string acid .1 molar of HCl gives 1 molar of of hydrogen ions.

[H^+]=0.16 M

Concentration of HNO_3 = 0.52 M

HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq)+NO_{3}^-(aq)

Nitric is a string acid .1 molar of nitric acid gives 1 molar of of hydrogen ions.

[H^+]'=0.52 M

Total hydrogen ion concentration:

[H^+]''=[H^+]+[H^+]'

=0.16 M+0.52 M=0.68 M

The pH of the solution:

\pH=-\log[H^+]''=-\log[0.68 M]

pH = 0.16

The pH of the final solution is 0.16 .

K2CO3 = K2O +
never [62]

Answer:

K2CO3 = K2O + CO2

Explanation:

In a chemical equation, the number of atoms on the left needs to be balanced with the number of atoms on the right, and there has to be the same number of the same *type* of atom on both sides as well.
On the left:
2 K
1 C
3 O
and on the right,
2 K
1 O

On the right, there are a few atoms missing, specifically, 1 C and 2 O.
The missing atoms then should be added to the side missing the atoms, preferably in a stable molecule. Luckily, CO2 contains exactly 1 C, and 2 O s, and is quite stable. So, a "CO2" has to be added on the left

Calculate the percent error. A block has a true mass of 16.9 g. A student masses it to be 10.5 g. What is the student's percent
KIM [24]

Answer:

37.9%

Explanation:

x/100 × 16.9 = 10.5

16.9x/100=10.5

16.9x=1050. (÷ b.s by 16.9)

x=62.1%

100%-62.1%=37.9%
