Students in Mr. Klein’s chemistry class are conducting an experiment to calculate the specific heat of a copper sample. Mr. Klei

n requires each lab team to repeat the experiment until their percent error is 2% or less. Percent error is calculated using observed values (those students calculate from their lab results) and the true value (the accepted value based on reference). The formula for percent error is: (observed – true) x 100 true If the accepted value for the specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/g°C, which of the following lab teams have an unresolved problem on their hands
a.

team 1: calculates 0.392 J/gºC
b.

team 2: calculates 0.395 J/gºC
c.

both teams
d.

neither team

Answer is: c) team 2: calculates 0.395 J/gºC.

1) Team 1:

Percent error = (0.392 J/g°C - 0.385 J/g°C) ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 0.007 J/g°C ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 1.82%.

2) Team 2:

Percent error = (0.395 J/g°C - 0.385 J/g°C) ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 0.010 J/g°C ÷ 0.385 J/g°C · 100%.

Percent error = 2.60 %.

Percent error in team 1 value:
(0.392 - 0.385)/0.385  x 100
= 1.81%

Percent error in team 2 value:
(0.395 - 0.385)/0.385 x 100
= 2.60%

B. Team 2 has an unresolved issue in on their hands, resulting in greater than acceptable error.

2. (Exercise 4.1.6) A liquid adhesive consists of a polymer dissolved in a solvent. The amount of polymer in the solution is imp
Lilit [14]

Answer:

800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

Explanation:

3000 lb of 13% solution is required .

Total adhesive in weight = 3000 x .13 = 390 lb of adhesive

Available = 500 lb of 10% solution = 50 lb of adhesive

Rest = 390 - 50 = 340 lb required .

rest mass of solution = 3000 - 500 = 2500 lb

mass of adhesive required = 340 lb

Let the mass  of 20% required be V

mass of adhesive = .20 V

.20 V = 340

V = 1700

rest of the volume = 2500 - 1700 = 800 lb which will be of pure solvent

So 800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (the solute) in water (the solvent) with a solution density of 1010 g/L. If vinegar is 0.80
Damm [24]

Answer:

4.8 %

Explanation:

We are asked the concentration in % by mass, given the molarity of the solution and its density.

0.8 molar solution means that we have 0.80 moles of acetic acid in 1 liter of solution. If we convert the moles of acetic acid to grams, and the 1 liter solution to grams, since we are given the density of solution, we will have the values necessary to calculate the % by mass:

MW acetic acid = 60.0 g/mol

mass acetic acid (the solute) = 0.80 mol x 60 g / mol = 48.00 g

mass of solution = 1000 cm³ x 1.010 g/ cm³      (1l= 1000 cm³)

                            = 1010 g

% (by mass) = 48.00 g/ 1010 g  x 100 = 4.8 %

202H8(9) + 7 O2(g) > 4CO2(g) + 6 H2O(9).
lilavasa [31]

since the concentration of Carbon Dioxide will increase, it would make Q > K, cause equilibrium to shift in the direction with less moles of gas to alleviate the extra pressure. In this case, the reaction will shift left because there are fewer moles of gas present.

Name: _________________ Temperature o fwater_25_degreecent.YOU MUST SHOW ALL CALCULATIONS TO RECEIVE CREDIT FOR THEM! DATA ANALY
Anton [14]

Answer:

1. 0.02 M

2. 0.01 M

3. 4×10⁻⁶

Explanation:

We know that V₁S₁ = V₂S₂

1.

Concentration of HCl = 0.05 M

end point comes at = 10 ml

So, concentration of OH⁻(aq) = [OH⁻(aq)] ⇒ (0.05 × 10) ÷ 25 ⇒ 0.02 M

2.

2mol of OH⁻(aq) ≡ 1 mole of Ca²⁺(aq)

[Ca²⁺] = 0.02 ÷ 2 = 0.01 M

3.

K_{sp} = [Ca²⁺(aq)] [OH⁻(aq)]²

Ca(OH)₂ (aq) ⇄ Ca²⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻ (aq)

K_{sp} = [0.01 × (0.02)²] = 4×10⁻⁶

4.

If reaction is exothermic which means heat energy will get evolved as a result temperature of the reaction media will get increased during the course of the reaction. If temperature is externally increased, the reaction will go backward to accumulate extra heat energy.

5.

K_{sp} value describes the solubility of a particular ionic compound. The higher the K_{sp} value, the higher the Solubility will be.

6.

This may be due to uncommon ion effect. The process of other ions (K⁺ or Na⁺) may increase the solubility
