A lab group was measuring the mass of an object. They recorded the following masses for the same object: 12.13 g, 12.12 g, 12.13

g, and 12.11 g. The actual mass of the object was 17.13 g. Which of the following best describes the lab groups results? The results were both accurate and precise. The results were accurate but not precise. The results were precise but not accurate. The results lacked both precision and accuracy.

Answer:

Precise, but not accurate

Explanation:

First, let’s define accuracy and precision.

⇒Accuracy: how close you are to the actual value

⇒Precision: how close the measurements are to each other.

Let’s examine the data given:  

12.13 g, 12.12 g, 12.13 g, and 12.11 g

Each number is or is very close to 12.12 (within 0.1)

The actual mass of the object is 17.13 grams. Each measurement is about 5 grams away from the actual mass.

Since the measurements are very close to each other, but quite far from the true value, we can say the results are precise, but not accurate.

Answer:

Element A = Oxygen

Element H =

Element B = Aluminum

Element J = Magnesium

Element C = Selenium

Element L = Carbon

Element D = Sodium

Element Q = Francium

Element F = Antimony

Element R = Calcium

Element G = Chlorine

Element S = Tellurium

Explanation:

Element A  is Oxygen because: oxygen 6 valence electrons ; is a gas at room temperature ; and is transported in blood to cells.

Element H  is Neon because: Neon is a noble gas ;   qppears as red light when charged with  electricity (Neon light signs)  and it has the second highest Ionization energy of the elements

Element B  is Aluminum because: Aluminum is a metal and its ion has charge of +3. It is also located on the borders of the Metalloid staircase .

Element J  is Magnesium because its ion has charge of 2+ and is  isoelectronic with Neon  because it loses two electrons to now have 10 electrons.

Element C  is Selenium because its ion that has a charge of -2  is formed by gaining two electrons in order to have 36 electrons which is isoelectronic with Kr ypton

Element L  is Carbon because carbon has the smallest atomic radius of any member in the Carbon family  because it is the first member of the family and atomic radius increases on going down the group.

Element D  is Sodium because its ion has charge of +1  and it has 2 inner core levels , the 1 and 2 energy levels.

Element Q  is Francium because it has the largest radius and lowest ionization  energy of any element

Element F  is Antimony. It is a member of Nitrogen family  and has the second highest ionization energy level in family .

Element R  is calcium because its on has charge of +2  which is isoelectronic with Argon . Calcium also has atomic radius is larger than Ar gon.

Element G  is Chlorine. It has the second to the smallest radius of elements in the 3rd period  as the second to the last element in the period because atomic radius decreases across a period from left to right.

Element S  is Tellurium. It has atomic mass larger than Iodine just to the right  of it and is found in the 5th period

Determain the number of moles in 2.24l of ch4 at stp
valkas [14]

Answer:

0.1 mole of CH₄

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of CH₄ = 2.24 L

Number of mole of CH₄ =?

The number of mole of CH₄ can be obtained as follow:

Recall:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4 L at stp. This implies that 1 mole of CH₄ occupies 22.4 L at stp.

22.4 L = 1 mole of CH₄

Therefore,

2.24 L = 2.24 × 1 mole of CH₄ / 22.4

2.24 L = 0.1 mole of CH₄.

Why dilute H2SO4 is added to oxali acid solution in redox reaction​
Sphinxa [80]

To prevent the hydrolysis and to catalyse the reaction.

Explanation:

  • Sulphuric acid is the catalyst and also a dehydrating agent in this reaction.
  • Sulphuric acid is using in redox reaction because sulphuric acid is providing H+ ions which is necessary for this reaction to occur more quickly, but the sulphate ions from the sulphuric acid barely react during this process. So H2SO4 is adding in this reaction to make it more acidic.
  • H2SO4 is preventing hydrolysis by providing excess H+ ions into the reaction. H2SO4 is stable towards the direction of oxidation.

1. A mixture of 3 gases (A, B, and C) has a total pressure of 240kPa. If the partial pressure of
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

78 kPa

Explanation:

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures:

240 = Pa + Pb + Pc

240 = 107 + 55 + Pc

Pc = 78 kPa
