The molar mass of a solid carboxylic acid is determined by titrating a known mass of the acid with a standardized solution of Na

OH to a phenolphthalein endpoint. Which errors will lead to a molar mass that is smaller than the actual molar mass? I. Some of the acid is spilled when being transferred into the titration flask. II.The endpoint is recorded when the solution is dark red in color rather than light pink.

The answer is: II.The endpoint is recorded when the solution is dark red in color rather than light pink.

The endpoint is the point at which the indicator changes colour in a colourimetric titration and that is point when titration must stop.  

Phenolphthalein is colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions. If  this indicator change color to dark red, more base is added and endpoint is not accurate.

If the the acid is spilled before titration, that does not make endpoint wrong and molar mass can be calculated.

In this example we can take acetic acid as carboxylic acid; basic salt sodium acetate CH₃COONa is formed from the reaction between weak acid (in this example acetic acid CH₃COOH) and strong base (in this example sodium acetate NaOH).  

Balanced chemical reaction of acetic acid and sodium hydroxide:  

CH₃COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) → CH₃COONa(aq) + H₂O(l).  

Neutralization is is reaction in which an acid (in this example vinegar or acetic acid CH₃COOH) and a base react quantitatively with each other.

Thallium consists of 29.5%TI-203 and 70.5%TI-205. What is the relative atomic mass of thallium
Galina-37 [17]
To determine the relative atomic mass of thallium, we multiply the molar mass of the isotopes to their corresponding relative abundance. The molecular percentages should sum up to 1. In this case, we multiply 203 by 0.295 and 205 by 0.705 and add the answers of the two. The final atomic mass is 204.41 g/mol.

algol13

Answer:

Explanation:

They provide structure for the body, take in nutrients from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and carry out specialized functions. Cells also contain the body's hereditary material and can make copies of themselves. Cells have many parts, each with a different function.

List any two types of mixtures that are not covered in the Exploration. Also mention the state
marishachu [46]

This question is incomplete because you lack the options. But it can be answered based on my knowledge.

Two types of mixture could be: homogeneous and heterogeneous

A mixture is a term that refers to the combination of two or more components joined but not chemically combined. Mixtures can be classified as follows:

  • Homogeneous: Are characterized by having a uniform texture and appearance, their components are not distinguished.
  • For example: water + grapes = wine

Homogeneous mixtures can be:

  • Solutions: The mixtures formed are characterized by being formed with components that do not react chemically with each other, but that can modify their physical properties when they become part of the solution.
  • For example: coffee + milk = Coffee

There are also Colloids, a type of mixture formed by particles of one or more substances that are dispersed in another substance called a dispersing medium.

  • For example Gelatin powder + Water = Gelatin.

They are the intermediate mixtures between homogeneous and heterogeneous.

  • Heterogeneous: Are mixtures in which it is possible to observe their components due to the discontinuity with the naked eye.
  • For example Milk + cereal = Cereal
