3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Accuracy is defined is as the ability to perfectly repeat results in an experiment. It is simply reproducing the same set of result with little to no altercation.

Precision is nearness of the result to the true value.

(a) Checking for consistency in the weight of chocolate chip cookies: 17.27 g, 13.05 g, 19.46 g, 16.92 g

The result above is neither accurate nor precise. We can see a lot of inconsistencies in the readings shown and no repeatability whatsoever.

(b) Testing the volume of a batch of 25- mL pipettes: 27.02mL, 26.99 mL, 26.97 mL, 27.01 mL

The results here are accurate but not precise. They are a little bit off the 25mL mark but the experiment was able to reproduce nearly the same result.

(c)Determining the purity of gold: 99.9999%, 99.9998%, 99.9999%

This result is both precise and accurate. Pure Gold should be 100% and our values are very close. The experiment also was able to generate very accurate results.

Write a balanced net ionic equation for the reaction of aqueous solutions of baking soda (NaHCO3) and acetic acid.(A) HCO3–(aq)
IgorC [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid is given as:

NaHCO_3(aq.)+CH_3COOH(aq.)\rightarrow CH_3COONa(aq.)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

Na^+(aq.)+HCO_3^-(aq.)+CH_3COO^-(aq.)+H^+(aq.)\rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq.)+Na^+(aq.)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)

As, sodium and acetate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

HCO_3^-(aq.)+H^+(aq.)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+H_2O(l)

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

Describe the whole process of Aluminum extraction from bauxite.​
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Extraction of aluminium

Aluminium ore is called bauxite . The bauxite is purified to produce aluminium oxide, a white powder from which aluminium can be extracted. The extraction is done by electrolysis. The ions in the aluminium oxide must be free to move so that electricity can pass through it.

A mixture of hydrogen (2.02 g) and chlorine (35.90 g) in a container at 300 K has a total gas pressure of 748 mm Hg. What is the
Llana [10]

The partial atmospheric pressure (atm) of hydrogen in the mixture is 0.59 atm.

<h3>How do we calculate the partial pressure of gas?</h3>

Partial pressure of particular gas will be calculated as:

p = nP, where

  • P = total pressure = 748 mmHg
  • n is the mole fraction which can be calculated as:
  • n = moles of gas / total moles of gas

Moles will be calculated as:

  • n = W/M, where
  • W = given mass
  • M = molar mass

Moles of Hydrogen gas = 2.02g / 2.014g/mol = 1 mole

Moles of Chlorine gas = 35.90g / 70.9g/mol = 0.5 mole

Mole fraction of hydrogen = 1 / (1+0.5) = 0.6

Partial pressure of hydrogen = (0.6)(748) = 448.8 mmHg = 0.59 atm

Hence, required partial atmospheric pressure of hydrogen is 0.59 atm.

Which of the following is true for balancing equations?
algol [13]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

An equation with the equal amount and proportion of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction is commonly referred to as a balanced chemical equation.

The law of conservation of matter asserts that no observable and empirical change in the amount of matter occurs within a conventional chemical process. As a result, each element in the product would have the same equal amount or numbers of atoms as the reactants.

Draw the lewis structure for so42-. How many equivalent resonance structures can be drawn?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure and resonating structure of SO_4^{2-} is shown below.

Explanation :

Resonance structure : Resonance structure is an alternating method or way of drawing a Lewis-dot structure for a compound.

Resonance structure is defined as any of two or more possible structures of the compound. These structures have the identical geometry but have different arrangements of the paired electrons. Thus, we can say that the resonating structure are just the way of representing the same molecule.

First we have to determine the Lewis-dot structure of SO_4^{2-}.

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, SO_4^{2-}

As we know that sulfur and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in SO_4^{2-} = 6 + 4(6) + 2 = 32

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 12 number of bonding electrons and 20 number of non-bonding electrons.

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure and resonating structure of SO_4^{2-} is shown below.
