Answer : The correct option is, (3) Beaker.

Explanation :

Graduated cylinder : It is a measuring cylinder that is used to measure the volume of a liquid. It has a narrow cylindrical shape. The marked line drawn on the graduated cylinder shows the amount of liquid that has been measured.

Pipet : It is a type of laboratory equipment that is used to measure the volume of a liquid. It is small glass tube and the marked line drawn on the pipet. It is used to accurately measure and transfer of volume of liquid from one container to another.

Buret : It is a type of laboratory tool that is also used for measuring the volume of liquid. It is a glass tube with tap present at one end for transferring the liquid. It is also used to accurately measure and transfer of liquid.

Beaker : It is a type of laboratory equipment that has cylindrical shape and it is used for the mixing, stirring, and heating of chemicals.

As per question, we conclude that the beaker is least precise than other devices because in beaker the marking lines are not accurate. Thus, it cannot be used to measure volume to precision.

Hence, the correct option is, (3) Beaker.

3. beaker, beakers are made to just give you a rough estimate of volume all other ones are very precise.

Hope that helps :)

Calculate the volume occupied by 0.845 mole of nitrogen gas, the pressure, and the temperature. Find the volume.
NeTakaya

Answer:

V = 15.9512 dm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure = P = 1.37 atm

Temperature = T= 315 K

Number of moles of nitrogen= n = 0.845 mol

Volume = V = ?

Formula:

PV = nRT

Now we will put the values in equation.

V = nRT/ P

V = ( 0.845 mol× 0.0821 dm³.atm.K⁻¹.mol⁻¹ × 315 K) / 1.37 atm

V = 21.853 dm³. atm/  1.37 atm

V = 15.9512 dm³

What is the percent by mass of magnesium sulfate in MgSO4 · 7H2O?
AfilCa [17]
ANSWER - 48.83%

Mg - 24.31
S - 32.07
O - 16x4 - 64
ADD ALL TOGETHER = 120.38

H - 1.01x2 - 2.02
O - 16
TOTAL = 18.02x7 = 126.14

ADD 120.38 to 126.14 = 246.52
last part divide MgSO4 by total compound mass 
120.38/246.52 then multiply by 100 = 48.831

Commercial concentrated aqueous ammonia is 28% NH3 by mass and has a density of 0.90 g/mL. You may want to reference (Pages 539
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The molarity of this solution is 14.82 mol/dm3 or 14.82 mol/L

Explanation:

  • Molarity is the number of mole present in 1 Litre of solution. Molarity of a solution is a term referred to as concentration of a solution. The unit of Molarity is Mol/dm3 or Mol/L.
  • let us make an assumption that the volume of the ammonia solution is 1L or 1dm3. Also, 1L = 1000 mL.

Step 1: calculate the mass of the solution

Density = 0.90g/ml (from the question)

             Density = mass/ volume

Therefore Mass = density x  volume

                          =  0.90g/ml x 1000ml

                mass =  900 g

Step 2: calculate the mass of NH3 present in the solution

Since the concentrated aqueous of ammonia is 28%, It signifies that 1000ml of the solution contains 28% Ammonia

Recall from the above calculation that the mass of 1000 ml of solution is 900 g.

Therefore the mass of ammonia will be 28% of 900 g

                  mass of NH3 = 0.28 x 900 g

                                         = 252 g

Step 3: calculate the number of mole of NH3

        mole = mass/ molar mass

molar mass of NH3 = 17 g/mol

Therefore mole of NH3 = 252/17

                                       = 14.82 mol

Step 4: Calculate Molarity

            Molarity = number of moles/ volume of solution in Litre (L)

            Molarity = 14.82 / 1

            Molarity = 14.82 mol/L

What would the products be when aluminum chloride (which contains Al3+ and Cl- ions) is melted and electrolyzed? Write half equa
Hoochie [10]

The product of electrolysis : Al at cathode and Cl₂(chlorine) at anode

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Aluminum chloride compound

Required

The product of electrolysis

Solution

The rule :

The reaction at the cathode(the negative pole) :

1. the reduced active metal is water, other than that the metal will be reduced

2. H⁺ of the acid will be reduced

The reaction at the anode((the positive pole) :

1. if the electrodes are not inert then the metal is oxidized

2. If inert then:

a. OH⁻ from the base will be oxidized

b. The halogen metal will oxidize

In the electrolysis of molten AlCl₃ with an inert electrode, the cation will be reduced at the cathode and the anion will be oxidized at the anode

Cathode : Al³⁺ + 3e⁻ ⇒ Al(s)

Anode : 2Cl⁻⇒Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻
