Answer:

0.24%

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Measured value = 42.1 g

Actual value = 42 g

Percentage error =?

Percentage error can be obtained by using the following formula:

Percentage error = |Measured value – Actual value | / Actual value × 100

With the above formula, we can obtain the percentage error as follow:

Measured value = 42.1 g

Actual value = 42 g

Percentage error =?

Percentage error = |42.1 – 42| / 42 × 100

Percentage error = 0.1/42 × 100

Percentage error = 10/42

Percentage error = 0.24%

Therefore, the percentage error is 0.24%

How many hydrogen molecules are there in 1 ton of hydrogen?​
zaharov [31]
Hydrogen gas(H2) has a molar mass of 2 g. Molar mass of a substance is defined as the mass of 1 mole of that substance. And by 1 mole it is meant a collection of 6.022*10^23 particles of that substance.

So number of moles of H2 are 0.5 in this case. And thus it means there are (6.022*10^23)*0.5 particles( here they are molecules) in 1g of H2.
