Steven had a sample of ethanol and wanted to see if it would boil at the temperature found in his textbook. His experiment yield
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

17.04%

Explanation:

Actual Value = 173.1

Measured Value = 143.6

Percent error is obtained using the equation;

Percent error = (Measured - Actual) / Actual ]* 100

Percent error = [ (143.6 - 173.1) / 173.1 ] * 100

The absolute value of (Measured - Actual) is taken,

Percent Error = [29.5 / 173.1 ] * 100

Percent Error = 0.1704 * 100 = 17.04%

Which of the following is a chemical change?
FromTheMoon [43]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Silver tarnishing as the silver metal reacts with sulphur is a chemical change.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Tarnishing is the process of chemical change occurring on the surface of objects leading to corrosion or other defects on the surface. The remaining options like dilution, eroding is a physical change where the concentration of salt and rock particles will be decreased, respectively.

Similarly for soil drying also the concentration of water will be decreased leading to a physical change from wetty or dry soil.

But the last option which indicates tarnishing of silver metal on reaction with sulphur is a chemical process as the surface of silver metal will be reacting to sulphur and leads to lose of electrons which leads to corrosion of the surface or tarnishing of silver.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Atomic number 26,atomic mass 26+30=56 dalton and net charge is 3+

Explanation:

The total number of proton present in an atom is known as the atomic number of that atom.From that point of view the atomic number of iron ion is 26.

  The total number proton and neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom or ion is termed as atomic mass.From that point of view the the atomic mass of iron ion is 26+30=56 dalton

 According to the given question iron ion contain 3 more protons than electrons as a result the iron ion will contain 3 unit positive charge.
