The current scientific verdict on the phlogiston theory demonstrates which two of the following principles?

Chemistry
1 answer:
masha68 [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The two valid principles are:

  • Scientific theories can be replaced by better theories.
  • An experiment can disprove a theory that scientists have accepted.

Explanation:

The scientific knwoledge is not inmutable; it may (and does) change with new discoveries.

In fact, scientific theories cannot be proved right, instead they are constantly tested to try to  disprove them. This is what the principle that theories are falsiable means.

As long as a scientific theory is not disproved it remains valid, but new discoveries may lead, eventually, to its disprovement.

Scientific knowledge evolves because new procedures, new technologies, and new evidence leads to a better understanding and better explanations.

A train in Japan can travel 813.5 miles in 5 hours
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

162.7miles/hr

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered by the train  = 813.5miles

Time taken  = 5hours

Unknown:

Speed of the train  = ?

Solution:

Speed is a physical quantity.

It is mathematically expressed as;

      Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

So, input parameters and solve;

   Speed  = \frac{813.5}{5}  = 162.7miles/hr

A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17 g of carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen. what is the correct representation of the
yarga [219]

CH3 is the empirical formula for the compound.

A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17g of Carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen.

The number of atom or moles in the compound is

1.17 g C X  1 mol of C / 12.011 g C = 0.097411 mol of C.

0.287 g H x 1 mol of  H / 1 g H = 0.28474 mol H.

This compound contains 0.097411 mol of carbon and 0.28474 mol of Hydrogen.

So we can represent the compound with the formula C0.974H0.284.

Subscripts in formulas can be made into whole numbers by multiplying the smaller subscript by the larger subscript.

we can divide 0.284 by 0.0974.

0.284 / 0.0974 = 3.

So here, Carbon is one and hydrogen is 3.

We can write the above formula as a CH3.

Hence the empirical formula for the sample compound is CH3.

Part 1: What is the final volume in milliliters when 0.730 L of a 44.8 % (m/v) solution is diluted to 23.3 % (m/v)?
Andre45 [30]

part 1 : the final volume : 1.404 L

part 2 : the initial concentration : 4.06 M

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Dilution is the process of adding a solvent to get a more dilute solution.

The moles(n) before and after dilution are the same.

Can be formulated :

M₁V₁=M₂V₂

M₁ = Molarity of the solution before dilution  

V₁ = volume of the solution before dilution  

M₂ = Molarity of the solution after dilution  

V₂ = Molarity volume of the solution after dilution

part 1 :

M₁=44.8%

V₁=0.73 L

M₂=23.3%

\tt V_2=\dfrac{M_1.V_1}{M_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{44.8\times 0.73}{23.3}\\\\V_2=1.404~L

part 2 :

V₁=739 ml=0.739 L

V₂=1.5 L

M₂=2

\tt M_1=\dfrac{M_2.V_2}{V_1}\\\\M_1=\dfrac{2\times 1.5}{0.739}\\\\M_1=4.06
