Describe the method for taking an accurate measurement by using a measuring tool.

Chemistry

The accurate measurements are near the center. To determine if a value is accurate compare it to the accepted value. As these values can be anything a concept called percent error has been developed. Find the difference (subtract) between the accepted value and the experimental value, then divide by the accepted value.

Three different atoms or atomic cations with 3 electrons.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Li, Be^+, B^{2+}

Explanation:

To answer this question successfully, we need to remember that atoms are neutral species, since the number of protons, the positively charged particles, is equal to the number of electrons, the negatively charged particles. That said, we may firstly find an atom which has 3 electrons (and, as a result, 3 protons, as it should be neutral).

The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of an element. We firstly may have an atom with 3 protons and 3 electrons (atomic number of 3, this is Li).

Similarly, we may take the atomic number of 4, beryllium, and remove 1 electron from it. Upon removing an electron, it would become beryllium cation, Be^+.

We may use the same logic going forward and taking the atomic number of 5. This is boron. In this case, we need to remove 2 electrons to have a total of 3 electrons. Removal of 2 electrons would yield a +2-charged cation: B^{2+}.

What is an ion? Describe and give an example.
Goshia [24]
An ion is a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom. An example is Iron (III) , Iron (II) , lithium, and hydrogen.

On a cool morning (12"C), a balloon is filled with 1.5 L of helium. By mid afternoon, the temperature has soared to 32°C. What i
ddd [48]

Answer:

1.6 L

Explanation:

Using Charle's law  

\frac {V_1}{T_1}=\frac {V_2}{T_2}

Given ,  

V₁ = 1.5 L

V₂ = ?

T₁ = 12 °C

T₂ = 32 °C  

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (12 + 273.15) K = 285.15 K  

T₂ = (32 + 273.15) K = 305.15 K  

Using above equation as:

\frac{1.5}{285.15}=\frac{V_2}{305.15}

V_2=\frac{1.5\cdot \:305.15}{285.15}

New volume = 1.6 L

lava is a hot liquid rock. when lava flows over solid ground beneath it increases in temperature. what happens to the molecules
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Lava is hot liquid rock. When lava flows over solid ground, the solid ground beneath it increases in temperature. What happens to the molecules in the solid ground when the temperature is increasing? The energy of the molecules in the ground decreases.
