The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Jia observes that adding a solution of sodium hydroxide to a clear liquid turns the liquid pink. She makes a hypothesis about why the liquid changed color.

Which characteristic is least important for her hypothesis to have?

A)ability to be tested

B)based on the opinion of her classmates

C)ability to be proven incorrect

D)based on her current knowledge

Answer:

B)based on the opinion of her classmates

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a supposition or tentative explanation put forward based on minimal evidence. It sometimes sets the pace for further investigation.

Hypothesis is always based on empirical observation and not on popular opinion, hence the opinion of Jia's classmates is least important in Jia's formulation of a hypothesis.

How many total atoms are in 0.670 g of p2o5?
scoray [572]

The molecular formula for compound is  P_{2}O_{5} mass of compound is 0.670 g.

To calculate number of atoms first calculate number of moles in the compound as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Molar mass of  P_{2}O_{5} is 283.886 g/mol, thus,

n=\frac{0.670 g}{283.886 g/mol}=0.00236 mol

Thus, number of mole of P_{2}O_{5} is 0.00236 mol.

From the molecular formula 1 mole of P_{2}O_{5} has 2 mol of P (phosphorus) and 5 mol of O (oxygen).

Thus, number of moles of P and O in 0.00236 mol of P_{2}O_{5} will be:

n_{P}=2\times 0.00236 mol=0.00472 mol

Similarly,

n_{O}=5\times 0.00236 mol=0.0118 mol

Now, in 1 mol of an element there are 6.023\times 10^{23} atoms.

Number of atoms of P will be:

N_{P}=0.00472\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=2.84\times 10^{21}atoms

Similarly, number of atoms of O will be:

N_{O}=0.0118\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=7.11\times 10^{21}atoms

Total number of atoms will be sum of number of atoms of P and O:

N_{Total}=N_{P}+N_{O}=2.84\times 10^{21}+7.11\times 10^{21}=9.95\times 10^{21} atoms

Therefore, total number of atoms in P_{2}O_{5} will be 9.95\times 10^{21} atoms.

A bottle of coke is 250.0 mL. What is the volume in cubic centimeters?
hoa [83]

Answer:

The volume in cubic centimeters is 250

Explanation:

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, that is, when one magnitude increases, so does the other (or when one magnitude decreases, so does the other), the direct rule of three must be applied. To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

So:

x=\frac{c*b}{a}

The direct rule of three is the rule applied in this case where there is a change of units. To perform this conversion of units, you must first know that 1 mL = 1 cubic centimeters. So, if 1 cubic centimeters is 1 mL, how many cubic centimeters equals 250 mL?

cubic centimeters=\frac{250 mL*1 cubic centimeters }{1 mL}

cubic centimeters= 250

<u><em>The volume in cubic centimeters is 250</em></u>

Calculate the molarity of 0.850 mol of Na2S in 1.70 L of solution.
Basile [38]

Molarity is simply the ratio of the number of moles of a substance over the total volume of the solution. Assuming that the addition of 0.850 moles does not change the overall volume of 1.70 L, therefore molarity is simply:

 

Molarity = 0.850 moles / 1.70 L = 0.5 moles / L = 0.5 M

1. Make an observation : My toaster doesn't toast my bread

2. Ask a question : Why doesn't my toaster work?

3. Form a hypothesis : My coffeemaker works when plugged into the outlet

4. Make a prediction : If something is wrong with the outlet, then my coffeemaker also won't work when  plugged into it

5. Conduct an experiment : I plug my coffeemaker into the outlet

6. Analyze the results : There is something wrong with the electrical outlet

Explanation:

The solution to the problem is as shown above.

  • A scientific method follow a methodical way of critically carrying out an inquiry into an observation.
  • Firstly, an observation is usually made with our senses. Here the researcher observes that the toaster does not toast his bread probably after a long wait.
  • He then proceeds to ask why the toaster does not work.
  • To investigate this, the forms a hypothesis. A hypothesis is a scientific guess. It is a tentative proposition about an investigation.
  • The researcher then makes a prediction about the outlet that might be faulty.
  • With this background, he goes on to carry out an experiment to substantiate his findings. This is seen when he plugs the coffeemaker into the outlet.
  • From the analysis of result, he sees that that something is wrong with the outlet.
