Answer:

<h2>The answer is 14.29 %</h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual density = 0.70 g/mL

error = 0.8 - 0.7 = 0.1

So we have

P(\%) =  \frac{0.1}{0.7}  \times 100 \\  = 14.285714...

We have the final answer as

<h3>14.29 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

2. Determine the molarity of the NaOH solution in each trial. a. Trial 1 Molarity: b. Trial 2 Molarity: 3. Calculate the average
butalik [34]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete but...

1) You can calculate the molarity of the NaOH for each trial by following the steps below.

The formula for Molarity (M) is

M = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (V)

where the unit of volume must be in Litres or dm³

The unit of molarity is mol/dm³ or mol/L or molar conc (M)

The final answer must have the unit of molarity

If the number of moles is not provided, look out for the mass of NaOH used and then calculate your number of moles (n) as

n = mass of NaOH used ÷ molar mass of NaOH

Where the atomic mass of sodium (Na) is 23, oxygen (O) is 16 and hydrogen (H) is 1. Hence, molar mass for NaOH is 23 + 16 + 1 = 40 g/mol

n = mass of NaOH used ÷ 40

2) Average Molarity will be (Trial 1 Molarity +Trial 2 Molarity) ÷ 2

Answer must be in mol/dm³ or mol/L or M

3) Label the volumentric flask containing the NaOH solution with the answer gotten from (2) above

When maganese dioxide is added to hydrogen chloride you get water maganese dichloride and chlorine gas write the balanved equati
babunello [35]

Answer: When maganese dioxide is added to hydrogen chloride you get water maganese dichloride and chlorine gas then balanced equation is MnO_{2} + 4HCl \rightarrow 2H_{2}O + MnCl_{2} + Cl_{2}.

Explanation:

The word equation is given as maganese dioxide is added to hydrogen chloride you get water maganese dichloride and chlorine gas.

Now, in terms of chemical formulae this reaction equation will be as follows.

MnO_{2} + HCl \rightarrow H_{2}O + MnCl_{2} + Cl_{2}

Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • Mn = 1
  • O = 2
  • H = 1
  • Cl = 1

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • Mn = 1
  • O = 1
  • H = 2
  • Cl = 4

To balance this equation, multiply HCl by 4 on reactant side and multiply H_{2}O by 2 on product side. Therefore, the equation can be rewritten as follows.

MnO_{2} + 4HCl \rightarrow 2H_{2}O + MnCl_{2} + Cl_{2}

Hence, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • Mn = 1
  • O = 2
  • H = 4
  • Cl = 4

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • Mn = 1
  • O = 2
  • H = 4
  • Cl = 4

Since, this equation contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side. Therefore, this equation is now balanced equation.

Thus, we can conclude that when maganese dioxide is added to hydrogen chloride you get water maganese dichloride and chlorine gas then balanced equation is MnO_{2} + 4HCl \rightarrow 2H_{2}O + MnCl_{2} + Cl_{2}.

Empirical formula of a compound composed of 32.1 g potassium (k) and 6.57 g oxygen (o)?
tester [92]

The empirical formula is K₂O.

The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio</em> of atoms in a compound.

The <em>ratio of atom</em>s is the same as the <em>ratio of moles</em>.

So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of K to O.

Step 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element </em>

Moles of K = 32.1 g K × (1 mol K/(39.10 g K =) = 0.8210 mol K

Moles of O = 6.57 g O × (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 0.4106 mol 0

Step 2. Calculate the <em>molar ratio of each elemen</em>t

Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer

K:O = 0.8210:0.4106 = 1.999:1 ≈ 2:1

Step 3: Write the <em>empirical formula </em>

EF = K₂O
