Scientific laws are scientists' opinions of why events occur in nature. Scientific laws describe specific relationships in nature without offering. an explanation.
Answer:
The reaction rate k is 0.0012563 (1/hour).
Explanation:
We considered the reactions occurring in the plant as first order, and represented by this equation:
where y is the BOD at time t, L is the initial value of BOD and k is the reaction rate.
If we replaced with the values
y = 2 mg O2/l (1% of the initial value)
L = 200 mg 02/l
t = 8 hr
We can calculate k
The reaction rate k is 0.0012563 1/hour.
Answer:
Conversion factor;
Molar mass;
Avogadro's constant and molar mass
Explanation:
- Firstly, an intermediate step is to define the conversion factor that will be then used in a conversion technique called dimensional analysis in order to convert from one unit to another. An example of a conversion factor would be, for example, 1 L = 1000 mL, which can be manipulated as a fraction, either or ;
- Secondly, in order to convert mass to moles, we need to know the molar mass of a compound which has a units of g/mol (that is, it shows how many grams we have per 1 mole of substance.
- Thirdly, Avogadro's constant, tells us that there is number of molecules or atoms in 1 mole of substance. We need two conversion factors to convert the number of molecules to a mass: firstly, we need to convert the number of molecules into the number of moles using Avogadro's constant and then we need to use the molar mass to convert the moles obtained into mass.
Answer:
D. The data supported the hypothesis
Explanation:
The data shows that rats fed a normal diet with the addition of vitamins gained a higher average weight gain in the period of 3 months, compared to rats fed a normal diet. This supports the scientists' hypothesis of "Young rats that had vitamins added to their food would gain weight faster than young rats fed a normal diet."
Answer:
Anna didn't wear a lab coat
Explanation:
The first thing anyone who is to carry out a procedure or an experiment in a lab needs to do when he/she enters a lab is to wear a lab coat. This is a lab safety rule that protects the individual from been affected by spillage that could occur as a result of the experiment been conducted.
From the narration in the question, <u>it is not stated anywhere that Anna wore a lab coat before embarking on her lab procedure</u>.
