As chief chemist at Superior Analytical Products (SAP) you must design an experiment to determine the density of an unknown liqu

id to three (3) significant figures. The density is of the order of 1 g/cm3. You have approximately 7 mL of the liquid and only graduated cylinders and balances are available for your use. Which of the following combinations of equipment will allow you to meet but not exceed your goal?
a. graduated cylinder with +0.1 mL uncertainty, balance with :0.1g.
b. graduated cylinder with ±001 mL uncertainty: balance with 101 g uncertainty.
c. graduated cylinder with t0.01 mL uncertainty balance with t0 01 g uncertainty.
d. graduated cylinder with ±0 001 mL uncertainty, balance with 10001 g uncertainty.

Answer:

The correct answer is a

Explanation:

The formula for density is mass ÷ volume. Hence, a balance is required to determine the mass while a measuring/graduated cylinder is required to determine the volume.

The ideal measuring cylinder and balance to be used should have an uncertainty of just 0.1 ml and 0.1 g respectively. This reduces the chances of the answer gotten from the formula above to be more than 3 significant figures.

For example, if the volume to be used is 4.0 ml and the mass of this volume is 3.5 g, the density will be

Density = 3.5 ÷ 4

Density = 0.875 g/cm³ or 0.875 g/ml

NOTE that cm³ is the same measurement as mL

The answer above is in 3 significant figures

What is the h concentration in a solution with a ph of 1.25
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

0.056 M

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of h we must use the following formula:

10^-pH

So lets plug in our pH:

10⁻¹.²⁵

When we plug this into our calculator our answer is

0.056 M

Which of the following changes can alter the form of a substance but does not necessarily change it to an other substance?
Goshia [24]

Answer:

  • The physical changes can alter the form of a substance but does not necessarily change it to an other substance

Explanation:

  • The physical properties of matter is one that does not depend on composition.It just change the form of matter into another form with changing into composition.
  • Physical properties include: appearance, texture, color, odor, melting point, boiling point, density, solubility, polarity, and many others.
  • The three states of matter are: solid, liquid, and gas. The melting point and boiling point are related to changes of the state of matter. All matter may exist in any of three physical states of matter.

Example:

  1. When water is boiled then it change into vapors. Now the form of water is change but its composition is same like water
  2. When water freezes into ice, now phase are different i.e water is liquid while ice is solid but both have same composition.
