In all measurements, you are looking for values that are accurate. Pretend that a pebble with a known mass of 0.567 g was massed

four times where the following masses were obtained: 0.256 g, 0.723 g, 0.554 g and 0.354 g. Those masses are an example of:__________.
a) being precise but not accurate.
b) being both precise and accurate.
c) being neither precise nor accurate.
d) being accurate but not precise.

Answer:

The correct answer is option c, that is, being neither precise nor accurate.

Explanation:

Obtaining the experimental values that come almost close to the true value is termed as accuracy. On the other hand, precision is obtaining experimental values continuously, which may come either far away or near to the true value.  

Based on the given information, it is clear that 0.554 grams, that is, the third value obtained from the experiment is showing some closeness to the true value, which is 0.567 grams. While, neither any of the other values are close or is coming near to the true value. This shows that the measurements are an illustration of being neither precise nor accurate.

What element is being oxidized in the following redox reaction?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The element that has been oxidized is the N

Explanation:

Zn²⁺(aq) + NH₄⁺(aq) → Zn(s) + NO₃⁻(aq)

See all the oxidation states:

Zn²⁺  → acts with +2

In ammonia, H acts with +1 and N with -3

Zn(s), acts with 0. In all the elements in ground state, the oxidation state is 0.

Zn changed from 2+ to 0. The oxidation number, has decreased.

This element has been reduced.

NO₃⁻ (aq) it's a ion, from nitric acid.

N acts with +5

O acts with -2

The global charge is -1

The N, has increased the oxidation state, so this element is the one oxidized.

Describe the reaction below by listing the
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The covalent bond in Cl₂ is break and combine with sodium to form NaCl through ionic bond.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Na  +  Cl₂    →   NaCl

Balanced chemical equation:

2Na  +  Cl₂    →   2NaCl

The given reaction indicate the formation of sodium chloride.

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound. It is formed by the reaction of chlorine and sodium. The type of bond in Cl₂ is covalent. Both chlorine atoms are tightly held together through sharing of electrons. When sodium chloride is formed the covalent between the chlorine atoms are break and it react with sodium . The chlorine toms thus gain the one electron from the sodium atom and became negative ion while sodium by losing its one valance electrons became positive ions. The strong electrostatic forces are develop between them and ionic bond is formed.

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

<h2>9000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 900 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>9000 N</h3>
