Suppose that the volatile impurities in the crucible are not burned off while cleaning the crucible but are removed during the e

xperiment. Is the reported mass percent of water in the hydrated salt too high or too low?

<span>If you don't properly clean a crucible before weighing it, the mass that you record will be greater than the actual mass of the crucible. If that extra weight is lost during the course of an experiment and you reweigh the full crucible later, you will not account for some of the product generated; that is, your final mass of the full crucible minus the original mass of the crucible will generate a value lesser than the one that you SHOULD. So, for this experiment, I gather that you placed in a crucible some sort of hydrated salt and then heated it to remove the water. If, in addition to removing water, you also removed some sort of impurity from the crucible, it is going to appear that you have lost more water weight than you actually have. So, you will be reporting a mass percent of water that is too high.</span>

The reported mass will be too high because the initially recorded mass will include both water and impurities and the final mass will without both components. The difference will be larger so the amount of water reported would be higher.

The two cerebral hemispheres are separated by the
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The two cerebral hemispheres are separated by the longitudinal fissure.

Explanation:

The longitudinal or intercerebral fissure is a deep cleft that divides the brain longitudinally into two hemispheres (the right and the left) joined together by the corpus callosum. Other fissures, such as the central sulcus, the lateral sulcus and the internal perpendicular fissure, divide each hemisphere into large cerebral lobes, which in turn have cerebral convolutions.

4 The graph below shows how the activity of an enzyme changes
choli [55]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A. The optimum pH of the enzyme is 6.6.  - this is true. The optimum pH of the enzyme is where its activity is the highest. On the graph, this is pH 6.6 (activity at 100)

B. The optimum pH of the enzyme is 5.8.  - this is false, the activity of the enzyme peaks at 6.6 (100), at 5.8 the activity is 80

C. The enzyme's activity is greater around pH 8.0 than around  pH 5.0  - This is false, the activity at pH 5 is 50, whereas at around 8 it is 20.

D . The enzyme's activity continually increases as pH increases  from 5.0 to 9.0 - this is false. The activity drops between pH 6.6 and pH 9.

What relationship between both an abiotic and a biotic factor in a ecosystem?
likoan [24]

Answer:

Abiotic factors are all of the non-living things in an ecosystem. Both biotic and abiotic factors are related to each other in an ecosystem, and if one factor is changed or removed, it can affect the entire ecosystem. Abiotic factors are especially important because they directly affect how organisms survive.
