To three significant figures, the measurement 1246 g should be reported as [number] g.

Chemistry
1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

  • <u>1250 g</u>

Explanation:

The measurement <em>1246g</em> shows four figures. To show this measurement to <em>three signficant figures</em> you must change the last digit to 0 and round properly.

To report the measurement 1246g to three significant figures you must replace the last digit (the 6) with 0 and round the previous one (the 4) to the closest integer: 1250 is closest to 1246 than 1240, so the correct rounding is 1250.

In an integer number, the zeros after the last none zero digit are not sginificant figures; that is why the zero in 1250 g is not significant and this number has just three significant figures.

What is the specific heat capacity of a 70 g sample of an unknown metal that releases 6700J of heat when it cools from 90 to 25
swat32
Q = mCpΔT —> Solve for Cp —> Cp = q/mΔT

q = -6700 J (negative because it released heat
m = 70 g
ΔT = Final temp - initial temp = 25 - 90 = -65°C

Cp = -6700 J / (70 g)(-65°C) = 1.47 J/g°C

A 20.0 ml sample of glycerol has a mass of 25.2 grams. What is the mass of 63 ml sample of glycerol?
poizon [28]

The mass of 63 ml sample : 79.38 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

20 ml and 25.2 g of glycerol

Required

The mass of 63 ml sample

Solution

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

Density formula:

\large{\boxed {\bold {\rho~=~ \frac {m} {V}}}}

Density of glycerol :

= m : V

= 25.2 g : 20 ml

= 1.26 g/ml

Mass of 63 ml sample :

= density x volume

= 1.26 g/ml x 63 ml

= 79.38 g

A student collected the following data for a fixed volume of gas:
inessss [21]
First, you should convert the temperature unit to absolute temperature.

Second, you shoul graph the points. Then you will find a pretty linear correlations among the points.

You can pick between using the best fit line or you could observe that as you get to  higher temperatures the linear behavior is "more perfect".

I found this best fit line:

P = 2.608T + 14 
Then, for T = 423K

P = 2.608(423) + 14 = 1117 mmHg

If you prefer to use the last two points, this is the calculus:

[P - P1] / [T - T1] = [P2 - P1] / [T2 - T1]

[P - 960]/[423 -373]   = [960 - 880] / [373- 343]

=> P = 1093.3 mmHg.

You can pick any of the results 1177 mmHg or 1093 mmHg, You need more insight to choose one of them: conditions and error of the experiment for example.

What happens at the anode in an electrolytic cell?
Llana [10]

Answer:

D. Oxidation

Explanation:

In an <em>electrolytic cell</em>, oxidation (the loss of electrons) takes place at the anode. At the cathode reduction takes place.

A mnemonic technique that could be used is that the process that starts with a vowel (Oxidation) takes place at the place that also starts with a vowel (Anode).
