Answer:

The original concentration of ethanol was 18 % (v/v)

Explanation:

For the analysis of a sample, mostly dilutions are made of the original concentrated sample. The analysis results obtained from the diluted sample are then calculated for the concentrated samples.

According to the given data, the wine sample was diluted 75 times. This means that the initial concentration of ethanol was 75 times more than the final concentration i.e. 0.24 % (v/v). So mathematically:

original concentration (v/v)= final concentration (v/v) x times diluted

original concentration (v/v)= 0.24 % x 75

original concentration (v/v) = 18 %

Express in scientific notation. Make sure your answer has the same number of significant figures as the starting value. (1.8 x 1
slamgirl [31]

Answer : The answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is defined as the way or representation of expressing the number that are too big or too small that is written in the decimal form. That means always written in the power of 10 form.

For example : 8000 is written as, 8.0\times 10^3  in this notation, the significant figure is, 1 but 0.8\times 10^4  in this notation, the significant figures are, 2

The given problem are :

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-2}}{9\times 10^2}=0.2\times 10^{-4}

According to the divide and multiplication rules of scientific figures, the final answer is only as precise as the value with the least number of significant figures.

Hence, the answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

A 50.0 mL graduated cylinder has a mass of 65.1 g. When it is filled with an unknown liquid to the 49.3 mL mark, the cylinder an
Delvig [45]

<u>Answer:</u> The density of liquid is 1.12g/cm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of cylinder, m_1 = 65.1 g

Mass of liquid and cylinder combined, M = 120.5 g

Mass of liquid, m_2 = (M-m_1)=(120.5-65.1)g=55.4g

To calculate density of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

We are given:

Mass of liquid = 55.4 g

Volume of liquid = 49.3 mL = 49.3 cm^3    (Conversion factor:  1mL=1cm^3 )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Density of liquid}=\frac{55.4g}{49.3cm^3}\\\\\text{Density of liquid}=1.12g/cm^3

Hence, the density of liquid is 1.12g/cm^3
