Student A performed gravimetric analysis for sulfate in her unknown using the same procedures we did . Results of her three tria

ls were 68.6%, 66.2% and 67.1% sulfate. Student B analyzed the same unknown his results were 66.7%, 66.6% and 66.5%. The unknown was sodium sulfate. Calculate a percent e rror fo r Student A and for Student B using as the accepted value the theoretical value for sulfate in sodium sulfate based on molar mass . [Y ou may use the Internet, a textbook, the Chemistry C ommunity Learning Center (CCLC) or any other resource for an explanation/description of percent error .] Which student , A or B, was more accurate? Which student was more precise? Explain your answers

Answer:

The answer is Sodium Sulfate = Na2SO4  

Explanation:

Molar mass of sulfate = 1 (S) + 4 (O) = 1 (32) + 4 (16) = 32 + 64 = 96  

Molar mass of sodium sulfate = 2 (23) + 96 = 46 + 96 = 142  

% of Sulfate = (96/142)*100 = 67.6%  

Percent mistake in Studen A,  

(I) % mistake = (67.6 - 68.6)/67.6 = 1.48  

(ii) % mistake = (67.6 - 66.2)/67.6 = 2.07  

(iii) % mistake = (67.6 - 67.1)/67.6 = 0.74  

For understudy B  

(I) % mistake = (67.6 - 66.7)/67.6 = 1.33  

(ii) % mistake = (67.6 - 66.6)/67.6 = 1.48  

(iii) % mistake = (67.6 - 66.5)/67.6 = 1.63  

Sutdent An is some how exact.  

Understudy B is exact however not precise.

Shannon needs 9 feet of ribbon for an art project. How many inches of ribbon should she buy if she is making 4 projects
Reil [10]

432 inches

Each project is 9 feet, and she is making 4 projects, so multiply 9 by 4 to find the number of feet needed. You should get 36. Each foot is equal to 12 inches, so multiply 36 by 12 to get 432 inches.

Compound EX4 reacts with Y2 giving two products: EX Y and XY. Calculate the E- X bond enthalpy if the reaction liberates 243.6 k
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Equation

EX_4+Y_2->EX_3Y+XY

Bond enthalpies are:

 Y-Y 109 kJ/mol,

X-Y 123.1 kJ/mol  

E-Y 290 kJ/mol.

Generally the equation for the energy used to break E-X and Y-Y is mathematically given by

 E_2=109+x

Therefore

Total Energy Liberated is

 E_T=E_1+E_2

 E_T=413.1+109+x

 E_T=304.1-x

Since

  E_T+E_I

Therefore

 304.1-x=243.6

 x=60.5kJ/mol

Option B

As the magnesium reacts, the hydrogen gas produced is collected by water displacement at 23.0oC. The pressure of the gas in the
stiv31 [10]

Answer: The pressure that the H_2(g) produced in the reaction would have if it were dry will be 728 torr

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

p_{total}=p_{H_2}+p_{H_2O}

Given : p_{total}  =total pressure of gas = 749 torr

p_{H_2} = partial pressure of hydrogen = ?

p_{H_2O} = partial pressure of water = 21 torr

putting in the values we get:

749=p_{H_2}+21

p_{H_2}=728torr

Thus the pressure that the H_2(g) produced in the reaction would have if it were dry will be 728 torr
