Answer:

Regularly test the water in residents' homes.

Explanation:

The only way to know if tap water contains lead is to do tests to determine the levels of that metal in the water. Therefore, the state is under an obligation to constantly conduct such tests in the resident´s homes and thus determine whether the water supplied is fit for human consumption.  

The state after the tests must guarantee the population the treatment of the water to reduce the levels of lead. The main pipes that contain lead pipes must be changed, as well as those parts of the service connections made of lead.

Answer:

A) 3.17 g of Zn

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Zn(II) that occurs in an electrolysis bath.

Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ → Zn(s)

We can establish the following relations:

  • 1 min = 60 s
  • 1 A = 1 C/s
  • The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant).
  • When 2 moles of electrons circulate, 1 mole of Zn is deposited.
  • The molar mass of Zn is 65.38 g/mol

The mass of Zn deposited under these conditions is:

24min \times \frac{60s}{1min} \times \frac{6.5C}{s} \times \frac{1mol\ e^{-} }{96,468C} \times \frac{1molZn}{2mol\ e^{-}}  \times \frac{65.38g}{1molZn} = 3.17 g

Rewrite this measurement with a simpler unit, if possible. <br> 8.3 kg•m^2/ s^2
Feliz [49]

Answer: 8.3 J

Explanation:

We have the following measurement:

8.3 \frac{kg m^{2}}{s^{2}}

Rearranging the units:

8.3 \frac{kg m}{s^{2}}m

Since 1 Newton is 1 N=1 \frac{kg m}{s^{2}}:

8.3 Nm

Since 1 Joule is 1 J=1 Nm:

8.3 J This is the simplest form possible

Why are significant figures rules for calculations more important in science than in math class?
inysia [295]

Answer:

The importance of significant figures

As stated before, it is important within the science fields that you are not more precise or accurate than the least accurate or precise number. In science, it is generally agreed upon that the last number digit in any figure is filled with uncertainty.
