An object was measured by a worker as

Chemistry
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

\boxed{2.8 \, \%}

Explanation:

\text{Percent error} = \dfrac{\lvert \text{Measured - Actual}\lvert}{ \text{Actual}} \times100 \, \%

Data:

Predicted = 17.4 cm

     Actual = 17.9 cm

Calculation:

\text{Percent error} = \dfrac{\lvert 17.4 - 17.9\lvert}{17.9} \times 100 \, \% \\\\= \dfrac{\lvert-0.5\lvert}{17.9} \times 100 \, \% = \dfrac{0.5}{17.9} \times 100 \, \% \\\\= 0.028 \times 100 \, \% = \textbf{2.8 \%}\\\\\text{The percent error in the measurement is } \boxed{\textbf{2.8 \%}}

I need to know all the answers for this homework!!!!
maw [93]

1. 100 C

2. Point B to C is the ices heat capacity

3. During the points D to E the bonds of the water molecules build up enough kinetic energy to break their intermolecular bonds (not intra), which can lead to gas.

4. Between points D and E the energy is being released the energy required is equivalent along the line.

5. Between point E and D the water is converting to water (condensation)

6. Energy is being released 2260 j/g

7. Yes, but only under extreme volumetric pressures

8. D and E or B and C

9. Freezing (the water is also becoming less dense)

10. Melting or if water already, absorbtion of energy

11. released.

At a certain temperature the rate of this reaction is first order in HI with a rate constant of :0.0632s
Shalnov [3]

Answer : The time taken for the reaction is, 28 s.

Explanation :

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by :

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}

where,

k = rate constant  = 0.0632

t = time taken for the process  = ?

[A_o] = initial amount or concentration of the reactant  = 1.28 M

[A] = amount or concentration left time 't' = 1.28\times \frac{17}{100}=0.2176M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

0.0632=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{1.28}{0.2176}

t=28s

Therefore, the time taken for the reaction is, 28 s.

What type of particle has no mass or charge? <br> A) Alpha <br> B) Beta <br> C) Gamma <br> D) Proton
viva [34]

Answer:

Your answer would be C.

Explanation:

Gamma radiation, unlike alpha or beta, does not consist of any particles, instead consisting of a photon of energy being emitted from an unstable nucleus. Having no mass or charge, gamma radiation can travel much farther through air than alpha or beta, losing (on average) half its energy for every 500 feet.

Water readily sticks to many other substances, a property called ______. Water readily sticks to many other substances, a proper
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

Cohesion is usually defined as the contrasting property by which the water molecules are attached to one another, and adhesion is the property by which the molecular substances are linked to the molecules of other substances.

Since, the water molecules are able to form inter-molecular hydrogen bonding, so they are comprised of strong cohesive force.

And, as the water molecules are able to stick to the walls of the container, so they tend to show more of the properties for adhesion.

Thus, according to the given condition, water molecules are sticking to other substances and this is the property of adhesion.

Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
