Answer:

We have the final answer as

<h2>7.14 %</h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual density = 5.6 g/mL

error = 5.6 - 5.2 = 0.4

The percentage error is

P(\%) =  \frac{0.4}{5.6}  \times 100 \\  = 7.142857...

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.14 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

How to calculate the frequency of an ion
sergij07 [2.7K]

solution:

You need to find the frequency, and they have already given you the wavelength. And since you already know the speed of light, you can use formula (2) to answer this problem. Remember to convert the nano meters to meters because the speed of light is in meters. (1 nm = 1.0 x 10^{-9} m)

v=c\lambda \\v= (3.00 \times 10^8 m/s)/(6.9\times 10^-7 m) \\v = 4.35 \times 10^{14} s^{-1}

If a gas occupies 1532.7 mL at standard temperature, what volume does it occupy at 49.4 ºC if the pressure remains constant?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

a. 1810mL

Explanation:

When conditions for a gas change under constant pressure (and the number of molecules doesn't change), it follows Charles' Law:

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}  where the temperatures must be measured in Kelvin

To convert from Celsius to Kelvin, add 273, or use the equation:  T_C+273=T_K

For this problem, one must also recall that standard temperature is 0°C (or 273K).

So, T_1 = 273[K], and T_2 = (49.4+273)[K]=322.4[K].

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

\dfrac{(1532.7[mL])}{(273[K])}=\dfrac{V_2}{(322.4[K])}

\dfrac{(1532.7[mL])}{(273[K\!\!\!\!\!{-}])}(322.4[K\!\!\!\!\!{-}] )=\dfrac{V_2}{(322.4[K]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{----})}(322.4[K]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{----})

1810.04571428[mL]=V_2

Adjusting for significant figures, this gives V_2=1810[mL]

The pH of a solution is measured as 4.5. What is the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution?
Bond [772]

Answer:

[H⁺] =  3.16 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L

Explanation:

Given data:

pH of solution = 4.5

Hydrogen ion concentration = ?

Solution;

pH = -log [H⁺]

we will rearrange this formula:

[H⁺] =  10∧-pH

[H⁺] = 10⁻⁴°⁵

[H⁺] =  3.16 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L
