Answer:

Average of measurements = 20.97 cm

Explanation:

Given data:

Three measurements of pete's = 20.9 cm, 21.0 cm, 21.0 cm.

Average value of measurements = ?

Formula:

Average of measurements = sum of all measurements / Total number of measurements

Solution:

Average of measurements = 20.9 cm + 21.0 cm + 21.0 cm. / 3

Average of measurements = 62.9 cm / 3

Average of measurements = 20.97 cm

Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate is heated until all the water is driven off. The sample loses 11.80 grams upon heating. What was

iren [92.7K]

Hello!

The initial mass of Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) is 23,08 g

The chemical reaction for the dehydrating of Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) is the following:

MgSO₄·7H₂O(s) + Δ → MgSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(g)

We know that the sample loses 11,80 g upon heating. That mass is the mass of Water that is released as vapor. Knowing that piece of information, we can apply the following conversion factor to go from the mass of water to the moles of water and back to the mass of the original compound (mi).

$mi=11,80gH_2O* \frac{1 mol H_2O}{18gH_2O}* \frac{1molMgSO_4.7H_2O}{7molH_2O}* \frac{246,47 g MgSO_4.7H_2O}{1 mol MgSO_4.7H_2O} \\ \\ mi=23,08gMgSO_4.7H_2O$

Have a nice day!

if a scientist creates a new rock like substance in a laboratory, why wouldnt this type of material be classified as a true mine

ad-work [718]

The reason why it is not considered this is because the material was made in a lab, not through nature, which is what is required to be considered as a true mineral.

When 4.15 grams of silver nitrate is reacted with 1.11 grams of iron(III) chloride, which best represents the amount of silver c

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The mass of silver chloride produced = 2.202 g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is given below

3AgNO₃(aq) + FeCl₃(aq) ----> 3AgCl(s) + Fe(NO₃)₃(aq)

molar mass of AgNO₃ = 170 g/mol

molar mass of FeCl₃ = 233.5 g/mol

molar mass of AgCl = 143.5 g/mol

3 moles of silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of iron (iii) chloride to give 3 moles of silver nitrate

4.15 grams of AgNO₃ = 4.15/170 = 0.0244 moles of AgNO₃

1.11 grams of FeCl₃ = 1.11/233.5 = 0.0047 moles of FeCl₃

mole ratio of AgNO₃ to FeCl₃ = 0.0244/0.0047 = 5 : 1

therefore, FeCl₃ is the limiting reactant

0.0047 moles of FeCl₃ reacting will produce 0.0047 * 3 moles of AgCl = 0.0141 moles of AgCl

0.0141 moles of AgCl = 0.0141 * 143.5 g of AgCl = 2.02 g of AgCl =

Therefore mass of silver chloride produced = 2.202 g

A solution of starch at room temperature does not readily decompose to form a solution of simple sugars because

Basile [38]

Explanation:

The starch requires a temperature higher than the room temperature (arround 60 °C) to decompose to form simple sugars. This is because the energy required to break the chemical bonds. Also, it may need the action of some specific enzymes (alpha and beta amilase) to break those bonds.
