Percent error (%)= \frac{\left | Accepted value - Measured value \right |}{Accepted value}\times 100

Accepted value is true value.

Measured values is calculated value.

In the question given Accepted value (true value) = 63.2 cm

Given Measured(calculated values) = 63.1 cm , 63.0 cm , 63.7 cm

1) Percent error (%) for first measurement.

Accepted value (true value) = 63.2 cm, Measured(calculated values) = 63.1 cm

Percent error (%)= \frac{\left | Accepted value - Measured value \right |}{Accepted value}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{\left | 63.2 - 63.1 \right |}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{0.1}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = 0.00158\times 100

Percent error = 0.158 %

2) Percent error (%) for second measurement.

Accepted value (true value) = 63.2 cm, Measured(calculated values) = 63.0 cm

Percent error (%)= \frac{\left | Accepted value - Measured value \right |}{Accepted value}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{\left | 63.2 - 63.0 \right |}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{0.2}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = 0.00316\times 100

Percent error = 0.316 %

3) Percent error (%) for third measurement.

Accepted value (true value) = 63.2 cm, Measured(calculated values) = 63.7 cm

Percent error (%)= \frac{\left | Accepted value - Measured value \right |}{Accepted value}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{\left | 63.2 - 63.7 \right |}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{\left | -0.5 \right |}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = \frac{(0.5)}{63.2}\times 100

Percent error = 0.00791\times 100

Percent error = 0.791 %

Percent error for each measurement is :

63.1 cm = 0.158%

63.0 cm = 0.316%

63.7 cm = 0.791%

Calculate the molarity of a 17.5% (by mass) aqueous solution of nitric acid. Select one: a. 2.74 m b. 4.33 m c. 0.274 m d. 3.04
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Option e.

Explanation:

Molarity is the concentration that indicates moles of solute in 1 L of solution.

We have another concentration, percent by mass.

Percent by mass indicates mass of solute in 100 g of solution.

Our solute is HNO₃, our solvent is water.

17.5 g of nitric acid is the mass of solute. We can convert them to moles:

17.5 g . 1mol / 63g = 0.278 moles

We do not have volume of solution. We assume the mass is 100 g because the percent by mass but we need density to state the volume.

Density = Mass / Volume

Mass / Density = Volume

Once we have the volume, we need to be sure the units is in L, to determine molarity

M = mol /L

A scientist measures out equal volumes and concentrations of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions. When mixed, these
olasank [31]

Answer:

Neutral solution is formed.

Explanation:

When the hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide which is a strong base are combined together, it produces sodium chloride which is a salt and water. This solution is known as Neutral solution because the solution do not have the characteristics or properties of either an acid or a base. If the concentration of one of the reactant is higher as compared to another reactant so the product has the characteristics of that reactant.
