THE BRAINLIEST ANSWER ASAP!! PLEASE HELP ME OR I FAIL!!! Describe some of the rules scientists follow to reflect the uncertainty

of measurements and calculations.

Measurements may be accurate, meaning that the measured value is the same as the true value; they may be precise, meaning that multiple measurements give nearly identical values (i.e., reproducible results); they may be both accurate and precise; or they may be neither accurate nor precise. The goal of scientists is to obtain measured values that are both accurate and precise.

Suppose, for example, that the mass of a sample of gold was measured on one balance and found to be 1.896 g. On a different balance, the same sample was found to have a mass of 1.125 g. Which was correct? Careful and repeated measurements, including measurements on a calibrated third balance, showed the sample to have a mass of 1.895 g. The masses obtained from the three balances are in the following table:

Write the ΔH system for each of the following changes in physical state
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

a. positive

b. negative

c. positive

d. negative

Explanation:

In a exothermic reaction, heat is written as a product (del H is negative), whereas in an endothermic reaction heat is written on the reaction side (del H is positive).

For a, it is endothermic process. We know this because to go from solid to liquid you need to put energy into the system. When we put energy into a chemical system it is said to be an endothermic reaction.

For b, it is exothermic reaction. This is because you have to lose the extra energy to go from less ordered states (gas) to more ordered state (liquid). Gas is less ordered because its molecules are freely moving and such. Another way of thinking about this question is just putting the heat on product side and think if I was going in reverse direction I would put heat in product because I would need to add heat to liquid to turn to gas (and if heat is added to product side we know its exothermic). Two ways of thinking whichever you prefer.

The rest have similar explaination.

In terms of newtons 3rd law of motion desribe this picture.
KIM [24]
Newton's third law (for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction) means that in every interaction (in this case, that of the objects in the image), there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. <span>When you sit on a chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. This is embodied in the image by the two objects exerting force on each other (indicated by the arrows).</span><span>

Hope this helps.</span>

What is meant by term valency? Explain it in terms of electrons donations and acceptance.​
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Valency can be defined as a measure of the combining power of a chemical element with other atoms to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Explanation:

An atom can be defined as the smallest unit comprising of matter that forms all chemical elements. Thus, atoms are basically the building blocks of matters and as such determines or defines the structure of a chemical element.

Generally, atoms are typically made up of three distinct particles and these are protons, neutrons and electrons.

In Chemistry, electrons can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.

Valency can be defined as a measure of the combining power of a chemical element with other atoms to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Typically, valency is measured by the amount of hydrogen atoms that a chemical element can combine with or displace to form a molecule or chemical compound.

For example, Oxygen has a total number of eight (8) electrons while neon has total number of ten (10) electrons. Therefore, an atom of oxygen is able to gain (accept or receive) two (2) more electrons in order to have the same electron arrangements as the noble gas i.e an atom of neon with an atomic number of 10.
