Read the speedometer and report the speed to the proper

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitry [639]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  • In miles per hour: 82 mph
  • In km/h: 121 km/h

Explanation:

The correct number of digits to report a measure include every certain digit plus one uncertain digit.

The speedometer has marks for:

  • every 2 km per hour, km/h. Because each small tick mark on the outer circle represents 2 mph.

  • every 10 miles per hour mph. Because each small tick mark on the inner scale represents 10 mph.

As a rule you can appreciate up to half way between two small tick marks.

So, for km/h you can appreciate half of 2 km/h, i.e. 1 km/h.

The needle is marking between 120 km/h and 122 km/h, which means that the correct measure is 121 km, where the two leftmost digits are certain and the ones digit is uncertain.

For mph, you can appreciate half of 10 mph, i.e. 5 mph. A measure between 80 and 90 mph should be read as 85 mph.

Furthermore, in this last case of mph, the space between two consecutive marks is broad and equal to 10 mph but also the needle is wide, so it is difficult to appreciate less than 5 mph.

The correct measure must have two significant digits: one certain and one uncertain. So, 82 mph is as correct as 85 mph, since the 8 is certain and the next number (either 2 or 5) is uncertain.

The reaction for producing glucose in plants, called photosynthesis, is:
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

41.16 moles of H2O

Explanation:

Ratio for the products-reactants is 1:6, so 1 mol of glucose is produced when plants use 6 moles of water.

Then, let's make a rule of three:

1 mol of glucose is produce by using 6 moles of water

6.86 moles of glucose are produced by the use of (6 . 6.86)/1 = 41.16 moles of H2O

Why are metals malleable,ductile,and good conductors
9966 [12]
The energy is transferred throughout the rest of the metal by the moving electrons. Metals are described as
malleable (can be beaten into sheets) and ductile (can be pulled out into wires). This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond.

0.023 M solution of perchloric acid
kogti [31]
The original question is to find the pH and the pOH of 0.023 M of perchloric acid.

Answer:
pH = 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Explanation:
1- getting the pH:
pH can be calculated using the following rule:
pH = -log[H+]
Since the given solution is an acid, this means that [H+] is the same as the concentration of the solution.
This means that:
[H+] = 0.023
Substitute in the above equation to get the pH as follows:
pH = -log[0.023]
pH = 1.638

2- getting the pOH:
We know that:
pH + pOH = 14
We have calculated that pH = 1.638.
Substitute in the above equation to get the pOH as follows:
pOH + 1.638 = 14
pOH = 14 - 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Hope this helps :)
