Answer:

The answer is

<h2>20 %</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 volume = 35 mg

error = 35 - 28 = 7

The percentage error is

P(\%) =  \frac{7}{35}  \times 100 \\  =  \frac{1}{5}  \times 100 \\  =  20

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

20%

Explanation:

The formula is [ |va-ve/ve| * 100% ] where e = error and n = number.

|28-35/35| * 100

|-7/35| * 100%

|-1/5| * 100%

0.2 * 100%

20%

Best of Luck!

At a certain temperature the vapor pressure of pure thiophene is measured to be . Suppose a solution is prepared by mixing of th
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

0.35 atm

Explanation:

It seems the question is incomplete. But an internet search shows me these values for the question:

" At a certain temperature the vapor pressure of pure thiophene (C₄H₄S) is measured to be 0.60 atm. Suppose a solution is prepared by mixing 137. g of thiophene and 111. g of heptane (C₇H₁₆). Calculate the partial pressure of thiophene vapor above this solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution is ideal."

Keep in mind that if the values in your question are different, your answer will be different too. <em>However the methodology will remain the same.</em>

First we <u>calculate the moles of thiophene and heptane</u>, using their molar mass:

  • 137 g thiophene ÷ 84.14 g/mol = 1.63 moles thiophene
  • 111 g heptane ÷ 100 g/mol = 1.11 moles heptane

Total number of moles = 1.63 + 1.11 = 2.74 moles

The<u> mole fraction of thiophene</u> is:

  • 1.63 / 2.74 = 0.59

Finally, the <u>partial pressure of thiophene vapor is</u>:

Partial pressure = Mole Fraction * Vapor pressure of Pure Thiophene

  • Partial Pressure = 0.59 * 0.60 atm
  • Pp = 0.35 atm

A solution is prepared by dissolving 2.61 g ethanol (C2H5OH) in 16.2 g water. What is the molality (mol/kg) of C2H5OH in the sol
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

3.50 molal

Explanation:

Molality → Moles of solute / kg of solvent.

Let's convert the solvent's mass from g to kg

16.2 g . 1kg / 1000 g = 0.0162 kg

Let's determine the moles from the solute

2.61 g . 1 mol / 46 g = 0.0567 moles

Molality → 0.0567 mol / 0.0162 kg = 3.50 m

allsm [11]

a. They are both normally found as gases in the atmosphere.  TRUE

That is correct, the oxygen and nitrogen are found in large quantities in the air around us.

b. They can be either liquids or gases. TRUE

Under certain temperatures any gas will transform into a liquid.

c.They turn from gas to liquid at the same temperature. FALSE

Oxygen it will pass into a liquid at -183 °C while nitrogen pass into a liquid at -195.8 °C.

d.They can be changed from gases to liquids by heating them. FALSE

The gases change to liquids by cooling them.
