Answer:

D.) ±0.01 cm?

Explanation:

Since 32.23 cm has two decimal places, the uncertainty is taken as one-half the last decimal pace.

The last decimal place is 0.03. Half of this is 0.03 cm/2 = 0.015 cm.

Since we cannot go below two decimal places, we ignore the 5 in 0.015 cm.

So, we have our uncertainty as 0.01 cm.

So, the best expression of the uncertainty in the measurement 32.23 cm is ± 0.01 cm.

So, the answer is D. which is ± 0.01 cm.

Assuming the volumes are additive, what is the [Cl−] in a solution obtained by mixing 297 mL of 0.675 M KCl and 664 mL of 0.338

Elden [556K]

Answer: The concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .....(1)

For KCl:

Molarity of KCl solution = 0.675 M

Volume of solution = 297 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.675=\frac{\text{Moles of KCl}\times 1000}{297}\\\\\text{Moles of KCl}=\frac{(0.675mol/L\times 297)}{1000}=0.200mol$

1 mole of KCl produces 1 mole of chloride ions and 1 mole of potassium ion

Moles of chloride ions in KCl = 0.200 moles

For magnesium chloride:

Molarity of magnesium chloride solution = 0.338 M

Volume of solution = 664 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.338=\frac{\text{Moles of }MgCl_2\times 1000}{664}\\\\\text{Moles of }MgCl_2=\frac{(0.338mol/L\times 664)}{1000}=0.224mol$

1 mole of magnesium chloride produces 2 moles of chloride ions and 1 mole of magnesium ion

Moles of chloride ions in magnesium chloride = $(2\times 0.224)=0.448mol$

Calculating the chloride ion concentration, we use equation 1:

Total moles of chloride ions in the solution = (0.200 + 0.448) moles = 0.648 moles

Total volume of the solution = (297 + 664) mL = 961 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=\frac{0.648mol\times 1000}{961}\\\\\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=0.674M$

Hence, the concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

If you eat 3 apples. How many apples do you have?

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Let's say we were Subtracting 3-2=? To Find the Answer we would Subtract 2 from 3 which is 1 Simple our answer is 1 But let's say the Question is 3 - 1= ? to find this answer we would subtract 1 from 3 which is 2 Let's say you were subtracting 3-3=? to do this we take 3 away from 3 now 3 is 0 so our answer is 0 so there are 3 different problems we can make with 3 we could make more but I'm just telling the basics Hope I Helped Bye :)
