Bananas Foster is an example of a dessert that is flambéed. A Bananas Foster label states the accepted number of Calories to be

only 300 calories, but a calorimetry experiment measured there to be 318 calories. Calculate the percent error.

WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

6.00%

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Accepted value for the number of calories in a Bananas Foster: 300 calories

Measured value for the number of calories in a Bananas Foster: 318 calories

Step 2: Calculate the percent error in the measure

We will use the following expression.

%error = |accepted value - experimental value|/ accepted value × 100%

%error = |300 cal - 318 cal|/ 300 cal × 100% = 6.00%

What might two Group 16 non metals likely form?
just olya [345]
When the compound is composed of two non-metals, the the bond that joins them together is called covlent bond. Otherwise, when the compound is composed of a metal and a non-metal then the bond existing between them is called ionic bond. Answer then to this problem is A. covalent bond

When 2.3 × 10^3 g of CaCO3 are heated, the actual yield of CaO is 1.09 × 10^3g. What is
iren [92.7K]

The percent yield : 4. 84.58%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

CaCO₃ ⇄ CaO+CO₂

mass CaCO₃ = 2.3 × 10³ g

mol CaCO₃ (MW=100.0869 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{2.3\times 10^3}{100,0869}\\\\mol=22.98

From the equation, mol CaCO₃ : CaO = 1 : 1, so mol CaO=22.98

mass CaO(MW=56.0774 g/mol)⇒ (theoretical) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=22.98\times 56,0774\\\\mass=1288.659~g

The percent yield :

\tt \%yield=\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\\%yield=\dfrac{1090}{1288.659}\times 100\%\\\\\5yield=84.58\%

When Mrs. Green describes the physical properties of matter she said that physical properties often concern changes in state. On
dedylja [7]

Properties of matter can be broadly classified into two categories:

-Physical properties, these usually involve a change in the state of matter

-Chemical properties. these involve a change in the chemical composition of matter.

Now, physical properties can be further classified as:

Extensive: these depend on the amount of the substance, eg: mass, volume  

Intensive: these do not depend on the amount of the substance eg: density, color, melting point, boiling point

A physical property that does not describe a change in state is color. For example: copper sulfate is a compound which is a blue in color. Thus, color provides information which describes the appearance of matter. In contrast, properties like melting or boiling point suggests a change in the state of the substance.
