Answer:

It is important for scientists to be repeatable so it lets them see patterns and trends in their results. This is affirmative for their work, making it stronger and better able to support their claims. This helps maintain The integrity of data.

Repeating an experiment more than once helps determine if the data was a fluke, or represents the normal case. It helps guard against jumping to conclusions without enough evidence. The number of repeats depends on many factors, including the spread of the data and the availability of resources

Taking into account the definition of dilution:

you have to use 8.23 mL of a stock solution of 7.00 M HNO₃ to prepare 0.120 L of 0.480 M HNO₃.
If you dilute 20.0 mL of the stock solution to a final volume of 0.270 L , the concentration of the diluted solution is 0.518 M.

<h3>Dilution</h3>

Dilution is the process of reducing the concentration of solute in solution, which is accomplished by simply adding more solvent to the solution at the same amount of solute.

In a dilution the amount of solute does not change, but as more solvent is added, the concentration of the solute decreases, as the volume (and weight) of the solution increases.

A dilution is mathematically expressed as:

Ci×Vi = Cf×Vf

where

Ci: initial concentration
Vi: initial volume
Cf: final concentration
Vf: final volume

<h3>Volume of stock solution</h3>

In this case, you know:

Ci= 7 M
Vi= ?
Cf= 0.480 M
Vf= 0.120 L

Replacing in the definition of dilution:

7 M× Vi= 0.480 M× 0.120 L

Solving:

Vi= (0.480 M× 0.120 L)÷ 7 M

<u><em>Vi= 0.00823 L= 8.23 mL</em></u> (being 1 L= 1000 mL)

Finally, you will need 8.23 mL of the stock solution.

<h3>Concentration of the diluted solution</h3>

In this case, you know:

Ci= 7 M assuming the stock solution is 7.00 M HNO₃
Vi= 20 mL= 0.02 L
Cf= ?
Vf= 0.270 L

Replacing in the definition of dilution:

7 M× 0.02 L= Cf× 0.270 L

Solving:

(7 M× 0.02 L)÷ 0.270 L= Cf

Finally, the concentration is 0.518 M.

The thermochemical equation for the reaction of carbon dioxide with sulfur dioxide is shown below. How can the reaction be descr

prisoha [69]

Answer: d. has high activation energy

Activation energy is the energy that a system requires to start a certain process. Also, it <u>is the minimum energy necessary for a given chemical reaction to occur</u>. For a reaction to occur between two molecules, they must collide in the correct orientation and have a minimum amount of energy equal to the activation energy.

As the molecules approach, their electron clouds repel, so energy is required for the collision to occur and therefore the reaction. The activation energy comes from the heat of the system, that is, the translational, vibrational energy, etc. of each molecule. However, if this energy is not enough, the reaction will not be spontaneous.

<u>A reaction between two molecules can be favored by supplying energy to the system.</u> In the case raised in the question, <u>energy equal to 1104 kJ is provided to the system to favor the next reaction </u>

CO2 (g) + 2SO2 (g) → CS2 (g) + 3O2 (g)

<u>Since the energy equal to 1104 kJ is included in the reactants, it can be deduced that it is the energy that is provided to the system for the reaction to occur. </u>However, from the value of this energy it can not be said whether the system is endothermic or exothermic since it is a kinetic variable and the variables of this type do not allow predicting the thermodynamic behavior of a system.

Furthermore, it can be seen that the value of this energy is considerably high, therefore the reaction described has a high activation energy.

Ammonia is a principal nitrogen fertilizer. It is prepared by the reaction between hydrogen and nitrogen. 3H2(g) + N2(g) → 2NH3(

sergey [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as:

3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃

Given parameters:

Number of moles of NH₃ = 8moles

Number of moles of H₂ = ?

Number of moles of N₂ = ?

Solution

From the balanced reaction equation, we can establish some mole ratios that would help solve the problem:

To find the number of moles of H₂;

The equation shows that:

2 moles of NH₃ were produced using 3 moles of H₂

therefore: 8 moles of NH₃ will be produced by $\frac{8 x 3}{2}$ = 12moles

So, 12 moles of hydrogen gas will react to give 8 moles of ammonia.

To find the number of moles of N₂

The equation shows that:

2 moles of NH₃ were produced from 1 mole of N₂

8 moles of NH₃ would be produced from $\frac{8 x 1}{2}$ = 4moles of Nitrogen gas

Therefore, 4moles of nitrogen gas would be produced

In the 150 years since Darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, a mountain of evidence has accumulated ... How can you know what happened millions of years ago if no one was there to see it? Evidence and observation are the building blocks of all scientific inquiry; evolutionary science is no different
