Answer:

Mountainous roads are winding and gently sloping in order to reduce the effect of steepness which causes more downward gravitational pull to the vehicles on it. A steeper sloped road would slow the car down to a greater extent that an gently sloping one.

Answer:

1 and 2 - Physical change

3, 4, 5 and 6 - Chemical Change

Explanation:

A physical change is the conversion of one form into another. Like water is in natural state is liquid but at applying negative temperature like in a freezer, it will convert into ice which is just another form of water. At high temperature, water will convert into vapors and form steam. In all three states, water is just water in a different form. That's what a physical change is. It is a reversible process.

A chemical change is the conversion of one molecule into another form which cannot be reversed. Like burning of coal. You won't get coal after you have burnt it.

In the same experiment, there have been many physical and chemical changes.

1. Evaporation of Ethanol is a physical change as external heat is applied which separates ethanol from water in form of vapors.

2. Condensation of Ethanol is also a physical change where vapors of ethanol are being converted into liquid form.

3. Formation of carbon deposit inside the flask: This is a chemical change. As the experiment contained glucose, upon higher temperatures, glucose loses water molecules and forms carbon. Now, since we cannot convert carbon back to glucose in a simple step, therefore, it is a chemical change which cannot be reversed.

4. Formation of Carbon dioxide gas from Glucose: This is a chemical change. Carbon dioxide cannot be fixed into glucose without the help of a plant or certain chemical methods therefore it is a chemical change and cannot be reversed by normal means.

5. Burning of natural gas: It is a chemical process. Natural gas contains methane as the primary source of burning. It reacts with oxygen present in air and forms carbon dioxide and water and releases heat which is used to elevate the temperature of ethanol-water mixture to obtain purified ethanol.

6. Formation of ethanol from glucose by yeast:  It is also a chemical process, biochemical to be specific. Under the absence of air (Fermentation), yeast converts glucose to ethanol which is a chemical process because glucose has been used up and is not glucose anymore. It has been converted to ethanol.

Why does random error affects precision?​
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Thus, random error primarily affects precision. Typically, random error affects the last significant digit of a measurement. The main reasons for random error are limitations of instruments, environmental factors, and slight variations in procedure.

In a cycle of copper experiment, a student first reacts a piece of copper metal with nitric acid to produce copper(II) nitrate (
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

0.631 grams is the theoretical yield of solid copper (Cu) that can be recovered at the end of the experiment

Explanation:

The concentration of the solution is given by :

[C]=\frac{\text{Moles of compound}}{\text{Volume of solution in Liters}}

We have:

Concentration of copper (II) nitrate solution = [Cu(NO_3)_2]=2.41 M

The volume of solution = 4.12 mL

1 mL= 0.001 L

4.12 mL= 4.12\times 0.001 L= 0.00412 L

Moles of copper (II) nitrate in solution = n

2.41=\frac{n}{0.00412 L}=0.0099292 mol

Moles of copper (II) nitrate in solution = 0.0099292 mol

1 Mole of copper(II) nitrate has 1 mole of copper then 0.0099292 moles of copper(II) nitrate will have :

1\times 0.0099292 mol= 0.0099292 \text{ mol of Cu}

Mass of 0.0099292 moles of copper:

=0.0099292 mol\times 63.55 g/mol=0.63100 g\approx 0.631 g

This mass of copper present in the solution is the theoretical mass of copper present in the given copper(II) nitrate solution.

0.631 grams is the theoretical yield of solid copper (Cu) that can be recovered at the end of the experiment
