Describe at least two ways that a researcher can minimize experimental errors in an investigation.

1 answer:

8 0

Experimental errors can be of two kinds: human error and analytical error. Analytical error can be corrected easily. You just have to use instruments that are of high precision. For example, instead of using the platform balance, use the analytical balance which displays 4 decimal places to be highly accurate. For the human error, this is subjective. The only way to correct human error is to be more meticulous on your data measurements.

Llana [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of $K_p$ for the given chemical reaction is 0.1415

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure is defined as the ratio of partial pressures of the products and the reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_p$

For a general chemical reaction:

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

The expression for $K_p$ is written as:

$K_p=\frac{p_{C}^cp_{D}^d}{p_{A}^ap_{B}^b}$

For the given chemical equation:

$H_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HCl(g)$

The expression for $K_p$ for the following equation is:

$K_p=\frac{(p_{HCl})^2}{(p_{H_2)}(p_{Cl_2})}$

We are given:

$p_{HCl}=1.418atm\\p_{H_2}=4.06atm\\p_{Cl_2}=3.5atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_p=\frac{(1.418)^2}{(4.06)\times (3.5)}\\\\K_p=0.1415$

The value of $K_p$ for the given chemical reaction is 0.1415

What is a by-product of a nuclear power plant?

Mariana [72]

Answer:

There are four categories of byproduct material: Radioactive material that results from the fissioning, or splitting apart, of enriched uranium or plutonium in nuclear reactors. Examples include cobalt-60, cesium-137 and iridium-192. Tailings or waste produced by processing uranium or thorium from ore.
