Answer:

i) During washing

ii) During Measurement

Explanation:

The two possible steps are :

i) During washing : during the washing method the residue may be not completely dried out and this residue ( water) will add up to the final product ( copper yield ) and this kind of error is called human error.

ii) During measurement : If the weighing instrument is faulty there might be addition in value of the final copper yield which will see the final yield value > 100% . this error occurs when the initial value and final value is been weighed

If a position time graph has a constant slope, what can you infer about the acceleration?

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Acceleration is zero.

Explanation:

The slope of a position time graph gives the velocity of the body.

If the slope is constant means the velocity is constant.

Now, acceleration is the measure of the change in velocity of a body over a given time interval.

So, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the change in velocity of the body.

If there is no change in velocity, this means that the acceleration of the body is zero.

Here, the slope is a constant implying that the velocity is a constant. So, there is no change in velocity. This implies that the acceleration is zero for the body in the given time interval.

Thus, if a position time graph has a constant slope, one can infer that the acceleration is zero.

Is ninhydren test positive for protein?

lyudmila [28]

The Ninhydrin test is not effective to detect high molecular weight proteins as the steric hindrance limits the ninhydrin from reaching the α-amino groups.

A solution may contain Ag+, Pb2+, and/or Hg22+. A white precipitate forms when 6 M HCl is added. The precipitate is partially so

omeli [17]

Answer:

All three are present

Explanation:

Addition of 6 M HCl would form precipitates of all the three cations, since the chlorides of these cations are insoluble: $AgCl (s), PbCl_2 (s), Hg_2Cl_2 (s)$ .

Firstly, the solid produced is partially soluble in hot water. Remember that out of all the three solids, lead(II) choride is the most soluble. It would easily completely dissolve in hot water. This is how we separate it from the remaining precipitate. Therefore, we know that we have lead(II) cations present, as the two remaining chlorides are insoluble even at high temperatures.
Secondly, addition of liquid ammonia would form a precipitate with silver: $AgCl (s) + 2 NH_3 (aq) + H_2O (l)\rightarrow [Ag(NH_3)_2]OH (s) + HCl (aq)$ ; Silver hydroxide at higher temperatures decomposes into black silver oxide: $2 [Ag(NH_3)_2]OH (s)\rightarrow Ag_2O (s) + H_2O (l) + 4 NH_3 (g)$ .
Thirdly, we also know we have $Hg_2^{2+}$ in the mixture, since addition of potassium chromate produces a yellow precipitate: $Hg_2^{2+} (aq) + CrO_4^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow Hg_2CrO_4 (s)$ . The latter precipitate is yellow.
