A student performs an experiment to find the percentage of water in a hydrate. He determines that the hydrate contains 22% water

Stels [109]

Answer:

A feasible error could have been the removal of the sample before all water evaporated.

Explanation:

In order to determine the percentage of water in an hydrate, an experiment that could be performed is the heating of the sample until the mass does not change. If the student heated the sample an insufficient amount of time, water will be present in the sample, thus reducing the percentage reported.

The use of phenol (carbolic acid) as a wound disinfectant was first practiced by:

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The use of phenol (carbolic acid) as a wound disinfectant was first practiced by Lister. The correct option is E

Explanation:

Phenol( carbolic acid) is an aromatic organic compound. It has the following properties:

- it's soluble in water

- it's a weak acid and

- highly reactive toward electrophilic aromatic substitution

In Medical field, phenol was first used as an antiseptic by Joseph Lister.Joseph Lister was a student at University College London under Robert Liston, later rising to the rank of Surgeon at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. He believed that patients who passed through surgery, died due to infections caused by microorganisms.He theorized that if germs could be killed or prevented, no infection would occur. Lister reasoned that a chemical could be used to destroy the micro-organisms that cause infection. He made use of the carbolic acid by soaking a clean cloth in them, and placing it over the surgical wounds of patients.

Carry out the following operations as if they were calculations of experimental results and express each answer in standard nota

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

1. $10.6\; \rm m$ (one decimal place.)

2. $0.79\; \rm g$ (two decimal places.)

3. $16.5\;\rm cm^2$ (three significant figures.)

Explanation:

The first and second expressions are additions and subtractions. When adding two numbers, the accuracy of the result is given by the number of decimal places in it. The result should have as many decimal places as the input with the least number of decimal places.

For example, in the first expression:

$5.6792\;\rm m$ has four decimal places.
$0.6\; \rm m$ has only one decimal place.
$4.33\; \rm m$ has two decimal places.

Therefore, the result should be rounded to one decimal place. Note that these units are compatible for addition, since they are all the same. The result should have the same unit (that is: $\rm m$ .)

Therefore:

$\rm 5.6792\; m + 0.6\; m + 4.33\; m \approx 10.6\; \rm m$ . (Rounded to one decimal place.)

Similarly:

$\rm 3.70\; \rm g$ has two decimal places.
$2.9133\; \rm g$ has four decimal places.

Therefore, the result should be rounded to two decimal places. Its unit should be $\rm g$ (same as the unit of the two inputs.)

$\rm 3.70\; g - 2.9133\; g \approx 0.79\; \rm g$ . (Rounded to two decimal places.)

When multiplying two numbers, the accuracy of the result should be based on the number of significant figures in it. The result should have as many significant figures as the input with the least number of significant figures. In this expression:

$4.51\; \rm cm$ has three significant figures.
$3.6666\; \rm cm$ has five significant figures.

Therefore, the result should have only three significant figures.

The unit of the result is supposed to be the product of the units of the input. In this expression, that unit will be $\rm cm \cdot cm$ , which is occasionally written as $\rm cm^2$ .

$\rm 4.51 \; cm \times 3.6666 \; cm \approx 16.5\; \rm cm^2$ . (Rounded to three significant figures.)
