if we did not use an excess of the BaCl2 solution it would decrease the mass percentage of sulfate in the unknown sample.
The net precipitation equation would be.
Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → BaSO4(s)
If BaCl2 (Ba2+) is not taken in excess then the precipitation would not be completed as some of the sulfate ions would still be remaining in the solution. This would decrease the mass percentage of sulfate in the unknown sample.
If some tiny pieces of filter paper still remained mixed with the precipitate(BaSO4) then the mass of sulfate would increase and it gives a high mass percentage of the sulfate.
mass percentage of sulfate = (mass of sulfate/mass of sample)*100

1) deep trenches
2) active volcanoes
3) arcs of islands along the tectonic boundaries
4) in some cases, mountain ranges
Answer:
I think the answers D. Hope this helps you.
Explanation:
2 liters may be 1.5 to 1.9 rounded up to 2 or 2.1 or 2.4 rounded down to 2.
2 - 1.5 = 0.5
percent error = (absolute error / quantity) * 100
percent error = 0.5/2 * 100% = 0.25 * 100% = 25%
Choice C. 25%.
