A meniscus must be considered when making which of the following measurements?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Snezhnost [94]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

When you read a scale on the side of a container with a meniscus, such as a graduated cylinder or volumetric flask, it's important that the measurement accounts for the meniscus. Measure so that the line you are reading is even with the center of the meniscus. For water and most liquids, this is the bottom of the meniscus. For mercury, take the measurement from the top of the meniscus. In either case, you are measuring based on the center of the meniscus. For a flat meniscus, make sure the liquid is level. Usually placing the container on a lab bench does the trick.

You won't be able to take an accurate reading looking up at the liquid level or down into it. Get eye level with the meniscus. You can either pick up the glassware to bring it to your level or else bend down to take measurements in situations where you're concerned with dropping the container or spilling its contents.

Use the same method to take measurements each time so that any errors you make will be consistent.

1. What is the angular distance north or south from the earth's equator beginning at
Vlada [557]

Answer:

c. Latitude

Explanation:

The angular distance north or south from the earth's equator beginning at 0° at the equator and ending at 90° of either pole is the latitude.

The equator is a line of latitude that divided the earth into two hemispheres.

Only the equator is a great circle as a line of latitude. Others are small circles.

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

<u>3.16 liters O2</u>

Explanation:

I'll assume the C3H3 is really supposed to read C3H8, for propane.

C3H3(g) + 5 O2 (g) + 3 CO2 (g)+ 4 H20 (g)

<u>C3H</u><em><u>8</u></em><u>(g) + 5 O2 (g) + 3 CO2 (g)+ 4 H20 (g)</u>

It is unlikely that all the gases involved in this reaction will remain at STP due to the large amount of energy released, we'll assume STP since:

1)  We are told STP and no other information is given, and

2)  STP makes the problem much easier, since all gasses occupy 22.4 liters per mole of that gas.

The balanced equation tells us we need 5 moles of O2 for every 1 mole of C3H3:  a molar ratio of 5/1 (moles O2/moles C3H8).

Calculate moles C3H8 in 0.632 liters of the stuff [metric term for compound]:

  (0.632 liters)/(22.4 liters/mole) = 0.0282 moles C3H8

This means we'll need 5 times that number for the amount of O2 required.  That comes to 0.1411 moles O2.

Convert that to volume:  (0.1411 moles O2)*(22.4 liter/mole) = 3.16 liters O2

How many atoms are found in a 15.5 g sample of bismuth?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

4.47 x 10²² atoms

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Bismuth  = 15.5g

Unknown:

Number of atoms  = ?

Solution:

To find the number atoms, first solve for the number of moles in this element first.

  Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}    

  Number of moles  = \frac{15.5}{209}    = 0.074mole

So:

        1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

     0.074 mole of Bismuth will contain 0.074 x 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

                                                          = 4.47 x 10²² atoms
