A balance was tested against a standard calibration mass with a certified value of 200.002 g and produced the following readings

in grams: 195.587, 195.586, 195.588, 195.587, 195.589. The performance of this balance is best described as:

Answer:

Precise but not accurate.

Explanation:

We can tell the performance of the balance is precise, because the repeated measurements give values close to one another.

However, the performance of the balance is not accurate, as the mean value of the repeated measurements (195.587) is not close to the value considered as true (in this case the standard calibration mass with a certified value of 200.002 g).

So if there is 16 protons and 16 neutrons what would be the charge right now?​
sveta [45]

Answer:

16

Explanation:

Protons have a positive net charge,

Neutrons being neutral don't have a net charge.

Each proton is one extra net charge if you have 16 of them and the neutrons don't affect your net charge you will have 16.

What makes slime, slime?
Naya [18.7K]
Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.

What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.

Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.


The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.


Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.

Is an apple a pure substance or a mixture?
guajiro [1.7K]
An apple would be a mixture. While a mixture is a combination of elements and substances, a pure substance acts as an element itself, therefore, having the properties of only THAT certain element.

If 4.168 kJ of heat is added to a calorimeter containing 75.40 g of water, the temperature of the water and the calorimeter incr
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The value of  the heat capacity of the Calorimeter  C_c = 54.4 \frac{J}{c}

Explanation:

Given data

Heat added Q = 4.168 KJ = 4168 J

Mass of water m_w = 75.40 gm

Temperature change = ΔT = 35.82 - 24.58 = 11.24 ° c

From the given condition

Q = m_w C_w ΔT + C_c ΔT

Put all the values in above equation we get

4168 = 75.70 × 4.18 × 11.24 +  C_c × 11.24

611.37 =  C_c × 11.24

C_c = 54.4 \frac{J}{c}

This is the value of  the heat capacity of the Calorimeter.
