Why aren't descriptive investigations repeatable?

2 answers:

8 0

In descriptive investigations, we still haven't formed any hypothesis yet so we seek information by asking question.

It's not repeatable because repeating the questions over and over again without any clue about what we want to seek is completely waste of time.

Hope this helps xox :)

Answer:

Descriptive investigations are not repeatable because they are based only on observations made at a single point in time. The results may vary at a different time. In addition, descriptive investigations do not contain variables that may indicate cause-and-effect relationships.

Boron has two isotopes, Boron 10 which has a mass of 10.0129 amu and Boron-11 with a mass of 11.0093 amu. B-10 occurs 84.74% of

podryga [215]

The average atomic mass of Boron: 10.431 amu

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Isotopes are atoms whose no-atom has the same number of protons while still having a different number of neutrons.

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

In determining the mass of an atom, as a standard is the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom whose mass is 12 amu

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% + ...

The average atomic mass of boron :

$\tt avg~mass=0.8474\times 10.0129+0.1526\times 11.0093\\\\avg~mass=10.431~amu$

A compound is found to contain 38.65 % carbon, 16.25 % hydrogen, and 45.09 % nitrogen by mass. what is the empirical formula for

iren [92.7K]

The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

So the empirical formula is:

CHN

Groups or families in the periodic table have what in common

sammy [17]

Each column is called a group. The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons.

In Lab 10 you make a stock solution of salicylic acid, and then four dilutions. The stock solution is made by diluting 5.00 ml o

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Stock solution = 1.25 *10^-3 M

Dilution 1 = 5*10^-4 M

Dilution 2= 3.75 * 10^-4 M

Dilution 3 = 2.5 *10^-4 M

Dilution 4 = 1.25 *10^-4 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The stock solution is made by diluting 5.00 ml of 1.250 x 10-2 M salicylic acid in 50.00 mL of solution.

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of the stock solution:

M1*V1 = M2*V2

⇒ with M1 = the initial concentration = 1.250 *10^-2 M

⇒ with V1 = 5 mL = 5*10^-3 L

⇒ with M2 = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with V2 = 50 mL = 50 *10^-3 L

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.250 *10^-2 * 5*10^-3 L) / 50 *10^-3

M2 = 0.00125 M = 1.25 *10^-3 M

Step 3: Calculate dilution 1

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 10 *10^-3)/(25*10^-3L)

M2 = 0.0005 M = 5*10^-4 M

Step 4: Calculate dilution 2

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 10 * 7.5*10^-3)/(25*10^-3)

M2 = 0.000375 M = 3.75 * 10^-4 M

Step 5: Calculate dilution 3

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 5*10^-3) /(25*10^-3)

M2 = 0.00025 M = 2.5 *10^-4 M

Step 6: Calculate dilution 4

M2 = (M1*V1)/V2

M2 = (1.25*10^-3 * 2.5*10^-3)/(25*10^-3)

M2 = 0.000125 M = 1.25 *10^-4 M
