The student recorded the mass of the cup + sample incorrectly and started with 2.20 g of hydrated compound but used 2.00 g in th

e calculations. Explain how this error will affect the calculation for the number of moles of water in the hydrate? Will the final answer be artificially high or low? How do you know?

Answer:

low

Explanation:

We were informed in the question that the student had incorrectly recorded the mass of cup + sample as 2.20 g but inadvertently used 2.00 g in the calculations.

This error will cause a slight decrease in the mass of water and ultimately decrease the number of moles of water in the hydrate.

What i am saying is that the number of moles of water obtained in the calculation will be artificially low.

A cough syrup contains 5.0% ethyl alcohol, c2h5oh, by mass. if the density of the solution is 0.9928 g/ml, determine the molarit
WARRIOR [948]
To answer the question above, let us a basis of the 1000 mL or 1 L. 
                 volume = (0.9928 g/mL)(1000mL) = 992.8 g
Then, determine the mass of the alcohol by multiplying the total mass by the decimal equivalent of 5%. 
               mass of alcohol = 0.05(992.8 g) = 49.64 g
Then, determine the number of moles of ethyl alcohol by dividing the mass of alcohol by the molar mass (46 g/mol). 
                       n = 49.64 g/ (46 g/mol) = 1.08 mol
Then, divide the number of moles by the volume (our basis is 1 L)
                       molarity = 1.08 mol/ 1 L = 1.08 M

Why is it important to use scientific notation when talking about our solar system<br> and galaxies?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The main purpose for converting numbers into scientific notation is to make calculations with surpisingly large or small numbers less complicated. Since zeros are not used to place the decimal point, all of the digits in a number in scientific notation are meaningful and easier to read. Hope this helps!
