Answer:

10.9%.

Explanation:

The first thing to do in order to solve this question is to Determine the value for the volume of the the cube. This can be done by taking the cube root of the length of the cube;

The volume of the cube = (length of the cube)^3 = length × length × length = 1.72 × 1.72 × 1.72 =( 1.72)^3 = 5.09cm^3.

The next thing you do is to Determine the exponential density, the can be done by using the formula below;

The exponential density = mass/ volume = 55. 786/ 5.09 = 10.96 g/cm^3.

Therefore, the percent error = (true density of the cube - exponential density of the cube)÷ true density of the cube × 100.

Hence, the percent error = 12.30 - 10.96/12.30 × 100 = 10.9%.

Add groups to complete polyvinyl alcohol, formed by the polymerization of the following monomer. If a carbon atom contains only
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The resulting structure is:

R-CH-CH2 (OH)-CH-CH2(OH)-CH-CH2(OH)-CH-...

Explanation:

It can be said that vinyl alcohol cannot be polymerized by addition polymerization, since a very unstable radical would be formed, which is not possible. Generally, it is formed by polymerization and subsequent hydrolysis of the vinyl polyacetate. According to the exercise, the structure that results with its four units can be seen that the hydroxyl groups are found in the methylene carbons

A compound has the formula X2O3 where x is an unknown element. If the compound is 24.26% oxygen, what element does x represent?
Vinil7 [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Element X is Arsenic (Ar)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given the compound X₂O₃

The compound is 24.26% Oxygen

We are required to identify element X

<h3>Step 1: Determine the mass of Oxygen in the compound </h3>

Atomic mass of Oxygen is 16.0 g

There are three oxygen atoms in the compound

Therefore;

Mass of oxygen in the compound = 3 × 16

                                                        = 48 g

<h3>Step 2: Total mass of the compound </h3>

Total percentage = 100%

But, Oxygen in the compound  is 24.26 % and has a mass of 48 g

Therefore;

Mass of the compound = (48 g ÷ 24.26 ) × 100

                                      = 197.857 g

<h3>Step 3 mass of X in the compound </h3>

Since we know the mass of oxygen in the compound and the mass of the compound we can determine the mass of X

Mass of X in the compound = Mass of the compound - Mass of Oxygen in the compound

                                               = 197.857 g - 48 g

                                               = 149.857 g

But there are two atoms of X in the compound.

Therefore, molar mass of X = 149.857 g ÷ 2

                                             = 74.929 g

<h3>Step 4: Identity of element X</h3>

We then we need to identify the element with a molar mass of 74.929 g

Therefore, the element represented above is Arsenic which has an atomic mass of 74.92.

Thus, our compound is Ar₂O₃
