Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Depends, but in most cases, 2.

It's best to use as many digits as possible to keep it accurate.

Explanation:

This varies between teachers, as most schools go with 2 decimal places.

This is something that depends in your situation.

You technically want as many decimals as possible to keep it as accurate, but most people stick with 2.

I personally do 3, and commonly do 5 sometimes.

Describe how particles of iron (Fe) an oxygen (O2) react to how produce oxide (Fe2O3), also known as rust.
forsale [732]

Answer:

Described by a redox reaction below

Explanation:

Iron(III) oxide is an ionic compound, since it consists of a metal, iron, and a nonmetal, oxygen.

Ionic compounds are formed when metals lose their valence electrons in order to have an octet in their previous shell and donate them to nonmetal atoms, so that nonmetals fill their outer shell to have an octet.

As a result, positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) are formed. When iron reacts with oxygen, the following reaction takes place:

4 Fe (s) + 3 O_2 (g)\rightarrow 2 Fe_2O_3 (s)

This is a redox (oxidation–reduction) reaction, since we have electron loss and gain. Four iron atoms lose a total of 12 electrons to obtain a +3 charge in the final compound, while 3 oxygen molecules gain these 12 electrons to become 6 oxide anions with a -2 charge.

You have 100 mL of a solution of benzoic acid in water; the amount of benzoic acid in the solution is estimated to be about 0.30
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.00370 g

Explanation:

From the given information:

To determine the amount of acid remaining using the formula:\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{(initial \ mass \ of \ solute )_{water}} = (\dfrac{v_2}{v_1+v_2\times k_d})^n

where;

v_1 = volume of organic solvent = 20-mL

n = numbers of extractions = 4

v_2 = actual volume of water = 100-mL

k_d = distribution coefficient = 10

∴

\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30  \ g} = (\dfrac{100 \ ml}{100 \ ml +20 \ ml \times 10})^4

\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30  \ g} = (\dfrac{100 \ ml}{100 \ ml +200 \ ml})^4

\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30  \ g} = (\dfrac{1}{3})^4

\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30  \ g} = 0.012345

Thus, the final amount of acid left in the water = 0.012345 * 0.30

= 0.00370 g
