Answer:

Accuracy and precision are alike only in the fact that they both refer to the quality of measurement, but they are very different indicators of measurement. Accuracy is the degree of closeness to true value. Precision is the degree to which an instrument or process will repeat the same value

2CH2(g) + 50 (g) → 400/(g) + 2 H2O(g)
Nadusha1986 [10]

168.96 g of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Explanation:

The chemical reaction representing the combustion of acetylene:

2 C₂H₂ (g) + 5 O₂ (g)→ 4 CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g)

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of acetylene (C₂H₂) = 50 / 26 = 1.92 moles

Taking in account the stoichiometry of the chemical reaction, we devise the following reasoning:

if       2 moles of acetylene (C₂H₂) produces 4 moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

then 1.92 moles of acetylene (C₂H₂) produces X moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

X = (1.92 × 4) / 2 = 3.84 moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of carbon dioxide (CO₂) = 3.84 × 44 = 168.96 g

After undergoing alpha decay, an atom of radium-226 becomes
Zanzabum
The answer is b. radon-222. The alpha decay means that it will emit an alpha particle when decays. The alpha particle has two protons and two neutrons. So Radium(88) minus two protons will become Radon(86). And the atomic mass will become 226-4=222.

A plate moves 200 m in 10,000 years. What is its rate in cm/year?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2 cm/year</h2>

Explanation:

To find the rate in cm/year we must first convert 200 m into cm

1 m = 100 cm

if 1 m = 100 cm

Then 200 m = 200 × 100 = 20 ,000 cm

So the rate is

<h2>\frac{20000}{10000}</h2>

<u>Reduce the fraction with 10,000</u>

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 cm/year</h3>

Hope this helps you
