Suppose a student repeats a measurement two times and then calculates the standard deviation. Because the standard deviation is

small, the student reports that their experiment was extremely precise. Is the student's conclusion appropriate?
A) No, because there were not enough measurements to use standard deviation.
B) Yes, because a small standard deviation indicates greater precision
C) Yes, because a small data set always has excellent precision
D) No, because a large standard deviation indicates greater precision

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, a small standard deviation suggests greater precision.

Explanation:

A determination of precision is a standard deviation, it is more reliable in comparison to mean deviation. The square root of the total of the squares of the deviations divided by the degree of freedom for the array of measurements is known as standard deviation.  

The precision of low standard deviation value is more as the results or observations demonstrated by the low standard deviation are more close to average.

How many grams of PH3 will be produced if 6.0 l of H2 are used?
elena-s [515]

Mass of PH3= 6.086 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

6.0 L of H2

Required

mass of PH3

Solution

Reaction

P4 + 6H2 → 4PH3

Assumed at STP ( 1 mol gas=22.4 L)

Mol of H2 for 6 L :

= 6 : 22.4 L

= 0.268

From the equation, mol PH3 :

= 4/6 x moles H2

= 4/6 x 0.268

= 0.179

Mass PH3 :

= 0.179 x 33,99758 g/mol

= 6.086 g

How many grams are in 4.5 x 10^22 molecules of water
Luden [163]

Answer:

1.35 g

Explanation:

water is h2o, so the molar mass is 1.01x2+16.00=18.02. divide 4.5 x 10^22 by 6.022 x 10^23 to get 7.5 x 10^-2 (2 sig figs). 18.02 x 7.5 x 10^-2 is 1.35 g

General Chemistry fourth edition by McQuarrie, Rock, and Gallogly. University Science Books presented by Macmillan Learning.
Helen [10]

Answer:

3.07 Cal/g

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the heat absorbed by the calorimeter

We will use the following expression.

Q = C × ΔT

where,

  • Q: heat absorbed
  • C: heat capacity of the calorimeter (37.60 kJ/K = 37.60 kJ/°C)
  • ΔT: temperature change (2.29 °C)

Q = 37.60 kJ/°C × 2.29 °C = 86.1 kJ

According to the law of conservation of energy, the heat released by the candy has the same magnitude as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter.

Step 2: Convert 86.1 kJ to Cal

We will use the conversion factor 1 Cal = 4.186 kJ.

86.1 kJ × 1 Cal/4.186 kJ = 20.6 Cal

Step 3: Calculate the number of Cal per gram of candy

20.6 Cal/6.70 g = 3.07 Cal/g
