Answer:

Solar radiation is radiant energy emitted by the sun from a nuclear fusion reaction that creates electromagnetic energy. About half of the radiation is in the visible short-wave part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The other half is mostly in the near-infrared part, with some in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum.

keep in mind that between 4-7, there could be #1 in front of the main name. for example with #4: 3,4-dimethyl-1- hexene. this honestly depends on the professor how he/she likes it. It is not necessary because if the number is not specified, it is assumed is #1

students used a balance and a graduated cylinder to collect the data shown in table 7. calculate the density of the sample. if t

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Percentage error = 1.88 %

Solution:

Data Given:

Mass of Sample = 20.46 g

Volume of Sample = 43.0 mL - 40.0 mL = 3.0 mL

Formula Used:

Density = Mass / Volume

Putting values,

Density = 20.46 g / 3.0 mL

Density = 6.82 g.mL⁻¹

Percentage Error:

Experimental Value = 6.82 g.mL⁻¹

Accepted Value = 6.95 g.mL⁻¹

= 6.82 g.mL⁻¹ / 6.95 g.mL⁻¹ × 100 = 98.12 %

Percentage Error = 100 % - 98.12 %

Percentage error = 1.88 %

If volumes are additive and 253 mL of 0.19 M potassium bromide is mixed with 441 mL of a potassium dichromate solution to give a

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The concentration of the Potassium Dichromate solution is 0.611 M

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand that in the final solution we'll have potassium ions coming from KBr and also K2Cr2O7, so we state the dissociation equations of both compounds:

KBr (aq) → K+ (aq) + Br- (aq)

K2Cr2O7 (aq) → 2K+ (aq) + Cr2O7 2- (aq)

According to these balanced equations when 1 mole of KBr dissociates, it generates 1 mole of potassium ions. Following the same thought, when 1 mole of K2Cr2O7 dissociates, we obtain 2 moles of potassium ions instead.

Having said that, we calculate the moles of potassium ions coming from the KBr solution:

0.19 M KBr: this means that we have 0.19 moles of KBr in 1000 mL solution. So:

1000 mL solution ----- 0.19 moles of KBr

253 mL solution ----- x = 0.04807 moles of KBr

As we said before, 1 mole of KBr will contribute with 1 mole of K+, so at the moment we have 0.04807 moles of K+.

Now, we are told that the final concentration of K+ is 0.846 M. This means we have 0.846 moles of K+ in 1000 mL solution. Considering that volumes are additive, we calculate the amount of K+ moles we have in the final volume solution (441 mL + 253 mL = 694 mL):

1000 mL solution ----- 0.846 moles K+

694 mL solution ----- x = 0.587124 moles K+

This is the final quantity of potassium ion moles we have present once we mixed the KBr and K2Cr2O7 solutions. Because we already know the amount of K+ moles that were added with the KBr solution (0.04807 moles), we can calculate the contribution corresponding to K2Cr2O7:

0.587124 final K+ moles - 0.04807 K+ moles from KBr = 0.539054 K+ moles from K2Cr2O7

If we go back and take a look a the chemical reactions, we can see that 1 mole of K2Cr2O7 dissociates into 2 moles of K+ ions, so:

2 K+ moles ----- 1 K2Cr2O7 mole

0.539054 K+ moles ---- x = 0.269527 K2Cr2O7 moles

Now this quantity of potassium dichromate moles came from the respective solution, that is 441 mL, so we calculate the amount of them that would be present in 1000 mL to determine de molar concentration:

441 mL ----- 0.269527 K2Cr2O7 moles

1000 mL ----- x = 0.6112 K2Cr2O7 moles = 0.6112 M

Explain how sodium and calcium react with water. explain with equations

Reaction of sodium with water

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal may well become so hot that it catches fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour. The reaction is slower than that of potassium (immediately below sodium in the periodic table), but faster than that of lithium (immediately above sodium in the periodic table).

2Na(s) + 2H2O → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

Sophie [7]

The independent variable would be the variable in the research that is being manipulated by the researcher. In this case, it would be temperature in the cage as it is what is being manipulated and changed in the research design. The dependent variable would be the variable that is being studied so, for this case, it would be the length and the weight of the mice. The constants are the factors that might affect the dependent variable but is held constant or the same by the researcher throughout the experiment. These are the size of the cage, amount of food and the exercise wheel. The flaw that the scientist would be studying the length of the mice since I don't think the temperature has any effect on it. And base from he results, the change in lengths are not conclusive.
