The answer:
the full question is as follow:
 <span>A Texas rancher wants to fence off his four-sided plot of flat land. He measures the first three sides, shown as A, B, and C in Figure below , where A = 4.90 km and θC = 15°. He then correctly calculates the length and orientation of the fourth side D. What is the magnitude and direction of vector D? 

As shown in the figure, 
A + B + C + D = 0, so to find the </span>magnitude and direction of vector D, we should follow the following method:
 D = 0 - (A + B + C) , 
let  W = - (A + B + C), so the magnitude and direction of vector D is the same of the vector W characteristics

Magnitude
 A + B + C = <span> (4.90cos7.5 - 2.48sin16 - 3.02cos15)I</span>
<span>+ (-4.9sin7.5 + 2.48cos16 + 3.02sin15)J
</span>= 1.25I +2.53J
the magnitude of W= abs value of (A + B + C) = sqrt (1.25² + 2.53²)
= 2.82
 
the direction of D can be found by using Dx and Dy value
we know that     tan<span>θo = Dx / Dy = 1.25 / 2.53 =0.49
</span>tanθo =0.49 it implies θo = arctan 0.49 = 26.02°

direction is 26.02°

Percent Yield Lab Report
Vlada [557]

Based on the data obtained from the reaction, the following conclusions can be made;

  • according to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the product was higher than the reactant because of the mass of oxygen added during the combustion.
  • the percent yield is less than 100% because of loss in mass of either reactants or products.
  • the errors could have occurred during the weighing and transfer of reactants and products
  • repeated measurements are required in order to improve accuracy

<h3>What is the percent yield of the reaction?</h3>

Equation of the reaction is given below:

  • 2 Mg + O₂ ----> 2 MgO

Trial 1

Mass of empty crucible with lid = 26.698 (g)

Mass of Mg metal, crucible, and lid  = 27.040 (g)

Mass of MgO, crucible, and lid = 27.198 (g)

Mass of metal = 27.040 - 26.698 = 0.342

Mass of MgO = 27.198 - 26.698 = 0.500

<h3>Moles of Mg used</h3>

moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

  • molar mass of Mg = 24 g

moles of Mg = 0.342/24 = 0.01425

<h3>Moles of MgO expected</h3>

Based on the equation of reaction;

moles of MgO expected = 0.01425

moles of MgO produced =  mass/molar mass

  • molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mol

moles of MgO produced = 0.500/40 = 0.0125

<h3>Percent yield</h3>
  • Percent yield = (moles of MgO produced/moles of MgO expected) * 100%

Percentage yield = 0.0125/0.01425 * 100%

Percent yield of MgO = 87.7%

Trial 2

Mass of empty crucible with lid = 26.691 (g)

Mass of Mg metal, crucible, and lid = 27.099 (g)

Mass of MgO, crucible, and lid = 27.361 (g)

Mass of metal = 27.099 - 26.691 = 0.408

Mass of MgO = 27.361 - 26.691 = 0.670

<h3>Moles of Mg used</h3>

moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

  • molar mass of Mg = 24 g

moles of Mg = 0.408/24 = 0.0170

<h3>Moles of MgO expected</h3>

Based on the equation of reaction;

moles of MgO expected = 0.0170

  • moles of MgO produced =  mass/molar mass

molar mass of MgO = 40 g/mol

moles of MgO produced = 0.670/40 = 0.01675

<h3>Percent yield</h3>
  • Percent yield = (moles of MgO produced/moles of MgO expected) * 100%

Percent yield = 0.01675/0.0170 * 100%

Percent yield of MgO = 98.5%

Average percent yield = (87.7 + 98.5)% / 2

Average percent yield = 89.0%

Based on the data obtained from the reaction, the following conclusion can be made;

  • according to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the product was higher than the reactant because of the mass of oxygen added during the combustion.
  • the percent yield is less than 100% because of loss in mass of either reactants or products.
  • the errors could have occurred during the weighing and transfer of reactants and products
  • repeated measurements are required in order to improve accuracy

An instrument that measures air pressure using a partially evacuated chamber is called a(n ________ barometer.
Jet001 [13]
The appropriate response is the Aneroid barometer. This kind of gauge has an incompletely cleared chamber that progressions shape, packing as barometrical weight increments and growing as weight declines.

I hope the answer will help you.
