Answer:
- <u>TRUE:</u> <em>Percent concentration is one of the most common and basic concentration measurement used by general public</em>
Explanation:
In chemistry there are many <em>concentration measurements</em> used to describe the mixtures. Some of them are, percent, molarity, molality, and molar fraction, among others.
Percent concentration is a popular one because it is commonly understood and used by the non specialist people, i.e. general public.
The percent concentration of a component is defined as: (amount of component in the mixture / amount of mixture) × 100.
The amounts may be measured in mass units (e.g grams) or volume units (e.g. mililiters).
For solutions, mass percent concentration is:
- % = (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100.
And voluem percen contration is:
- % = (volume of solute / volume of solution) × 100
Since percentage is used in many profesional and personal activities, most persons use it.
For example, rubbing alcohol, that everyone buys in pharmacies, is 70%; vinager, used in the food, is acetic acid at 5% - 8%.
Answer: 1709.4 Joules
Explanation:
The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Since Q = ?
M = 18.5 grams
Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C
Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C
Q = 1709.4 Joules
Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.
Answer:
The other colors of the electromagnetic spectrum are absorbed by the substance and not reflected. If you were to look at it in infared or unltraviolet it would reflect different colors than those of the visible spectrum.
Explanation:
Solution: Sentence D is a scientific statement.
Scientific statement is a statement that defines the science behind any situation. There should be any experimental result or observation to state any scientific statement. Also, the statement should be accepted by considering other scientific aspects.
Here, statement A can not be a scientific statement as different aromas of cooked food are liked by different people. Any one can find aroma of cooked food in copper better than the ceramic pot.
Thus, the statement can be proved wrong easily.
Statement B can not be a scientific statement as people can find the taste of normal water (without ice cubes) better than the ice cold water.
Statement C is not a scientific statement as there is no science behind watching baseball or ice hockey, it depends on the liking of today's people.
Statement D is a scientific statement because this can be scientifically proved.
This is a benefit I’m not sure if a negative
This strong current of warm water influences the climate of the east coast of Florida, keeping temperatures there warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer than the other southeastern states. Since the Gulf Stream also extends toward Europe, it warms western European countries as well.
