Answer:
The importance of significant figures
As stated before, it is important within the science fields that you are not more precise or accurate than the least accurate or precise number. In science, it is generally agreed upon that the last number digit in any figure is filled with uncertainty.
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Data:</u>
a) m = 18 kg
b) T₁ = 285 K
c) T₂ = 318 K
d) Q = 267.3 kJ
e) S = ?
<u>2) Principles and equations</u>
The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed to increase the temperature of certain amount (gram, kg, or moles, depending on the definition or units) of the substance in 1 ° C or 1 K.
The mathematical relation between the specific heat and the heat energy absorbed is:
Where,
- Q is the heat absorbed,
- S is the specific heat, and
- ΔT is the temperature increase (T₂ - T₁)
<u>3) Solution:</u>
<u>a) Substitute the data into the equation:</u>
- 267.3 kJ = 18 kg × S × (318 K - 285 K)
<u>b) Solve for S and compute:</u>
- S = 267.3 kJ / (18 kg × 33 K) = 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K)
The options have not units, but I notice that the first answer is 1,000 times the answer I obtained, so I will make a conversion of units.
<u>c) Convert to J /( kg . k):</u>
- 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K) × 1,000 J / kJ = 450 J / (kg . K)
Now we can see that the option A is is the answer, assuming the units.
Reaction of dissociation: Ag₂SO₄ → 2Ag⁺ + SO₄²⁻.
m(Ag₂SO₄) = 4 g.
V(Ag₂SO₄) = 1 l.
n(Ag₂SO₄) = m(Ag₂SO₄) ÷ M(Ag₂SO₄).
n(Ag₂SO₄) = 4 g ÷ 311,8 g/mol.
n(Ag₂SO₄) = 0,0128 mol.
n(Ag⁺) = 2 · 0,0128 mol = 0,0256 mol.
n(Ag₂SO₄) = n(SO₄²⁻) = 0,0128 mol.
c(Ag⁺) = n ÷ V = 0,0256 mol ÷ 1 l = 0,0256 mol/l.
Ksp = c(Ag⁺)² · c(SO₄²⁻).
Ksp = (0,0256 mol/l)² · 0,0128 mol/l.
Ksp = 8,3·10⁻⁶.
Basically all it is a nucleus splitting into smaller fragments and these fragments are almost equal to half of the original mass
