Percent error is the difference between the measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%.
So first, we take our measured value, .299 cm, minus our known value, .225 cm.
.299 cm - .225 cm=.004 cm
Next, we divide that by our known value
Finally, multiply your answer by 100
.0177777778 x 100= 1.77777778 %
Round to three significant figures, and you're done.
=1.78 % error
Well, first we must remember that
This is because
So then
Answer:
Root mean squared velocity is different.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since we have a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at STP, which is defined as a condition whereas T = 298 K and P = 1 atm, we can infer that these gases have the same temperature, pressure, volume and moles but a different root mean squared velocity according to the following formula:
Since they both have a different molar mass (MM), nitrogen (28.02 g/mol) and oxygen (32.02 g/mol), thus we infer that nitrogen would have a higher root mean squared velocity as its molar mass is less than that of oxygen.
Best regards!
