Answer:
a) Measurements have a good precision.
Explanation:
Accuracy is the proximity of the data to the value considered as real, in this situation we do not know the real value and we do not know if the data is accurate or not, so we can discard options b and d.
Now, precision is the proximity of the data obtained among themselves and that is what we can observe, so the appropriate answer is the option a.
Explanation:
This is because gas particles are free to move as they are not held in place by strong molecular forces while particles in a solid are
CIO4-=-1
CI=4O=-1
O has a 2- oxidation change so
CI+4(-2)=-1
CI+(-8)=-1
CI=-1+8=7
So the oxidation number of chlorine is 7 in this case
One thing to notice in the question is, we are asked about molecular oxygen that has formula O2 not atomic oxygen O.
As we are asked about molecular oxygen, we will answer the question in terms of number of molecules that are present in 16 grams of molecular oxygen.
To get the number of molecules present in 16 grams of O2, we will use the formula:
No. of molecules = no. of moles x Avogadro's number (NA)----- eq 1)
As we know:
The number of moles = mass/ molar mass of molecule
Here we have been given mass already, 16 grams and the molar mass of O2 is 32 grams.
Putting the values in above formula:
= 16/32
= 0.5 moles
Putting the number of moles and Avogadro's number (6.02 * 10^23) in eq 1
No. of molecules = 0.5 x 6.02 * 10^23
=3.01 x 10^23 molecules
or 301,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules
This means that 16 grams of 3.01 x 10^23 molecules of oxygen.
Hope it helps!
