Hexane (C6H14, density = 0.766 g/cm3), perfluoro-hexane (C6F14, density = 1.669 g/cm3), and water are immiscible liquids; that is, they do not dissolve in one another. You place 10 mL of each in a graduated cylinder, along with pieces of high-density polyethylene (HDPE, density = 0.97 g/cm3), polyvinyl chloride(PVC, density = 1.36 g/cm3), and Teflon (density = 2.3 g/cm3). None of these common plastics dissolves in these liquids. Describe what you expect to see.

In order to find the density of a solution of unknown density, 10 mL of solution was drawn into a clean and dry beaker three times with a pipette and weighed and the weighing results were found to be 65.1452 g, 64.9982 g, 65.1027 g. Calculate the density of the solution and the standard deviation of the measurements, since the empty weight of the beaker is 52.2461 g.

A chemical industry discharges a waste contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE) to the city sewer system. By law, the concentration of TCE must be 1 mg/L or less. To enforce this law, the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) conducts random testing. The chief environmental engineer for the chemical company knows that the mean TCE concentration in the waste is 0.064 mg/L, and the standard deviation is 0.022 mg/L. The TCE concentration can be assumed to be a normal random variable. What is the probability that the company will fail a random test by the DEC? [In other words, the probability that a random sample will have TCE > 0.1 mg/L.] Show your work and draw a labeled sketch to show what area of the normal distribution curve you used to solve the problem. What is the probability that the company will fail two consecutive random tests? The tests can be assumed to be independent of each other. Show your work. Determine the concentration of TCE that is exceeded only 10%…
The points on the bullseye are measurements whose exact value is the center of the bullseye. Indicate the correct statement: (A). The points of target 3 have clearly less standard deviation than that of target 2. (B). Target 2 points have the worst repeatability of all. (C). The points of target 3 are a set of measurements that lead to a fairly accurate value of the variable, but the instrument cannot be considered very precise. (D). Target 4 points only have systematic errors.
