Question
part 1
Which of the following is a best practice in weighing solid samples?
-
Use weighing paper, a watch glass, a beaker, or some other container to measure mass of your solid samples.
-
Do not return the mass settings to zero mark; let the next user tare it for you.
-
Place chemicals directly on the balance pan.
-
For different trials of an experiment, use multiple balances for your measurements

- Super fine 40-gauge copper wire has a diameter of only 0.080 mm and weighs only 44.5 g/km. Suppose a spool of 40-gauge wire weighs 624. g less after some wire is pulled off to wind a magnet. How could you calculate how much wire was used? Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression. Also, be sure your answer includes all the correct unit symbols. length of wire x10arrow_forward3. When a piece of metal weighing 108 g is submerged in water the volume changes from 36.9 mL to 49.2 mL. Calculate the density of this metal. 4. The accepted value for the density of a certain metal is 6.81 g/cm³ . Calculate the percent error in a laboratory measurement that gives a density value of 6.6 g/cm³ . Express this result in the proper number of significant figures.arrow_forwardPART 3 A Volumetric Flask + A С — ALI50 SOA A 50-mL volumetric flask measures a volume of 50.00 mL. In this experiment, we want to show that this is true. 50.00 mL is the actual volume measured by this volumetric flask. EXPERIMENT: The mass of an empty volumetric flask is measured. Then water is added to the volumetric flask and the meniscus is adjusted to be at the correct level. Then the mass of the volumetric flask and the water is measured. Finally, the temperature of the water in the volumetric flask is measured. RESULTS: Mass of empty volumetric flask = 37.04 g Mass of volumetric flask and water = 86.83 g Temperature of the water in the volumetric flask = 23°C 4 Densities of water at different temperatures: Density of Water at Different Temperatures (g/cm) Temp, °C Density Temp, °C Density Temp, °C Density 18 0.99862 21 0.99802 24 0.99733 19 0.99844 22 0.99780 25 0.99708 20 0.99823 23 0.99757 26 0.99681 (a) Using the mass of the water measured and the density of the water,…arrow_forward
- Measurement and Matter Adding or subtracting and multiplying or dividing measurements 0/3 B A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of potassium chloride. The concentration of a solution equals the mass of what's dissolved divided by the total volume of the solution. Here's how the student prepared the solution: The label on the graduated cylinder says: empty weight: 1.500 g She put some solid potassium chloride into the graduated cylinder and weighed it. With the potassium chloride added, the cylinder weighed 40.22 g. She added water to the graduated cylinder and dissolved the potassium chloride completely. Then she read the total volume of the solution from the markings on the graduated cylinder. The total volume of the solution was 172.08 mL. What concentration should the student write down in her lab notebook? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

As a chemistry student, you learnt that finding density of the object would be cheap, easy, and reliable method to find the identity. Explain in detail, how would you find the identity of this metal using density? When you explain the method, you show all the steps you will follow (measuring, recording, calculations,.etc) in the laboratory. For example, if you are using a measuring cylinder for taking volume, you must draw diagrams to show every aspects including scale on the cylinder, meniscus, reading,.etcarrow_forward✓ 13 water. 14 A chemist makes 920. mL of zinc nitrate ✓ 15 mol L ✓ 16 0 17 x10 ✓ 18 Calculate the concentration of the chemist's working solution.
