Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 89FP
The data Lavoisier obtained in the experiment described on page 35 are as follows:
Before heating: glass vessel + tin + air
= 13 onces, 2 gros, 2.50 grains
After heating; glassvcssel + tin calx + remaining air
= 13 onces, 2 gros, 2.50 grains
How closely did Levoisier's results conform to the law of conservation of mass? (1livre = 16 onces 1 once = 8 gros 1 gros = 72 grans. In modern terms, 1 livre = 30.59 g.)

The mass of magnesium used in this experiment is critical to determining the moles of
hydrogen gas generated. The analytical balances used in Chemistry 1A labs are very sensitive
to point that touching materials with your fingers before measuring them can affect the
measurements. The balances are sensitive enough to detect dirt and oils from your fingers
transferred to the magnesium. Would your experimental value of R increase or decrease if
the mass of magnesium measured was artificially high due the touching it with your hands?
Increase
Decrease
14. lons formed in a mass spectrometer will be separated by magnetic deflection. The radius of
curvature of the ion's path depends on the ratio of m/z. (m is the mass and z is the charge of
the ion). Which of the following ions will bend the most?
A
lon A with m = 10 and z = +1
Đ’
lon B with m = 20 and z= +1
C
lon C with m = 10 and z = +2
lon D with m = 20 and z = +2
2.) Suppose you're attempting to measure the density of a liquid that is highly volatile (it evaporates
quickly). If you first measure the volume and then several minutes later you measure the mass of the
liquid will the measured density be higher than the true value, lower than the true value, or the true
density of the liquid. [It helps to understand this problem with the density equation.]
