Explain two measurements consistent or contradictory

Reference no: EM13563338

A student measures the volume of water in a beaker with the smallest divisions of 10 mL as 73 mL. A second student pours this volume into a graduated cylinder with divisions of 1 mL and reports the volume to be 72.2 mL. Are these two measurements consistent or contradictory? Explain.

Explain the cloud temperature as it passes over : A cloud bank moving across the ocean at an altitude of 2000m encounters a coastal mountain range. As it rises to a height of 3500m to pass over the mountains, it undergoes an adiabatic expansion.

Define the atmosphere slowly oxidizes hydrocarbons : The atmosphere slowly oxidizes hydrocarbons in a number of steps that eventually convert the hydrocarbon into carbon dioxide and water. The overall reactions of a number of such steps for methane gas is as follows

Define whether the salts is acidic basic or neutral : Predict whether the following salts will be acidic basic or neutral when dissolved in water and answer why. If the solution is basic or acidic write a balanced net ionic equation for it.

Evaluate what is the average density of the fish : The average density of a fish can be found by first weighingit in air and then finding the apparent weight of the fish as ithangs completely immersed in water

Explain two measurements consistent or contradictory : A second student pours this volume into a graduated cylinder with divisions of 1 mL and reports the volume to be 72.2 mL. Are these two measurements consistent or contradictory

Determine what was the original temperature : A 20 g block of aluminum is at 370 degrees C after 1,130calories have been transferred to it. What was the original temperature

Evaluate the final temperature and the final pressure : One mole of an ideal gas expands reversibly and adiabatically from an initial temperature of 35.0 degrees C and a volume of 10.0 L to a final volume of 40.0 L. Calculate the final temperature, the final pressure, delta U and w. Assume Cp = 20.28 J..

What would be the new temperature of the gas : An isolated container holding 30 g of hydrogen gas is at 25degrees C. If 1,000 calories were transferred to the gas, what would be the new temperature of the gas

State enthalpy of vaporization for water : Given that the enthalpy of vaporization for water at its normal boiling point is 40.69 kJ/mol, calculate q, w, and delta U for vaporizing 5.00 mol at 100 degrees C in an open container at 1.00 atm.
