In the image above the ruler is measuring in centimeters. The blue cylinder falls somewhere between 2.7cm and 2.8cm according to the ruler. Since we can estimate the last digit I would say that the length of the cylinder is 2.76cm. Since I am estimating any number 2.72cm or 2.78cm could also be correct.
Why would 2.755 not be a correct measurement according to estimating the last digit?
Answer:
The accuracy of the measuring ruler is given as tenth of a centimetre and given that the image above the ruler is measuring in between a tenth of a centimetre, it is therefore measuring at a higher accuracy than the ruler
The least count of the vernier scale = (Main scale's smallest reading)/(Number of vernier scale divisions)
Where;
Main scale's smallest reading = 0.1 cm
Number of vernier scale divisions = 10
We have;
The least count of the vernier scale =0.1/10 = 0.01
The image above the ruler, (the vernier scale measurement) should therefore measure at hundredth of a centimetre and the value of the measurement given to two places of decimal, 2.XX, as such 2.755 which is of a level of accuracy of a thousandth for the vernier scale would not be correct.

calculate the pH of 500cm3 of 0.2mol/dm3 Ca(OH2), assume complete ionisation
Answer:
The pH of 500 cm³, 0.2 mol/dm³, Ca(OH₂) is ≈ 13.6
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
Concentration of the calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH₂) = 0.2 mol/dm³
Volume of the calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH₂) = 500 cm³
Given that the calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH₂), undergoes complete ionization in water, complete dissociation, we have;
Ca(OH₂) ⇄ Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻
Therefore, we have;
2 moles of [OH⁻] for each mole of Ca(OH₂) which gives the concentration of [OH⁻] as
[OH⁻] = 2 × 0.2 ≈ 0.4 mol/dm³
The pH is given by the formula
pH = 14 + ㏒₁₀ [OH⁻]
pH = 14 + ㏒₁₀ (0.4) = 14 - 0.3979 = 13.6021 ≈ 13.6
The pH of the 500 cm³ 0.2 mol/dm³ Ca(OH₂) ≈ 13.6.
What does the VSEPR theory describe
Answer:
The shape of a molecule based on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of its central atom
Explanation:
The improvement of the Sidgwick-Powell theory came to be known as the Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory (VSEPR). This theory approaches the determination of molecular shape from the perspective of the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.
Electron pairs on the valence shells of atoms leads to repulsion. Repulsion between two lone pairs is greater than repulsion between a lone pair and a bond pair which is also greater than repulsion between two bond pairs.
Lone pairs cause more repulsion, hence they distort molecules from the ideal shape predicted based on their electron domain geometry.
Why are ionic crystals soluble in water?
A. The covalent bonds in the ionic crystal can easily reshape to bond with the water molecules, allowing it to dissolve.
B. The water slides the layers of the ionic crystal lattice so that positive charges line up with positive charges. They repel
each other and break the crystal apart.
C. Partial charges in water molecules attract the charges in the atoms of the ionic crystal, pulling the atoms off the crystal.
D. They are not. The positive and negative charges in the ionic lattice are stronger than the partial charges in the water.
Answer:
C. Partial charges in water molecules attract the charges in the atoms of the ionic crystal, pulling the atoms off the crystal.
Explanation:
Water consists of partial positive and hydrogen ions and partial negative oxygen ions. The ionic crystals also dissociate into ions when in water.These partial charges and ability of ionic compounds to dissociate in water are the main reason why ionic crystals dissolve in water.
The partial charges in the water molecules form a strong attraction towards the charges in the atoms of ionic crystals. This then pulls the atoms from the crystals and ends up in the dissolution of the ionic crystals.
Calculate the number of molecules present in 2.50 mol H2S?
A. 1.51 x 10^24 molecules
B. 2.50 x 10^23 molecules
C. 1.5 x 10^23 molecules
One mole of H₂S gas contains 6.022 × 10²³ H₂S molecules. Hence, 2.50 mol of H₂S contains 1.50 × 10²⁴ molecules. Thus, option A is correct.
What is Avogadro number?Any substance containing 6.022 × 10²³ number of atoms is called one mole of that substance. This number is called Avogadro number. Thus, one mole every elements contains Avogadro number of atoms.
Similarly a compound is made of molecules. One mole of a compound contains 6.022 × 10²³ number of molecules. The mass of a compound with Avogadro number of molecules is called its molar mass.
As any other compound, one mole of H₂S contains 6.022 × 10²³ molecules. Therefore, the number of molecules in 2.50 moles of H₂S is :
2.50 moles × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules/mol = 1.50 × 10²⁴molecules
Hence, the number of molecules present in 2.50 moles of H₂S is 1.50 × 10²⁴.

Which of the following statements about a chemical reaction is false? Group of answer choices The phases in a chemical reaction tell us the state of the reactants and the products. An individual coefficient, with no reactant or product, in a balanced equation is meaningless. The subscripts in a balanced equation tell us the number of atoms in a molecule.
Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
Let us go through each of the options individually.
option A.
he phases in a chemical reaction tell us the state of the reactants and the products.
This is true because phases representations such as s, l , g and q tells us the state of the reactants if they are in the solid or liquid or gaseous or aqueous state of matter respectively. So this is not our answer.
option B
An individual coefficient, with no reactant or product, in a balanced equation is meaningless.
This option is correct, because in every reaction, there must be the reactant and product present.
option C
The subscripts in a balanced equation tell us the number of atoms in a molecule.
This is correct. Consider the equation below;
2H₂ + O₂ --> 2H₂O
In the reactant phase, the subscripts tells us that we have just two atoms of oxygen present.
How does antifreeze rely on colligative properties to work?
A. It causes the vapor pressure to increase and the increased outward pressure of the gasoline vapors prevents it from solidifying into ice.
B. It causes freezing point elevation which raises the temperature of the gasoline without letting it freeze.
C. It causes freezing point depression which requires the gasoline to reach a much lower temperature before freezing.
D. It causing boiling point elevation, which raises the temperature of the gasoline without letting it boil so that it can resist the cold.
WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR CORRECT!!!
It causes freezing point depression which requires the gasoline to reach a much lower temperature before freezing. Hence, option C is correct.
What is the freezing point?Whenever a solute is added to a solution/solvent, it leads to depression in the freezing point of that solution/solvent. Depression in the freezing point of a solution on the addition of a solute is a colligative property.
A colligative property is a physical property which depends upon the number of solutes added not on the nature of solutes which means it does not matter whether we are adding 1000 particles of sugar or salt in water, the depression in the freezing point will occur by the same °C. Also, the more a solute is added the more will be the depression at the freezing point.
The formula for depression at the freezing point is mentioned as under:
Δ T = K x m
where Δ T = freezing point depression;
K = cryoscopic constant;
m = molality of the solution.
For example, The freezing point of water is 0 °C but as soon as we add a 92 gm solute like NaCl (common salt) in 1000 gm of water, its freezing point will be lower to −3.72 °C.
Hence, option C is correct.

Di- Ethyl zinc is a chemical used in the library to protect books from worms, its composition is 53% Zinc, 38.9% Carbon, and 8.1% Hydrogen (At mass of Zn=65.4, C=12, H=1). Find the empirical formula of a compound
Answer:
ZnC4H10
Explanation:
The empirical formula of a compound refers to the formula that gives the simplest whole number ratio of each atoms of the elements in the compound.
The empirical formula is calculated thus:
The given percentages in the question represent the mass in grams of each element in the compound.
Zinc= 53%, C= 38.9%, H= 8.1% which represents 53g, 38.9g and 8.1g of each element respectively.
Molar Mass of Zn= 65.4 g/mol
Molar Mass of C= 12 g/mol
Molar Mass of H= 1 g/mol
Step 1: Divide the mass of each element by the molar mass given to convert to moles:
Zn= 53/65.4 = 0.81moles
C= 38.9/12 = 3.24moles
H= 8.1/1 = 8.1moles
Step 2: Divide each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated, which is 0.81moles:
Zn= 0.81/0.81 = 1
C= 3.24/0.81 = 4
H= 8.1/0.81= 10
This is the mole ratio represented in the subscript of each element in the empirical formula:
That is, Zn (1) C (4) H (10)
Empirical formula= ZnC4H10

All the simple machines make work easier to do by changing the _____ or _____ of a force. A. size; type B. work; type C. size; direction D. type; direction
Answer:
C. size; direction
Explanation:
By definition, a machine is referred to any device that makes work easier. It takes force to do work, hence, work refers to the application of force over a particular distance. A machine aims at making the work easy by changing how it is done. Simple machines, which include: levers, pulleys, inclined planes etc. all carry out the same thing, which is to make work easier, by changing the size/magnitude and direction of the applied force.
A simple machine tends to change the size of the inputted force by increasing it over a shorter distance. The machine increases the force applied better than it can be done manually e.g. a plier and nutcracker increases/changes the applied force better than it can be done with bare hands.
Also, a simple machine can achieve making work easier by changing the direction at which the force is applied. The machine applies the force on the object in an opposite direction or contrary to the way it was manually applied.

Draw diagrams to show the bonding in each of the following compounds:
a) calcium fluoride (CaF2)
Answer:
Hope it helps!!!
............
In the Lewis structure, the Ca atom donates its two valence electrons to two F atoms.
The bonding in calcium fluoride (CaF₂) involves the transfer of electrons from calcium (Ca) to fluorine (F), resulting in the formation of ionic bonds.
Each F atom gains one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration of eight electrons in its outermost energy level. The electrostatic attraction between the positively charged Ca ion (Ca²⁺) and the negatively charged F ions (F⁻) holds the compound together.
It's important to note that the diagram represents a simplified 2-dimensional representation of the compound's structure. In reality, the compound adopts a three-dimensional crystal lattice structure, with each Ca ion surrounded by eight F ions and each F ion surrounded by four Ca ions.

Answer:
+VE
Explanation:
If we look at the reaction profile pictured in the question, we can easily identify A as the enthalpy of the reaction. The enthalpy of reaction (ΔHrxn) is usually defined as the difference between the total enthalpy (heat content) of the products of a reaction and the total enthalpy (heat content) of the reactants in that reaction.
Looking at the figure, we can see that the enthalpy of products is greater than the enthalpy of reactants, hence ∆Hrxn is positive as stated in the answer above.
