If the true density of the urine is 1.023 g/ml what is the technician's percent error? Q3. Consider the hydrated compound potassium ferrioxalate: K3[Fe(C₂O4)3] • 3H₂O (a) Determine the molar mass (g/mol) of the hydrated compound (b) If a student heats 11.39 g of the hydrate and obtains 10.28 grams of product, what would be the experimental mass percent of water in the original compound?
Dimensional Analysis is a way of doing numerical "book-keeping" when converting quantities or performing calculations. • When converting quantities from one unit to another, conversion factors are used. Solving with Dimensional Analysis and Multiple Units: If I am in Canada where the price of gas is $1.022 USD·L1, how much will it cost me to fill up my gas tank if I travelled 125 km? • Let's also assume that my car gets an average of 30.0 miles/gallon.
To prepare a solution of KCl, you weigh out 1.5672 (± 0.0003) g and dissolve it in a volumetric flask of 250.00 (±0.50) mL in volume. Express the molarity of the solution and its uncertainty with appropriate number of significant figures. (Formula mass of KCl is 74.551 ± 0.004 g/mol)

Automobiles are often implicated as contributors to global warming because they are a source of the greenhouse gas CO2. How many pounds of CO2 would your car release in a year if it was driven 110. miles per week? Gasoline is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons. In your calculations, assume that gasoline is octane (molecular formula C8H18) and that it is burned completely to CO2 and H2O in the engine of your car. Also assume that the car averages 27.3 miles per gallon and that the density of octane is 0.703 g cm-3.
A solution is prepared by mixing 20.0 mL of 0.1 00M Fe(NO3)3 with 20.0 mL of 0.00300M KSCN and 10.0 mL of DI water. Calculate the initial concentration of SCN^- in this solution? Give answer with correct amount of significant figures.
A student calibrated a eudiometer by first recording the mass of the empty eudiometer followed by filling the eudiometer to the 50.00 mL line with deionized water at 22°C and recorded the mass. The mass of water was 49.012 g. In an experiment run at 22°C, a reading from the eudiometer of 46.78 mL corresponds to what true volume?
(Incorrect) An impure sample of hydrocarbon having a total mass of 41.0 g undergoes combustion analysis to generate 82.6 g CO₂(g) and 16.9 g H₂O(g). Assuming that the impurities do not contain carbon or hydrogen, what percentage of the initial sample is the pure hydrocarbon? Provide the numerical value of your response in decimal notation rounded to 3 significant figures. You answered: 4.58 The correct answer is: 59.5%

Nanotechnology, the field of trying to build ultrasmall structures one atom at a time, has progressed in recent years. One potential application of nanotechnology is the construction of artificial cells. The simplest cells would probably mimic red blood cells, the body's oxygen transporters. For example, nanocontainers, perhaps constructed of carbon, could be pumped full of oxygen and injected into a person's bloodstream. If the person needed additional oxygen-due to a heart attack perhaps, or ror the purpose of space travel-these containers could slowly release oxygen into the blood, allowing tissues that would otherwise die to remain alive. Suppose that the nanocontainers were cubic and had an edge length of 25 nanometers. (a) What's the volume of one nanocontainer? (Ignore the thickness of the nanocontainer's wall) (In liters) (b) Suppose that each nanocontainers could contain pure oxygen pressurized to a density of 85 g/L. How many grams of oxygen could be contained by each…
