Interpretation:
The number of conversion factors that can be derived from the equality
Concept Introduction:
Measurement is the measure of quantity, capacity, dimensions or extent of something. Mass, length, pressure, temperature, volume, time and concentration are some common type of measurements. English system and metric system are two types of measurement systems that are in use in the United States. Measurement wise both English system and metric system are precise. There are instance where measurements from one system has to be changed to their equivalent in other system. This is called the conversion factor. These conversion factors always appear as pairs. For example 60min is same as 1hr and vice versa. So two conversion factors are possible for this equality.

- Consider the following unbalanced reaction: XNO3 (aq) + CaCl2 (aq) -> XCl (s) + Ca(NO3)2 (aq) If 30.8 g of CaCl2 produced 79.6 g of XCl, determine the identity of X. Quantify your response.arrow_forwardAnalysis was run on samples from a known CRM with 8.85% Fe. The following results for %Fe were obtained by an analyst: 8.75, 8.51, 8.25, 8.61. Which of the following statements is true assuming none of the data points are outliers? Group of answer choices Tcalc = 63.15 The analysis is not accurate at the 95% confidence interval. Tcalc = 3.03 The analysis is accurate at the 95% confidence interval. Not enough information to determine Tcalc = 63.15 The analysis is accurate at the 95% confidence interval. Tcalc = 3.03 The analysis is not accurate at the 95% confidence interval.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is a correct pairing of concepts? a. gram, metric unit of mass b. liter, metric unit of length c. meter, metric unit of volume d. no correct responsearrow_forward
