The properties of a mixture are typically averages of the properties of its components. The properties of a compound may differ dramatically from the properties of the elements that combine to produce the compound. For each process described below, state whether the material being discussed is most likely a mixture or a compound, and state whether the process is a chemical change or a physical change. a. An orange liquid is distilled, resulting in the collection of a yellow liquid and a red solid. b. A colorless, crystalline solid is decomposed, yielding a pale yellow-green gas and a soft, shiny metal. c. A cup of tea becomes sweeter as sugar is added to it.
Perform each of the following conversions. a. 8.43 \(\mathrm{cm}\) to millimeters b. \(2.41 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{cm}\) to meters c. 294.5 \(\mathrm{nm}\) to centimeters d. \(1.445 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{m}\) to kilometers e. 235.3 \(\mathrm{m}\) to millimeters f. 903.3 \(\mathrm{nm}\) to micrometers
a. How many kilograms are in 1 teragram? b. How many nanometers are in \(6.50 \times 10^{2}\) terameters? c. How many kilograms are in 25 femtograms? d. How many liters are in 8.0 cubic decimeters? e. How many microliters are in 1 milliliter? f. How many picograms are in 1 microgram?
Classify each of the following as a mixture or a pure substance. a. water b. blood c. the oceans d. iron e. brass f. uranium g. wine h. leather i. table salt Of the pure substances, which are elements and which are compounds?
Many times errors are expressed in terms of percentage. The percent error is the absolute value of the difference of the true value and the experimental value, divided by the true value, and multiplied by 100. Percent error \(=\frac{ | \text { true value }-\text { experimental value } |}{\text { true value }} \times 100\) Calculate the percent error for the following measurements. a. The density of an aluminum block determined in an experiment was 2.64 \(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} .\) (True value 2.70 \(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} . )\) b. The experimental determination of iron in iron ore was 16.48\(\% .\) (True value 16.12\(\% . )\) c. A balance measured the mass of a \(1.000-\mathrm{g}\) standard as 0.9981 \(\mathrm{g}\) .
