means and standard deviation!!?
the population mean is 200cm for the unknown amount of rods in the population
the pop sd is 4cm
the ONE sample of 4 rods is randomly taken from the population, and the one sample of 8 rods is taken from the population, which one should be closer to the population mean and standard deviation?
I know the central limit theorem (pop sd /sqrt n), but isn't this the standard deviation of the sample means, not the standard deviation of one sample itself?
Any help on explaining this would be great
1 AnswerMathematics10 years agoChemistry; acid base stoichiometry help!!!?
I need some help on these questions
9x10^4L of rainwater with an average hydrogen ion concentration of 1x10^-4g/L was collected and stored in a galvanised iron tank. After several months the pH of the water was found to be 7. Assuming the zinc was the only material in contact with the water, calculate the
a) mass of zinc that would of dissolved
b) the concentration of zinc ion, in mol/L, in the rainwater
Sweat is a solution containing mainly sodium,potassium, chloride ions. The concentration of hydrogen ions in sweat= 1x10^-5g/L. Calculate the mass of solid calcium hydroxide required to neutralise 10mL of sweat
a) Calculate the concentration in mol/L, of a sodium carbonate solution produced from 250g sodium carbonate 10 water dissolved into 2L of water to produce 2.1L of solution
b) If sodium carbonate neutralized hydrochloric acid, calculate the mass of sodium chloride produced if all of the 2.1L sodium carbonate solution reacted with the acid
To determine the purity of limestone, mostly calcium carbonate, an analyst measured the mass of a small sample of limestone to be 2.59g. He placed enough HCl into a beaker to completely dissolve the limestone sample. The beaker and acid had a mass of 110.61g. He then placed the limestone sample into the acid and allowed it to completely dissolve. After the reaction was completed the mass of the beaker and it s contents was found to be 112.22g. Calculate the percentage purity of the limestone.
Any help is great, thx

1 AnswerChemistry10 years agoChemistry; acid base help!!!!?
I know how to do most of acid base questions but i'm having trouble with these; in the problems use pH=-log(H+)
200mL of a 0.1mol/L HCl solution is added to 198mL of a 0.1mol/L NaOH solution. Calculate the hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion concentrations in the resulting solution.
0.25g of sodium hydroxide are added to 115mL of a nitric acid solution of pH 1.50. Determine the pH of the resulting solution. Assume volume does not change on adding the solid.
10.6g of anhydrous sodium carbonate are dissolved in 560mL of a 0.54mol/L HCl solution
a) Calculate the pH of the final solution, assuming volume does not change on adding the solid
b) What volume of water must be added to give a solution having pH 1

2 AnswersChemistry10 years agoTransformations of e^x help?!!!?
How do u do these questions?
The point (1,e) lies on the graph e^x. State the transformations made upon y=e^x for the function to become y=-e^(2x-3)+2, and give the exact co ordinates of the transformation of the point (1,e)
And if a function is transformed to y=e^(3x+3) from y=e^x does this mean that it has done a dilation of 1/3 to the x axis and has translated 1 unit left?
Any help would be great, thx
