Q: A railroad spike weighs $$1.1\ \mathrm{kg}. $$How many moles of iron atoms does it contain? (Molar mass of Fe = $$55.845\ \mathrm{g/mol})$$

$$\frac{1.1\ \mathrm{kg} \times 1000\ \mathrm{g/kg}}{55.845\ \mathrm{g/mol}} = 20\ \mathrm{mol}$$

Question 1

Which of the following best describes the difference between precision and accuracy in scientific measurements?

Accepted Answer

Precision refers to how close measured values are to each other, while accuracy refers to how close measured values are to the true value.

Question 2

A granite block has a mass of 78 g. If the density of granite is $$2.6\ \mathrm{g/cm^3$}$$, what is the volume of the block in $$\mathrm{cm^3$}$$?
