What instrument would be best to determine how different oxidation states affect the mass of a carbon based compound?
a balance
What is a 6 letter word that holds liquids to be heated or stirred?
" beaker " and " vessel " would be suitable.
Where can one find a balance beam scale?
The best place to find a balance beam scale would be on Amazon. They offer reviews from other purchasers which can help one determine which scale is best.
What unit of measurement does a graduated beaker use?
For this you would have to look at the beaker. Most modern beakers measure in litres and millilitres.
Would condensation form on the outside of a beaker full of hot water why or why not?
No. The glass of the beaker, since it is hot, not cold, would not cause the ambient moisture to coalesce on the glass
What piece of lab equipment would you use to determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
A beaker. Simply fill the beaker with a known quantity of liquid. Drop the object into the beaker, and measure the difference in the fluid levels.
What does it mean to zero an electronic balance?
Usually you add a container to the balance then zero it. Then when you add something to the container e.g. a liquid or solid then when you place the container back on the balance the reading shows you how much you have added. Saves having to work out how much you added by weighing the container, weighing the container plus contents and then subtracting. Removes one possible source of error i.e. incorrect subtraction of values. Also faster/easier when trying to measure out a specific amount of a substance.
How would you find the mass of a paper clip?
You would determine its mass using a mass balance.
What equipment would you use to determine the mass of a tomato?
You can use a simple balance.
Which instruments would best help the scientist determine the results of his study?
a balance
What instrument would be best to determine how different oxidation states affect the mass of a carbon based compound?
a balance
What instrument would most accurately determine the mass of a toy car?
a ruler and pan balance
What is the left arm pan of a platform balance used for?
The left pan of the balance can be used for counter weights. Another use might be to put an identical dish or beaker. Since taring can be error prone it would be better to counter balance.
If you were holding a beaker in which an exothermic reaction just took place would the beaker feel hot or cold?
the beaker would feel hot
Which tool would scientists use to determine the mass of a solid?
a laboratory balance OR an analytical balance OR a spring scale OR any other kind of scale
What instrument would most accurately and precisely determine the mass of a toy car?
Triple beam balance
Which instrument would most accurately and precisely determine the mass of a toy car?
A triple-beam balance scale
