    How do I calculate these Uncertainties?

    Okay, so I have this equation: F = F1 + F2 - dF1F2 Anyways, I have the uncertainties for F1 and F2, how would I go about getting the uncertainty for F? Do I just simply add the uncertainties or do I use the formula deltaF1/F1 +deltaF2/F2 = deltaF/F? Thanks for your help.

    Chemical Equilibrium and Concentration

    I tried an ICE table for a buffer solution once but it gives me the same answer as the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation anyways (which is quicker to plug in all the numbers.)

    Chemical Equilibrium and Concentration

    Thanks. How do you know when to use an ICE table in a question?

    Chemical Equilibrium and Concentration

    The reaction between hydrogen and fluorine has an equilibrium constant of 1.15x102 at a certain temperature. Given the reaction equation H2(g) + F2(g) -> 2HF(g), calculate the equilibrium concentration of HF after 3.00 mol of each component is added to a 1.500 L flask. I attempted solving it...

    Chemistry Calculating Moles in C1V1=C2V2 Reactions

    Okay, say I want to calculate the Concentration of K2SO4 with the known concentration and volumes of 2KOH. I plug both of these numbers into the C1V1=C2V2 calculation. Would I need to divide the concentration of 2KOH by 2 in the equation like I would when doing other similar equations i.e...

    Chemistry Calculating Moles in C1V1=C2V2 Reactions

    Just a quick question, when calculating C1V1 = C2V2, do I need to account for Mole Rato? Say that C1 had 1 moles required in reaction as opposed to C2 which required 2 moles, would I just multiply C2 by 1/2?

    Projectile Motion Velocity Question

    I got 0.42 (approximately) but that doesn't seem like the right technique. Any other ideas on how to tackle this question? I have tried using PE and KE to figure this out but I get the same answer.

    Projectile Motion Velocity Question

    The drawing shows a skateboarder moving at 5.4 m/s along a horizontal section of a track that is slanted upward by 48° above the horizontal at its end, which is 0.4 m above the ground. When she leaves the track, she follows the characteristic path of projectile motion. Ignoring friction and air...

    Net Charge of Fluorine Atom: Is it Possible?

    It would be the overall charge on an atom (after it has been ionised, so it would be called an "ion". So if you had 3 protons and 2 electrons, for example, it would be a +1 charge.

    Net Charge of Fluorine Atom: Is it Possible?

    When you add all the electrons, you get a new valence electron number of 5. However, now that I think about it, I did it wrong, so it's net charge would be -3 as it would want to acquire three electrons to attain a full outer shell. I am not sure if this is right though since I never...

    Ralphson-Newton Method And Interval Bisection

    I know quite well how to do these. However, most of the time, the starting points are just given to me i.e. the a and b values to starting iterating. I was just wondering if you were to find a starting point for x3-x-1 = 0, what would be the best starting point to use the Ralphson-Newton...

    Net Charge of Fluorine Atom: Is it Possible?

    This is probably a simple question but it has absolutely annoyed me for a week at University (yes, I know, I am still learning this, laugh away). I am meant to identify the atom/ion and the net charge of it. This is the information I am given: Protons: 9 Neutrons: 10 Electrons: 20...

    Domain & Range of f(x)=-√(t(1-t))

    f(x) = -√(t(1-t)) Domain: 0≤t≥1 (from Null Factor law) Range: 0≤t However, the range was wrong. The answers said that it was -0.5≤t≥0. I have no idea where the -0.5 came from. I substituted the domain values in but i didn't work. It just came out with zero. Can anyone suggest any ideas...
