a. neither the subjects nor the researchers can bias the results.
b. the researchers cannot replace the placebo with the the real treatment for their favorite subjects.
c. the subjects are not irritated by the fact that they are not receiving the real treatment.

A. Neither the subjects nor the researchers can bias the results.

Explanation:

As described, a double- blind study is one in which the researcher and his study does not know the person receiving the actual treatment.

Researchers can be bias in their studies as they seek to establish and fine tune results in the way the best favors them. A double-blind study helps to bridge this gap to prevent bias that might be introduced into an experimental set up or while interpreting results.

Answer from: pencil8184

The correct answer is A. Neither the subjects nor the researchers can bias the results.

Explanation:

In regular research studies, the subjects or researchers can manipulate the results or bias these, this in the case of the researches occurs when they manipulate the results of the study based on their interests, prejudices, etc. Also, subjects can manipulate consciously or unconsciously the results if they know whether they are in the group with the treatment or the placebo. However, if neither the subjects nor the researchers know about sho is receiving the treatment of the placebo as it occurs in a double-blind study, they will be more objective and would not manipulate the study or bias the results. Thus, one value of this kind of study is "Neither the subjects nor the researchers can bias the results".

The third choice .. (:

Answer from: Quest

answer : third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

explanation :

let us write down the given equations

equation 1 : $4x (s) + 3o_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) h rxn = -600 kj/mol$

equation 2 : $2x (s) + 3cl_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2xcl_{3} (s) h rxn = -800 kj/mol$

equation 3 : $4xcl_{3} (s) + 3o_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) + 6cl_(2} h rxn = -200 kj/mol$

let us use hess's law to find out which 2 equations can be added to get the third equation.

let us reverse equation 2 and multiply it by 2. the new equation that we get is,

equation 4 : $4xcl_{3} (s) \rightarrow 4x (s) + 6cl_{2} ( h rxn = (+800) \times 2 kj/mol$

let us add equation 1 & 4

$4x (s) + 3o_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) h rxn = -600 kj/mol$

$4xcl_{3} (s) \rightarrow 4x (s) + 6cl_{2} ( h rxn = (+1600) kj/mol$

$4xcl_{3} )s) + 3o_{2} \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) + 6cl_{2} (g) h rxn = (+1000) kj/mol$

the above equation is similar to equation 3 but has different value for dhrxn.

therefore third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

Hannah is writing a report on how albedo affects the global climate. she’s proofreading her passage for any factual errors. which sentence must hannah correct before submitting her report? earth receives energy from the sun. this energy drives many of the processes on earth, including its climate. some part of this energy is reflected by earth’s surface. we use the term albedo to describe the reflected energy. albedo of an object is the ratio of the reflected radiation to the total radiation reaching the object. a value of 0 means no energy is absorbed by the object, whereas a value of 1 means that all of the energy is absorbed. in this way, the albedo of an object can influence earth’s atmospheric temperature.
