Answer:

1.8 = relative density (there are no units for relative density)

Explanation:

It displaces water equal to it's volume and gets buoyancy equal to that amount of water

2.7 - 1.2 = 1.5 N of buoyancy

density of water = 1 gm /cc

1.5 N = m (9.81)

m of water displaced = .1529 kg

152.9 cc of water will produce this buoyancy....this is the volume of the object

find mass of object 2.7 = m (9.81) shows m = .2752 kg = 272.5 gm

density = mass/ volume = 272.5 / 152.9 = 1.8 gm / cc

Relative to water (which is 1 gm / cc) the relative density is 1.8

====> it is 1.8 times denser than water and will sink when in water....

postnew [5]

Answer:

$d=2.4\ miles$

Explanation:

Given:

average walking speed, $v_w=3\ mph$

average biking speed, $v_b=12\ mph$

<u>According to given condition:</u>

$t_w=t_b+\frac{36}{60}$

where:

$t_w=$ time taken to reach the building by walking

$t_b=$ time taken to reach the building by biking

We know that,

$\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}$

so,

$\frac{d}{v_w} =\frac{d}{v_b} +\frac{36}{60}$

$\frac{d}{3}=\frac{d}{12} +\frac{3}{5}$

$d=2.4\ miles$

Ugo [173]

Question: Predicting the shape of a molecule is relatively straight forward. A molecule's shape will always be determined by the number of electron pairs around the central atom. The number of electron pair corresponds to the number of atoms that are bound to the central atom of the molecule. For example, water contains two hydrogen atom bound to one atom of oxygen, giving the molecule a linear geometry.

Suppose that the model presented by student 1 is correct. Based on the information provided, what would be the bond angle in a molecule of perchlorate ion.

Answer: Suppose that the model presented by student 1 is correct The (perchlorate ion) will be a tetrahedral shape, O-Cl-O bond angle 109.5 due to four groups of bonding electrons and no lone pairs of electrons.
