Considering the definition of percentage by mass, the mass percentage of CaCO₃ is 68.59%.

<h3>What is mass percentage</h3>

The percentage by mass expresses the concentration and indicates the amount of mass of solute present in 100 grams of solution.

In other words, the percentage by mass of a component of the solution is defined as the ratio of the mass of the solute to the mass of the solution, expressed as a percentage.

The percentage by mass is calculated as the mass of the solute divided by the mass of the solution, the result of which is multiplied by 100 to give a percentage. This is:

mass percentage=\frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution}x100

<h3>Mass percentage of CaCO₃</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • mass of CaCO₃: 2.62 grams
  • mass of limestone: 3.82 grams

Replacing in the definition of mass percentage:

mass percentage=\frac{2.62 grams}{3.82 grams}x100

<u><em>mass percentage= 68.59 %</em></u>

Finally, the mass percentage of CaCO₃ is 68.59%.

What is the name for this type of reproduction?​
mario62 [17]

Answer:

----------------------------------------------

Reproduction is defined as the production of individuals of the same species, that is the next generation of the species.

----------------------------------------------

There are basically two types of reproduction - asexual and sexual.

----------------------------------------------

Asexual reproduction involves only one parent and the offspring is

genetically similar to the parent ...

----------------------------------------------

The different types of asexual reproduction are fission, budding, fragmentation, spore formation and vegetative propagation.

----------------------------------------------

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves a complex life cycle in which a gamete (such as a sperm or egg cell) with a single set of chromosomes combines with another to produce a organism composed of cells with two sets of chromosomes .

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction which does not involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes. The offspring that arise by asexual reproduction from a single cell or from a multicellular organism inherit the genes of that parent.

The mass of a solid substance is 21.112 g. If the volume of the solid substance is 19.5 cm3, calculate the density of the substa
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

ρ = 1.08 g/cm³

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of the substance (m): 21.112 g

Volume of the substance (V): 19.5 cm³

Step 2: Calculate the density of the substance

The density (ρ) of a substance is equal to its mass divided by its volume.

ρ = m / V

ρ = 21.112 g / 19.5 cm³

ρ = 1.08 g/cm³

The density of the substance is 1.08 g/cm³.

If a large marshmallow has a volume of 2.50 i n 3 and density of 0.242 g/c m 3 , how much would it weigh in grams? 1 i n 3 =16.3
Illusion [34]

Density of a substance is defined as the mass of the substance divided by the volume.

Density of the substance= 0.242 g cm⁻³  

volume of the substance= 2.50 in³  

As, 1 in³= 16.39 cm³  

So, 2.50 in³= 16.39× 2.50 cm³=40.97 cm³

As ,  

Density=\frac{mass}{volume}  

Mass=volume ×Density

Mass=40.97 × 0.242

Mass=9.916 g.

Classify each of the following as a physical or chemical change.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

a). ice melting is a physical change

b). paper burning is a chemical change

c). metal rusting is a chemical change

d). gas pressure increasing is a physical change

e). liquid evaporating is a physical change

f). food digesting is a chemical change

Explanation:

For all the above, In a physical change, the appearance or form of the matter changes but the kind of matter in the substance does not. However, in a chemical change, the kind of matter changes, and at least one new substance with new properties is formed.

a). ice melting - only form is changed

b). paper burning - By burning, ash is produced, which is different from paper

c). metal rusting - By rusting, the metal is oxidized and hence chemically changed

d). gas pressure increasing - only form is changed

e). liquid evaporating - only form is changed

f). food digesting - food is broken down into simpler molecules
