The tongue depressor will float on water  because its density is less than that of water.

<h3>When do substances sink or float in a liquid?</h3>

Substance will either float or sink in a liquid depending on the comparative densities of the substance and the liquid.

A substance will float in a liquid if it is less dense than the liquid.

A substance will sink in a liquid if it is denser than the liquid.

The density of the tongue depressor = 4.54/6.78 = 0.67 g/cm³

The density of water is 1  g/cm³.

Therefore, the tongue depressor will float on water.

In conclusion, the density of substances determines whether thy float or sink in water.

To draw a Lewis structure for a
liq [111]

40 electrons

Explanation:

The N for silicon tetrachloride, SiCl₄ is 40 electrons. The needed electrons that would be used to complete the lewis structure of the compound is actually 40 electrons. This number of electron will help the compound attain a noble configuration.

  • The compound SiCl₄ is a covalent one. Here, there is sharing of electrons between two atoms.
  • In drawing the electron dot formula, one must take into account the Available electrons and the Needed electrons.
  • The Available electrons are sum of the valence electrons that can be accessed for the bonding. Si has 4 valence electrons, Cl has 7 valence electrons this makes a total of 4 + 7(4 atoms of chlorine), 32 available electrons.
  • But to make a complete octet like that of noble gases, each atom most have 8 complete outer most electrons. This is the needed number of electrons. Since there are 5 atoms i.e 4 atoms of chlorine and 1 atom of Silicon, the needed electrons will be 5x8 = 40 electrons.

1,4-Pentadiene has a AHhydro = -254 kJ/mol while trans-1,3-pentadiene has a AHhydra = -226 kJ/mol. Explain this difference in he
julsineya [31]

Answer:

trans-1,3-pentadiene is more stable than 1,4-pentadiene due to presence of a conjugated double bond.

Explanation:

Here, \Delta H_{hydro}=H(hydrogenated pdt.)-H(diene)

H(hydrogenated pdt.) is same for both 1,4-pentadiene and 1,3-pentadiene as they both produce pentane after hydrogenation

H(diene) depends on stability of diene.

More stable a diene, lesser will be it's H(diene) value (more neagtive).

trans-1,3-pentadiene is more stable than 1,4-pentadiene due to presence of a conjugated double bond.

Hence, \Delta H_{hydro} is higher (less negative) for trans-1,3-pentadiene

Which of the following is NOT true regarding Rutherford's Gold Foil experiment?
erastova [34]

Answer:

The area around the nucleus must be of low mass.

Explanation:

Rutherford`s experiment showed that there are some positive charges in the center of the atoms, and because they are all together, they will give a great mass to the atom.

It was quite different from Thomson`s experiment, in which it was thought that the negative charges were mixed with the positive charges, around the atom (like a Pudding Model). In Rutherford`s experiment, because the direction of beta particles, it was the prediction of the positive nucleus.

Hope this info is useful.
