Answer : The correct option is, (B) Hydrochloric acid(HCl)

Explanation :

Rust is an iron oxide, which is formed by the reaction of iron with oxygen in the presence of water.

As we know that the rust is an iron oxide (base) which is removed by an acid.

As per given options, the acid used to remove the rust from the metal is hydrochloric acid and not sulfuric acid because sulfuric acid is an oxidizing agent which oxidizes the metal more.

While the other options, ammonia and sodium hydroxide are a base.

Hence, hydrochloric acid is used to remove rust from metal.

Rank the following meteorites in terms of their age, from youngest to oldest:1) a meteorite containing 500 238U isotopes and 100
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When 238U which is radioactive turns into 206Pb , it becomes stable and no further disintegration is done . Hence in the initial period ratio of 238U undecayed and 206Pb formed  will be very high because no of atoms of 238U in the beginning will be very high. Gradually number of 238U undecayed will go down and number of 206Pb formed will go up . In this way the ratio of 238U and 206Pb in the mixture will gradually reduce to be equal to one or even less than one .

In the given option we shall calculate their raio

1 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 5

2 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 4

3 )ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 1

4 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 20

5 )ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 3

lowest ratio is 1 , hence this sample will be oldest.

Ranking from youngest to oldest

4 , 1 , 2 , 5 , 3 .

An engineer weighs a sample of mercury (ρ = 13.6 × 103 kg/m3 ) and finds that the weight of the sample is 6.0 n. what is the sam
Amanda [17]
Given:
ρ = 13.6 x 10³ kg/m³, density of mercury
W = 6.0 N, weight of the mercury sample
g = 9.81 m/s², acceleration due to gravity.

Let V =  the volume of the sample.
Then
W = ρVg
or
V =  W/(ρg)
   = (6.0 N)/[(13.6 x 10³ kg/m³)*(9.81 m/s²)]
   = 4.4972 x 10⁻⁵ m³

Answer: The volume is 44.972 x 10⁻⁶ m³

a man carries a hand bag by hanging on his hand and moves horizontally where the bag does not move up or down. What is the work
Savatey [412]

The work done by the man is the product of his applied force and the displacement of the bag and the man gets tired because his internal energy has be converted to work.

<h3>What is work done by the man?</h3>

The work done by the man is the product of his applied force and the displacement of the bag.

<h3>Why the man gets tired</h3>

The man gets tired because his internal energy has be used to do work on the bag.

Thus, the work done by the man is the product of his applied force and the displacement of the bag and the man gets tired because his internal energy has be converted to work.
