<span>0.504 moles First look up the atomic weight of mercury. atomic weight of mercury = 200.59 Then divide the mass of the mercury you have by it's atomic weight 101 / 200.59 = 0.503515 So you have 0.503515 moles of mercury. Round the result to 3 significant digits giving you 0.504 moles.</span>

Explain why scientists find the particulate matter of theory useful
BARSIC [14]

This idea has historical significance. The ancient Greek philosopher Democritus (born 460 BCE), who held that everything is composed of small particles moving in empty space, is credited with developing the first hypothesis we have about the microscopic universe. He had some concrete proof for this, such the fact that items like a new loaf of bread or a rose may give off a scent even when they are far from the source. Being a materialist, he thought that these odors originated from actual material particles released by the bread or the rose, rather than being purely a type of magic. He reasoned that these particles must float through the air, with some of them maybe landing in your nose where you can smell them immediately. This still makes sense in modern times. But many of us now have quite different perspectives on these "particles."

Thank you,

Eddie

18. Describe the relationship between kinetic energy and mass, and give an example of
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of an object and also directly proportional to the square of the velocity of that object:

E_k = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Notice that if we keep velocity constant and only increase the mass of a object, the kinetic energy of that object would increase, as we've already emphasized the direct relationship between the kinetic energy term and the mass term.

Let's take a simple example: assume that object 1 and object 2 are both moving at the same velocity but object 1 has a much lower mass than object 2. According to the equation, object 1 has lower kinetic energy. This object can then transform all of its kinetic energy into some other form, say, heat the ground. The heat transferred will be significantly lower than by the object 2 moving at the same velocity but having a much greater mass.

A substance placed in a container has a fixed volume and takes up the shape of the container. In which state does this substance
Tems11 [23]
The substance should be in liquid state.

First, it takes up space in the container, which leads to that it shouldn't be a solid, because solid doesn't change its shape easily.

Second, it has a fixed volume, it's difficult to compress the substance, therefore it shouldn't be gas too, as gas can be compressed easily.

Therefore we're left with liquid. And both of these given properties fits the property of liquid.
