This is a tricky question. All that matters are ratios of percentages, not percentages themselves. So no one should directly compare 27.2 with 42.9. We must and shall compare the ratios (27.2 to 72.8) and (42.9 to 57.1).
Take them both down to 1 to and see what happens.
Working out the formulas knowing atomic masses is a bit beside the point; this is how people first DISCOVERED the idea of atomic mass.
A
Carbon Oxygen
27.2g 72.8g (100-27.2)
Moles 27.2/12 72.8/16
2.27 4.55
Ratio 1 2
Do the same with the other
Answer:
They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion.
Explanation:
Soil minerals form the basis of soil. They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion. Water, wind, temperature change, gravity, chemical interaction, living organisms and pressure differences all help break down parent material.
Density = mass /volume of the body. mass = 10.88 g, volume of the liquid displaced= 49.4-43.5=5.9 ml.
density = 10.88/5.9=1.844 g/ml~1.84 g/ml
The volume displaced is exactly the same as that of the body (The Eureka fro Archimedes!)
