Answer:
Ionic compound are when electrons are given to another element, making one atom positive and the other negative, so they attract. Covalent compound is when both atoms share electrons with each other.
<u>Given:</u>
Calculated density values-
Aluminum = 2.7 g/cm3
Copper = 9.0 g/cm3
Iron = 7.9 g/cm3
Titanium = 4.8 g/cm3
Unknown sample mass = 9.5 g
Sample volume = 2.1 cm3
<u>To determine:</u>
The identity of the unknown sample
<u>Explanation:</u>
'Density' is a physical parameter which can be used to identify the nature of the unknown substance.
Density = Mass/Volume
For the unknown sample
Density = 9.5 g/2.1 cm3 = 4.52 g/cm3
This matches closely with the calculated density of titanium
Ans: The unknown substance is made of titanium
The answer is B. The density, or more precisely, the volumetric mass density, of a substance is its mass per unit volume.
