From the information we have, this block of brown sugar has a volume of 8cm3

The mass of the block is 12. 9 grams.

We need to find out the density of the sugar.

For a solid material the formula for calculating density is given as:

Density = mass / volume

Therefore we simply fit in the above given values into this formula, so:

Density = 12.9 / 8

Density = 1.61

Therefore the density of the block of sugar is 1.61g/ml

sammy [17]

Answer is: thermal conductuction.
Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.
The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.

Answer:

Weathering involves the use of water and or wind to wear down the environment. The sand dunes were most likely carried by wind to form them and form its shape. Erosion most likely took away parts of the sand to make the sand dune. Deposition most likely deposited sand to the area.

A gaseous compound is 30.4 % N and 69.6% OF. A 5.25 g sample of the gas occupies a volume of 1.00 L and exerts a pressure of 958

Harman [31]

Answer:

The molecular formula = N2O4

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A gaseous compound is 30.4 % N and 69.6%

Mass of the compound = 5.25 grams

Volume of the gas = 1.00 L

Pressure of the gas = 958 mmHg = 1.26 atm

Temperature of the gas = -4 °C = 273 -4°C = 269 Kelvin

Molar mass of N = 14 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate mass of N

Mass of Nitrogen = 5.25 grams * 0.304 = 1.596 grams

Step 3: Calculate mass of O

Mass of Oxygen = 5.25 grams * 0.696 = 3.654 grams

Step 4: Calculate number of moles N

Number of moles N = Mass of N/ Molar mass of N

Moles of N = 1.596 grams / 14g/mol

Moles of N = 0.114 moles N

Step 5: Calculate moles of O

Moles O = 3.654 grams / 16 g/mol

Moles 0 = 0.2884 moles

Step 6: Calculate empirical formule

We calculate the empirical formule by dividing number of moles by the smallest number of mol

N : 0.114 / 0.114 = 1

O: 0.2284 / 0.114 = 2

Empirical formule = NO2

Step 7: Calculate number of moles of 5.25 g sample via gas law:

p*V = nRT

⇒ with p = the pressure = 1.26 atm

⇒ with v = 1.00 L

⇒ with n = the number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/ K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 269 K

number of moles n = (p*V)/(R*T)

n = (1.26*1L)/(0.08206*269)

n = 0.057 mol

Step 8: Calculate molar mass of the compound

This means 5.25 grams of the gas = 0.057 moles

So 1 mol of the compound has a molar mass of: 5.25 / 0.057 = 92.11 g/mol

Step 9: Calculate molar mass of the empirical formula NO2

N = 14 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

NO2 = 14 + 16 + 16 = 46 g/mol

The empirical formule NO2 has a molar mass of 46 g/mol

Step 10: Calculate molecular formula

92.11 / 46 = 2

This means the empirical formula should be multiplied by 2

2*(NO2) = N2O4

The molecular formula = N2O4
