Since the teacher has said to use quantitative observation, density is the easiest measurement to make. Aluminum has a density of 2.7 g/mL. Brass has a density of 8.73 g/mL. Copper has a density of 8.96 g/mL. As long as the mass and volume measurements are accurate (water displacement can be used for volume measurements), the resulting density values can be distinguished.

It may be possible to distinguish these three metals visually, based on color, but the instructions have stated to use quantitative observation.

The fifth element in group 7 in astatine would you expect it to be gas, liquid, or solid? why?
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

solid

Explanation:

Melting and boiling points of Group 7 elements State at room temperature Room temperature is usually taken as being 25°C. At this temperature, fluorine and chlorine are gases, bromine is a liquid, and iodine and astatine are solids. There is therefore a trend in state from gas to liquid to solid as you go down the group.
