A fuel tank holds 22.3 gallons of gasoline. If the density is 0.8206 g/mL, what is the mass in kilograms of gasoline in a full t

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

$m=69.3kg$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the density is computed by dividing the mass of the substance by its occupied volume (d=m/V), we first need to realize that 0.8206 g/mL is the same to 0.8206 kg/L, which means we first need to compute the volume in L:

$V=22.3gal*\frac{3.78541L}{1gal}=84.415L$

Then, solving for the mass in d=m/V, we get m=d*V and therefore the mass of gasoline in that full tank turns out:

$m=0.8206g/L*84.415L\\\\m=69.3kg$

Best regards!

A sailor on a trans-Pacific solo voyage notices one day that if he puts 735.mL of fresh water into a plastic cup weighing 25.0g,

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Amount of salt in 1 L seawater = 34 g

Explanation:

According to Archimedes' principle, mass of freshwater and cup = mass of equal volume of seawater

mass of freshwater = density * volume

1 cm³ = 1 mL

mass of freshwater = 0.999 g/cm³ * 735 cm³ = 734.265 g

mass of freshwater + cup = 734.265 + 25 = 759.265 g

Therefore, mass of equal volume of seawater = 759.265 g

Volume of seawater displaced = 735 mL = 0.735 L (assuming the cup volume is negligible)

1 liter = 1000 cm³ = 1000 mL;

Density of seawater = mass / volume

Density of seawater = 759.265 g / 0.735 L = 1033.01 g/L

Density of freshwater in g/L = 0.999 g/ (1/1000) L = 999 g/L

mass of 1 Liter seawater = 1033.01 g

mass of 1 Liter freshwater = 999 g

mass of salt dissolved in 1 L of seawater = 1033.01 g - 999 g = 34.01 g

Therefore, amount of salt in 1 L seawater = 34 g

Which of the following is true? Covalent bonds are strong intermolecular forces. Covalent bonds are weak intramolecular forces.

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

They are strong intermolecular forces

Explanation:

Covalent forces are very strong intermolecular forces. In fact, we can say they are the strongest. This is because several big and giant molecules have covalent bonds holding their molecules together. A good example of this is the buckministerfullerence molecule which contains carbon atom to the order of 60 carbon atoms. It is a very giant molecule and it is covalent bond that is holding the molecules together

The strongest substance in the world is diamond. It is so strong that no other substance can cut it asides another diamond. As strong as it is, the molecule is held together by very strong intermolecular forces of covalent bonds which confers the strength it has on it

Why have we not drilled or mined deeper into earth ??

alexdok [17]

<span>Scientists have determined that the center of the earth is 6371 km below the surface. But how has this been determined? Many people might answer that question by saying scientists can drill into the Earth with machines. However, the drilling rigs that scientists use can only drill about 20 km in the Earth which is not very deep! In other words, we can only drill into upper part of the crust of the earth. Extremely high temperatures and pressures within the Earth make drilling into it very difficult</span>
