Answer is: density doesn't affect on weigh.
Density <span>of a substance is its </span>mass<span> per unit </span>volume, <span>density is defined as mass divided by volume (d = m/V).
</span>Weight is force<span> on the object due to </span>gravity. Weight is <span>product of the </span>mass<span> of substance and the magnitude of the local </span>gravitational acceleration (<span>W = <span>mg). Feather can have larger mass and also weight.</span></span>

<span>How iron can be more dense as a feather yet more feathers can weigh more is because density and weight are two completely different things. No matter how many feathers there are it's density never changes, it's weight is able to change but not density. Therefore the density of iron is higher no matter what but may weigh less than a group of feathers.</span>

What is the crystalline arrangement of atoms shown here?
mixer [17]

Answer: Answer:

"The arrangement of atoms or ions in a crystal " is described by the terms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic.

Explanation:

Face centred cubic system explains the crystal structure where an atom is present at each cubic corner of the crystal  and the centre of each cube face. Meaningfully, a closed packed plane where at each "face of the cube" atoms touch the alongside face diagonals.

Whereas in body centric cube system has the lattice point present at the 8 corners of  cell and an additional one at the center of the cell. Thus, both explains how the atom or ions are  placed or arranged in a crystal.

Explanation: Hope this helps :)

Ca(s) + O₂(g) + S(s) → CaSO4(s)
san4es73 [151]

The mass of Calcium required to complete this reaction is 4.008 g.

  • Law of conservation of mass states that In a closed system, mass cannot be produced or destroyed, but it can be changed from one form to another.
  • The mass of the chemical constituents before a chemical reaction is equal to the mass of the constituents after the reaction.
  • In several disciplines, including chemistry, mechanics, and fluid dynamics, the idea of mass conservation is widely applied.

In the given reaction mass of product after completion of reaction is 13.614 g that means total mass of constituents before reaction should also be 13.614.

So,

mass of Ca + mass of O₂ + mass of S = mass of CaSO4

Ca + 6.400 g + 3.206 g = 13.614 g

mass of Ca = 13.614 - 9.606 = 4.008 g

Therefore, by law of conservation of mass 4.008 g of Ca is required for the completion of the reaction.

Liquids and solids are referred to as "condensed phases" because the attractive forces cause molecules to become stationary. lea
Savatey [412]

Answer:

leave little space between the molecules.

Explanation:

Matter is made up of small particles called molecules. These molecules present in matter are arranged inside its bulk.

In liquids and solids, the molecules are arranged very close together in such a way that there is only a little space between them. This is why liquids and solids are referred to as "condensed phases".

They are quite unlike gases where there is a lot of space between gas molecules.
