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>

When electrons are filling energy levels, the lowest energy sublevels are occupied first. This is ____________.
Nimfa-mama [501]

When electrons are filling energy levels, the lowest energy sublevels are occupied first. This is Hund's rule.

Hund's rules state that:

Every orbital in a sublevel has to be singularly occupied before any other orbital is able to be doubly occupied.

All of the electrons in single occupied orbitals have to have the same spin to maximize the total spin.

What is the mass of 22.4 L of H2 at STP?
Vanyuwa [196]

A. 1.01 is the right answer

Since

The formula is Pv= nRT

P=1 atm

V= 22.4 L

N= x

r= 0.0821

t = 273 k (bc it’s standard temperature)

So (1)(22.4)=(x)(0.0821)(273)

X= 1.001
