<u>Answer:</u> The weight of the box is 18,105 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pressure is defined as the amount of force exerted per unit area of surface.

Mathematically,

\text{Pressure}=\frac{\text{Force}}{\text{Area}}

We are given:

Pressure on the box = 1065N/cm^2

Force exerted / Weight of the box = ?

Area of the box = 17.0cm^2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1065N/cm^2=\frac{\text{Weight of the box}}{17.0cm^2}\\\\\text{Weight of the box}=(1065N/cm^2\times 17.0cm^2)=18,105N

Hence, the weight of the box is 18,105 N

Answer:

2Cu2S + 3O2 + 2C -------> 4Cu + 2SO2 + 2CO

Explanation:

Equation 1 should correctly be written as;

2Cu2S + 3O2-----> 2Cu2O + 2SO2

Equation 2 should be correctly written as;

2Cu2O + 2C -----> 4Cu + 2CO

The overall reaction equation is;

2Cu2S + 3O2 + 2C -------> 4Cu + 2SO2 + 2CO

Note that species that are intermediates are cancelled out .

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The false statement is: 3. Because liquid water and liquid carbon tetrachloride do not mix, neither do their vapors

Explanation:

Gas is a state of matter, that has <u>less density than liquids and solids</u>. The gaseous particles have low intermolecular forces and thus they can move freely.

It is a very <u>compressible fluid</u> that has no fixed shape. Gas occupies the whole container in which it is stored, thus taking the shape of the container. Therefore, <u>the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of the container.</u>

<u>Polar liquid like water (H₂O) and nonpolar liquid like carbon tetrachloride, are immiscible. However, in the gaseous state, their vapors form a  homogeneous mixture.</u>
