Mass of metal is 8.37 g, volume of water in graduated cylinder is 20 mL. After adding the metal, water level increases to 23.1 mL. The volume of metal is equal to the increase in water level.
The increase in water level can be calculated by taking difference of final and initial level of water.
Thus,

Density of metal is defined as mass per unit volume of metal. It can be calculated as follows:

This value corresponds to the density of aluminum.
Therefore, density is 2.7 g/mL and metal is aluminum.
Hello! Your answer would be a gain of electrons and a decrease in positive charge.
Contrary to how it sounds, reduction is actually a gain of electrons. It is part of a set of reactions known as a redox reaction, reduction being a gain of electrons and oxidation being a loss.
With the gain of electrons, the element would become more negative as electrons bring with them a negative charge. Therefore, this would decrease the positive charge.
Hope this helped!
The significant figures are always:
Different from zero except there are only zeros before the point.
You can round them to the previous significant.
In scientific notation, you have one figure point two more figures.
Examples:
You have 4.21
All different from zero and only two decimals.
Those are all significant figures.
if you have 000.231555
You will shorten this to two significant figures.
Before the point, you only have zeros, so you need to keep only one of them to say its less than one.
After the point, you have a lot of figures, but you need to round this to two.
Because you have a one before the three, you'll keep the three. If you have a five or bigger number, you round it.
In this case, you'll have 0.23 with two significant figures.
Answer:
Kc = [CH₄] / [H₂]²
Kp = [CH₄] / [H₂]² * (0.082*T)^-1
Explanation:
Equilibrium constant, Kc, is defined as the ratio of the concentrations of the products over the reactants. Also, each concentration of product of reactant is powered to its coefficient.
<em>Pure solids and liquids are not taken into account in an equilibrium</em>
Thus, for the reaction:
C(s)+ 2H₂(g) ⇌ CH₄(g)
Equilibrium constant is:
<h3>Kc = [CH₄] / [H₂]²</h3>
Now, using the formula:
Kp = Kc* (RT)^Δn
<em>Where R is gas constant (0.082atmL/molK), T is the temperature of the reaction and Δn is difference in coefficients of gas products - coefficients of gas reactants (1 - 2= -1)</em>
Replacing:
<h3>Kp = [CH₄] / [H₂]² * (0.082*T)^-1</h3>

Hey there!:
Given % of Mn=59.1% means 59.1 g of Mn present in 100 g of manganese fluoride.
Molar mass of Mn= 54.938 g/mol
Moles of Mn = mass / molar mass
59.1 /54.938 => 1.07 ≈ 1 mol.
and % of F=40.9% means 40.9 g of of F present in 100 g of manganese fluoride.
Molar mass of F=18.998 g/mol
Moles of F :
40.9 / 18.999 => 2.15 mol ≈ 2 mol.
The mole ratio between Mn:F= 1 : 2
Therefore the empirical formula of manganese fluoride:
=> MnF2=Mn1F2
Hope that helps!
