For this question, I think it is the other way around. It is true that chloroacetic acid is stronger in strength than acetic acid. Acid strength is measured as the equilibrium constant of the reaction <span>HA -----> H+ + A- 

</span><span> In acetic acid, the anion produced by dissociation is CH3-COO-; in chloroacetic acid it is CH2Cl-COO-. Comparing the two, in the first one the negative charge is taken up mostly by the two oxygen atoms. In the second there is also an electronegative chlorine atom nearby to draw more charge towards itself. Therefore, the charge is less concentrated in the chloroacetate ion than it is in the acetate ion, and, accordingly, chloroacetic acid is stronger than acetic acid. </span>

A piece of high-density Styrofoam measuring 24.0 cm by 36.0 cm by 5.0 cm floats when placed in a tub of water. When a 1.5 kg boo
zheka24 [161]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         Width of Styrofoam = 24.0 cm

          Length of Styrofoam = 36.0 cm

          Height of Styrofoam = 5.0 cm

Therefore, volume of the Styrofoam will be calculated as follows.

                  Volume = length × width × height

                                =  (36.0 × 24.0 × 5.0) cm^{3}

                                 = 4320 cm^{3}

or,                             = 4.32 \times 10^{3} cm^{3}

As Styrofoam partially sinks at 3.0 cm and total height of Styrofoam is 5.0 cm. Hence, height of Styrofoam above the water is (5.0 - 3 cm) = 2 cm.

So, volume of water displaced is as follows.

          24.0 cm × 36.0 cm × 2.0 cm

         = 1.73 \times 10^{3} cm^{3}

Hence, mass of displaced water is as follows.

                 mass = density × volume

                           = 1.00 g/cm^{3} \times 1.73 \times 10^{3} cm^{3}

                           = 1.73 \times 10^{3} g

Since, book is placed on the Styrofoam. Therefore, mass of water displaced is also equal to the following.

             Mass of water displaced = mass of book + mass of Styrofoam

                  1.73 \times 10^{3} g = 1500 g + mass of Styrofoam

                   (1730 - 1500) g = mass of Styrofoam

                   mass of Styrofoam = 230 g

Therefore, calculate the density of Styrofoam as follows.

                   Density = \frac{mass}{volume}  

                                 = \frac{230}{4.32 \times 10^{3} cm^{3}}

                                 = 53.24 \times 10^{-3} g cm^{-3}

Thus, we can conclude that the density of Styrofoam is 53.24 \times 10^{-3} g cm^{-3}.
