The correct answer is exactly 750 g.

Since the mass of board is 750 g, the mass of the pile of sawdust after the whole board is ground down is 750 g.

This is according to the Law of conservation of mass. According to this law, matter can neither be created nor destroyed by any physical transformations or chemical reactions. In any chemical reaction the mass of the products is equal to the mass of the reactants.

Here the board undergoes a physical transformations from being a whole board to a pile of sawdust. Thus according to the Law of conservation of mass, the mass of the whole board will be equal to the mass of a pile of sawdust.

Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms.

Which of the following statements is false? Check all that apply. Gases are far more compressible than liquids The volume occupi

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 less density than liquids and solids. The gaseous particles have low intermolecular forces and thus they can move freely.

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

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