That would be correct as stated.
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:- "Like dissolves like." It means, a polar compound is soluble in polar solvent and non polar compound is soluble in non polar solvent.

Mineral oil is non polar in nature as it has longest carbon chain. Hexane is also non polar solvent. Being non polar, mineral oil is soluble in hexane.

Ethanol is a polar solvent and so mineral oil is insoluble in it.

If an object has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s and a force of 58.8N what is the mass of an object ? What could the object be
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The mass of an object  is 0.6122 Kg

Explanation:

Given:

Acceleration  = 9.8 m/s

Force  = 58.8 N

To Find:

Mass of an object = ?

Solution:

We know that according to newtons 2nd law

Force is the product of the mass and acceleration

F= ma

where

F = Force

m = mass

a =  Acceleration

Substituting the values,

58.8 = m X  9.8

m= \frac{58.8}{9.8}

m = 0.6122 kg

Radium-221 has a half-life of 30 sec. How long will it take for 96% of a sample to decay?
monitta
We can calculate how long the decay by using the half-life equation. It is expressed as:

A = Ao e^-kt

<span>where A is the amount left at t years, Ao is the initial concentration, and k is a constant.
</span><span>From the half-life data, we can calculate for k.
</span>
1/2(Ao) = Ao e^-k(30)
<span>k = 0.023
</span>
0.04Ao = Ao e^0.023(t)
<span>t = 140 sec</span>
