In order to determine the mass of lead, Pb, that would have an identical volume as 20.1 g of mercury, Hg, we first get the equivalent volume of 20.1 g of mercury. This can be done by using the given density of mercury which is equal to 13.6 g/cm^3. This is shown in the following equation:

20.1 g Hg/ 13.6g/cm^3 = 1.4779 cm^3 of Hg

Consequently, we use this obtained volume which is the target volume for lead. Again, we make use of the density of the substance, in this case, lead has a density of 11.4 g/cm^3. The resulting equation is then:

11.4 g/cm^3 x 1.4779 cm^3 = 16.8485 g of Pb

Thus, the amount of lead that has an identical volume as 20.1 g of mercury is 16.8485 g Pb.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of lead is 16.872 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate mass of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}      ......(1)

  • <u>For Mercury:</u>

Density of mercury = 13.6g/cm^3

Mass of mercury = 20.1 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

13.6g/cm^3=\frac{20.1g}{\text{Volume of mercury}}\\\\\text{Volume of mercury}=1.48cm^3

The volume of mercury is 1.48cm^3 which is equal to the lead sample.

  • <u>For lead:</u>

We are given:

Density of lead = 11.4g/cm^3

Volume of lead = 1.48cm^3

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

11.4g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of lead}}{1.48cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of lead}=16.872g

Hence, the mass of lead is 16.872 g

A green laser pointer emits light with a wavelength of 542 nm. What is the frequency of this light?
ehidna [41]
As we know that wavelength and frequency is inversely proportional to each other. Greater the wavelength smaller the frequency and vice versa.
 
Solution:


The relation between wavelength and frequency is as follow,

υ = c / λ

where
            υ = frequency = ?
            c = velocity of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹
            λ = wavenumber = 542 nm = 542 × 10⁻⁹ m
Putting the given values,
    
            υ = 3.0 × 10⁸ ms⁻¹ / 542 × 10⁻⁹ m
Result:
            υ = 5.53 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Which statement is true regarding methane and ammonia?
sukhopar [10]
The options for given question are as follow,

1) Methane molecules show hydrogen bonding. 
<span>2) Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>3) Methane has stronger hydrogen bonding than ammonia. </span>
<span>4) Both the compounds do not show hydrogen bonding. </span>
<span>5) Both the compounds have strong hydrogen bonding.
</span>
Answer:
            Correct answer is Option-2 (Ammonia molecules show hydrogen bonding).

Explanation:
                   Hydrogen bond interactions are formed when a partial positive hydrogen atom attached to most electronegative atom of one molecule interacts with the partial negative most electronegative element of another molecule. So, in Ammonia hydrogen gets partial positive charge as nitrogen is highly electronegative. While the C-H bond in Methane is non-polar and fails to form hydrogen bond interactions.
