Density of any substance can be measured using the following rule:
density = mass / volume

Since in this question, the volume of mercury is equal to the volume of water but still the mass of mercury is greater than the mass of water. 
Therefore, by substituting in the density equation, we will conclude that mercury is higher density than water.

The answer is:
<span>Mercury is denser than water</span>

Answer:

9.39 × 10²² molecules

Explanation:

We can find the moles of gases (n) using the ideal gas equation.

P . V = n . R . T

where,

P is the pressure (standard pressure = 1 atm)

V is the volume

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature (standard temperature = 273.15 K)

n=\frac{P.V}{R.T} =\frac{1atm.3.50L}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).273.15K} =0.156mol

There are 6.02 × 10²³ molecules in 1 mol (Avogadro's number). Then,

0.156mol.\frac{6.02\times10^{23}molecules}{mol} =9.39\times10^{22}molecules

How many moles are in a mass of 800.0 g of magnesium?
qaws [65]

Answer:

32.92 moles of Mg

Explanation:

To convert grams to moles (Or vice versa) of any chemical compound we need to use the molar mass of the substance (That is, how many grams weighs 1 mole of the chemical).

The magnesium, Mg, has a molar mass of 24.305g/mol. That means in 800.0g of Mg you have:

800.0g * (1mol / 24.305g) =

<h3>32.92 moles of Mg</h3>
