The correct answer to your question is

C. Buried underground

Radioactive waste is being buried underground because we have no where else to put it, and it must be away from us because it is harmful.

Gold has a density of 1,200 lb./ft. What is the density of gold in g/em? For conversion factors use I lb. 453.6 g, and l inch-2.

Jlenok [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The density of gold in $g/cm^3$ is $19.22g/cm^3$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Density is defined as the ratio of mass of the object and volume of the object. Mathematically,

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass of the object}}{\text{Volume of the object}}$

We are given:

Density of gold = $1200lb/ft^3$

Using conversion factors:

1 lb = 453.6 g

1 feet = 12 inches

1 inch = 2.54 cm

Converting given quantity into $g/cm^3$ , we get:

$\Rightarrow (\frac{1200lb}{ft^3})\times (\frac{453.6g}{1lb})\times (\frac{1ft}{12inch})^3\times (\frac{1inch}{2.54cm})^3\\\\\Rightarrow 19.22g/cm^3$

Hence, the density of gold in $g/cm^3$ is $19.22g/cm^3$

When an ionic compound such as sodium chloride (NaCl) is placed in water, the component atoms of the NaCl crystal dissociate int

sesenic [268]

Answer:

<em>The solution expected to contain the greatest number of solute particles is: </em><u>A) 1 L of 1.0 M NaCl</u>

Explanation:

The number of particles is calculated as:

a) <u>For Ionic compounds</u>:

molarity × volume in liters × number of ions per unit formula.

b) <u>For covalent compounds</u>:

molarity × volume in liters

The difference is a factor which is the number of particles resulting from the dissociation or ionization of one mole of the ionic compound.

So, calling M the molarity, you can write:

# of particles = M × liters × factor

This table show the calculations for the four solutions from the list of choices:

Compound kind Particles in solution Molarity # of particles

(dissociation) (M) in 1 liter

A) NaCl ionic ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻ 1.0 1.0 × 1 × 2 = 2

B) NaCl ionic ions Na⁺ anc Cl⁻ 0.5 0.5 × 1 × 2 = 1

C) Glucose covalent molecules 0.5 0.5 × 1 × 1 = 0.5

D) Glucose covalent molecules 1.0 1.0 × 1 × 1 = 1

Therefore, the rank in increasing number of particles is for the list of solutions given is: C < B = D < A, which means that the solution expected to contain the greatest number of solute particles is the solution A) 1 L of 1.0 M NaCl.

An atom of elements x has one more shell of electrons than an atom of beryllium,but h are s one less valence electron then beryl

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Element X is sodium.

If there is one more shell of electrons, then this means it is one period below.

Since there is one less valence electron, it is one group to the left.

If the volume and moles of a container are held constant, the temperature of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure.

noname [10]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Assuming that the gas is ideal

Therefore the gas obeys the ideal gas equation

<h3>Ideal gas equation is </h3><h3>P × V = n × R × T</h3>

where

P is the pressure exerted by the gas

V is the volume occupied by the gas

n is the number of moles of the gas

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the temperature of the gas

Here volume of the gas will be the volume of the container

Given the volume of the container and number of moles of the gas are constant

As R will also be constant, the pressure of the gas will be directly proportional to the temperature of the gas

P ∝ T

∴ Pressure will be directly proportional to the temperature
