Answer : (C) Hafnium is the most likely identity of the given substance.

Solution :  Given,

Mass of given substance (m) = 46.9 g

Volume of given substance (V) = 3.5 Cm^{3}

First, find the Density of given substance.

Formula used :    

Density=\frac{\text{Mass of given substance}}{\text{Voume of given substance}}

Now,put all the values in this formula, we get

Density=\frac{46.9 g}{3.5 Cm^{3} } = 13.4 g/Cm^{3}

So, we conclude that the density of given substance (13.4 g/Cm^{3}) is approximately equal to the density of Mercury and Hafnium (13.53 and 13.31 g/Cm^{3} respectively).

According to the question the substance is solid at room temperature but Mercury is liquid at room temperature. So, Mercury is not identical to the given substance.

Another element i.e, Hafnium is the element whose density is approximately equal to the given substance and also solid at room temperature. And we know that the melting point of solid is high.

So, Hafnium is the most likely element which is the identity of the given substance.

10. How many g of Cu(OH)2 can be made from 9.1 x 1025 atoms of O?
il63 [147K]
Molar mass Cu(OH)₂ = 97.561 g/mol

97.561 g Cu(OH)₂ --------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
  ? g Cu(OH)₂ -------------------- 9.1x10²⁵ atoms

mass = 9.1x10²⁵ * 97.561 / 6.02x10²³

mass = 8.87x10²⁷ / 6.02x10²³

mass = 14734.2 g

hope this helps!

How many liters of h2 gas, collected over water at an atmospheric pressure of 752 mm hg and a temperature of 21.0°c, can be made
natta225 [31]
Answer:  
The balanced equation tells us that 1 mole of Zn will produce 1 mole of H2.  
1.566 g Zn x (1 mole Zn / 65.38 g Zn) = 0.02395 moles Zn  
0.02395 moles Zn x (1 mole H2 / 1 mole Zn) = 0.02395 moles H2 produced  
Now use the ideal gas law to find the volume V.  
P = 733 mmHg x (1 atm / 760 atm) = 0.964 atm  
T = 21 C + 273 = 294 K  
PV = nRT 
V = nRT/ P = (0.02395 moles H2)(0.0821 L atm / K mole)(294 K) / (0.964 atm) = 0.600 L
