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.

Reil [10]

Answer:

Myocarditis = C) Inflammation of the muscular wall of the heart.

Explanation:

Myocarditis is a condition usually caused by a virus.

It causes inflammation within the heart, generally along the muscular wall and within the middle layers.

It's definitely not a great condition. It's possible it could weaken his heart's ability to pump properly, which in turn could effect organs and cause organ failure. It'd lead to intense bouts of pain constantly, swelling, problems breathing, or even heart failure.

Feel bad for Franco.

Why is knowing the density of water important to us? Give a reasonable answer
Ahat [919]
Measuring density is very important for many different industries because the density measurement will help determine the characteristics of a material, for example, whether the material will float or sink. Knowing the density of a material helps in determining the mass and volume of a material, all of which are extremely important measurements in all industries.
