Ice floats because of the small air particles that are inside of the ice. The fewer air particles and the ice won't float. The more and the ice will float.

If the length, width, and height of a box are 10.00 cm, 7.25 cm and 3.00 cm, respectively, what is the volume of the box in unit
Blizzard [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For a:</u> The volume of the box is 217.5 mL

<u>For b:</u> The volume of the box is 0.2175 L

<u>Explanation:</u>

The box is a type of cuboid.

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

V=lbh

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 10.00 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 7.25 cm

h = height of cuboid = 3.00 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=10.00\times 7.25\times 3.00=217.5cm^3

  • <u>For a:</u>

To convert the volume of cuboid into milliliters, we use the conversion factor:

1mL=1cm^3

So,

\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1mL}{1cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 217.5mL

Hence, the volume of the box is 217.5 mL

  • <u>For b:</u>

To convert the volume of cuboid into liters, we use the conversion factor:

1L=1000cm^3

So,

\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1L}{1000cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 0.2175L

Hence, the volume of the box is 0.2175 L

What is the molarity of 225 grams of Cu(NO2)2 in a total volume of 2.59 L?
Kay [80]

Answer:

The molarity is 0.56\frac{moles}{L}

Explanation:

In a mixture, the chemical present in the greatest amount is called a solvent, while the other components are called solutes. Then, the molarity or molar concentration is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

In other words, molarity is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The Molarity of a solution is determined by:

Molarity (M)=\frac{number of moles of solute}{Volume}

Molarity is expressed in units (\frac{moles}{liter}).

Then you must know the number of moles of Cu(NO₂)₂. For that it is necessary to know the molar mass. Being:

  • Cu: 63.54 g/mol
  • N: 14 g/mol
  • O: 16 g/mol

the molar mass of Cu(NO₂)₂ is:

Cu(NO₂)₂= 63.54 g/mol + 2*(14 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol)= 155.54 g/mol

Now the following rule of three applies: if 155.54 g are in 1 mole of the compound, 225 g in how many moles are they?

moles=\frac{225 g*1 mole}{155.54 g}

moles= 1.45

So you know:

  • number of moles of solute= 1.45 moles
  • volume=2.59 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

Molarity=\frac{1.45 moles}{2.59 L}

Molarity= 0.56\frac{moles}{L}

<u><em>The molarity is 0.56</em></u>\frac{moles}{L}<u><em></em></u>
