Answer:

a) if the solid floats

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the determination of the volume of a solid when submerged in water requires to use an analytical balance to measure the mass, but also it is necessary that the solid sinks in order to completely displace the what in the graduated cylinder which accurately provides the volume of the solid via its scale. Therefore, a draw back is a) if the solid floats since the water is not completely displaced.

Best regards.

Answer:

the spotlight effect.

Explanation:

The spotlight effect is a tendency to think that people get noticed more often than they really do. It is an overestimation of the situation regarding the concern of getting observed. It concerns the self-confidence of an individual. For example, an individual feels that everybody in a party would notice him for a bad pair of shoes while in reality, it does not concern them.

As per the question, the overestimation of people's reaction is known as the spotlight effect.

Find the density of an object that has a mass of 5 kg and a volume of 50 cm3?

myrzilka [38]

Density = mass / volume

Mass = 5 kg

Volume = 50 cm³

d = 5 / 50

d = 0,1 kg/cm³

Calculate the percentage of each element in acetic acid, hc2h3o2, and glucose, c6h12o6.

My name is Ann [436]

Acetic acid, HC2H3O2

First, calculate for the molar mass of acetic acid as shown below.
M = 1 + 2(12) + 3(1) + 2(16) = 60 g

Then, calculating for the percentages of each element.
 Hydrogen:
P1 = ((4)(1)/60)(100%) = 6.67%

 Carbon:
P2 = ((2)(12)/60)(100%) = 40%

Oxygen
P3 =((2)(16) / 60)(100%) = 53.33%

Glucose, C6H12O6

The molar mass of glucose is as calculated below,
6(12) + 12(1) + 6(16) = 180

The percentages of the elements are as follow,
 Hydrogen:
P1 = (12/180)(100%) = 6.67%

Carbon:
P2 = ((6)(12) / 180)(100%) = 40%

Oxygen:
P3 = ((6)(16) / 180)(100%) = 53.33%

b. Since the empirical formula of the given substances are just the same and can be written as CH2O then, the percentages of each element composing them will just be equal.
