Explanation:

<h2>(a).</h2>

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question

mass of metal = 14 g

volume = 2.98 mL = 2.98 cm³

It's density is

density =  \frac{14}{2.98}  \\  = 4.69798657...

We have the answer as

4.70 g/cm³

<h2>(b).</h2>

The metal is not copper since it's density is less than that of copper.

Hope this helps you

Two samples of a compound containing elements a and b are decomposed. the first sample produces 15 g of a and 35 g of
Alborosie

According to law of definite proportion, for a compound, elements always combine in fixed ratio by mass.

The formula of compound remains the same, let it be a_{x}b_{y} where, a and b are two different elements.

Since, the ratio of mass remains the same , calculate the ratio of masses of element a and b in both cases

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{35}=\frac{10}{y}

rearranging,

y=\frac{10\times 35}{15}=23.3

Thus, mass of b produced will be 23.3 g.

what is the maximum amount of moles of P2O5 that can theoretically be made from 136 g of P4 and excess oxygen
zhuklara [117]
We are given with
136 g P4
excess oxygen

The complete combustion reaction is
P4 + 5O2 => 2P2O5
Converting the amount of P4 to moles
136/123.9 = 1.098 moles

Using stoichiometry
moles P2O5 = 1.098 x 2 = 2.195 moles P2O5

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

carbon dioxide CO₂

Explanation:

Each gas has a characteristic boiling point. You can separate a random sample of gases by gradually cooling the sample until each component gas liquifies. Some compounds, such as CO₂ never liquify. Instead, they turn directly into solids.

What mass of H2SO4 is contained in 60.00 mL of a 5.85 M solution of sulfuric acid
strojnjashka [21]

First, we have to calculate the number of moles of H2SO4 in the solution:

V=60 mL = 0.06 L

c=5.85 mol/L

n=V×c=0.06×5.85=0.351 mol

Then we need to find the molar mass of H2SO4:

2×Ar(H) + Ar(S) + 4×Ar(O) =

=2 + 32 + 64 = 98 g/mol

Finally, we need to find the mass of H2SO4:

m=0.351 × 98 = 34.398 g
