Answer:
A. It would float with about 80% of the cube below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.
Explanation:
The choice that best describes what happens to cube of the given density value is that it would float with about 80% of the cube would be below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.
Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. The more mass a body has relative to volume, the great it's density. In short, density is directly proportional to mass and inversely related to volume.
The density of water is 1g/mL
If the density of the cube were to be the same with that of water, the substance will just mix up with water .
Here the density is less than that of water.
The density is 0.2g/mL
Therefore, 20% will stay afloat and 80% will be below the surface of the water.
A physical change.
Physical change = can be reverted + doesn't change substance
Chemical = changes substance
Answer:
Chemical change.
Explanation:
When it is heated it decomposes into mercury and oxygen gas. The mercury oxide reactant becomes the silver color of mercury. Hence, a color change can be noticed throughout the reaction.
Answer:
Methane
Explanation:
The gas that you could keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter in Alaska is Methane.
The reason is the extreme low temperature during the winter. The boiling point of butane is 44 ºF ( -1ºC) and that of propane is a higher -43.6 º F but still within the range of average minimum winter temperature in Alaska (-50 ªF). Therefore we will have condensation in the tanks and not enough gas pressure.
Methane having a boling point of -259 ºF will not condense at the low wintertime temperatures in Alaska.
