4.0g Hg. I may be wrong and I really don't remember how to do it so I am not going to tell you my work, but I tried because I never did good on the chapter in chem.

The number of moles in a substance indicates the amount of the substance that contains the same number of particles as 12 g of the Carbon-12 isotope [or equivalent to 6.02 × 10²³] (which is used as a standard in the world of moles).

Now,

          if     6.02 × 10²³ atoms are found in 1 mole of mecury
   then let   1.20 × 10²² atoms are found in     x

⇒     x  =    (1.20 × 10²²)  ÷  (6.02 × 10²³)

            =  0.0199 moles

Now, mass = moles × molar mass

∴ mass of Hg = 0.0199 mol ×  201 g/mol
                      = 4.001 g

∴ T<span>he mass in grams of a sample of 1.20 x 10</span>²²<span> atoms of mercury is ~ 4 g</span>

A sample of cobalt has a mass of 27 g and a density of 9 g/cm^3. What would be its volume?
8_murik_8 [283]
Given ,

Mass of sample of cobalt = 27 g

density of sample of cobalt = 9g/cm^3

We know that ,

Density = mass of sample/volume of sample

From that relation ,

We can deduce the following as

Volume = mass of sample/density of sample

Hence , required volume of sample of cobalt = 27 g /9 g/cm^3 = 3 cm^3

The volume is \fbox{3cm cube}

Why are silver, lead, and mercury so special? (why do they always precipitate out and never dissolve) PLEASE BE DETAILED BUT SIM
lara [203]
Silver and lead are special elements, where silver is insoluble in all halogen anions (like AgCl, AgI, AgBr)
and lead is insoluble in sulphates and halogen anions ( PbSO4, PbCl2, etc.)
Mercury is special because it is the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature
hope this helps!!

True or false when heat is added to atoms the molecules vibrate much more slowly
Temka [501]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

The particles are held together too strongly to allow movement from place to place but the particles do vibrate about their position in the structure. With an increase in temperature, the particles gain kinetic energy and vibrate faster and more strongly
