Answer:

3.00 g/mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of the baseball (m): 1500 g

Volume of the baseball = Volume of water displaced (V): 500 mL

Density of the baseball (ρ): ?

Step 2: Calculate the density of the baseball

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

ρ = m/V

ρ = 1500 g/500 mL

ρ = 3.00 g/mL

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. If an object is moving, then it has kinetic energy. If an object has kinetic energy, then it is moving. Many students confuse kinetic energy with potential energy.

What are two ways in which density has practical importance?

Marta_Voda [28]

<span>density is how much matter is packed into one area. so the higher density the more likely it is to be heavier. for example, cork has a very low density and iron has a higher density.</span>

Draw the most stable resonance structure for the intermediate in the electrophilic aromatic bromination of aniline, anisole, and

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

(a) Intermediates

The three structures below represent one contributor to the resonance-stabilized intermediate, in which the lone pair electrons on the heteroatom are participating (the + charge on the heteroatoms do not show up very well).

(b) Relative Stabilities

The relative stabilities decrease in the order shown.

N is more basic than O, so NH₂ is the best electron donating group (EDG) and will best stabilize the positive charge in the ring. However, the lone pair electrons on the N in acetanilide are also involved in resonance with the carbonyl group, so they are not as available for stabilization of the ring.

(c) Relative reactivities

The relative reactivities would be

C₆H₅-NH₂ > C₆H₅-OCH₃ > C₆H₅-NHCOCH₃

Answer:

HgO (empirical formula)

Explanation:

4.08 - 3.78 = 0.3g (oxygen)

$(\frac{4.08}{201}) \: \: \: (\frac{0.3}{16} )$

0.02 : 0.02

0.02/0.02 : 0.02/0.02

1 : 1 (ratio)

HgO ( empirical formula)

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O2 ( your equation correct)
