D.Less dense than water. Cork has a density of 0.24g/cm³. Water has a density of about 1g/cm³. 

Another example:  Ice floats in water because the density of ice is less than the density of water( 1g/cm³). Ice has a density of 0.92 g/cm³.

A 30.7 g sample of Strontium nitrate, Sr(NO3)2•nH2O, is heated to a constant mass of 22.9 g. Calculate the hydration number.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

  • <em>Hydration number:</em> 4

Explanation:

<u>1) Mass of water in the hydrated compound</u>

Mass of water = Mass of the hydrated sample - mass of the dehydrated compound

Mass of water = 30.7 g - 22.9 g = 7.8 g

<u>2) Number of moles of water</u>

  • Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

  • molar mass of H₂O = 2×1.008 g/mol + 15.999 g*mol = 18.015 g/mol

  • Number of moles of H₂O = 7.9 g / 18.015 g/mol = 0.439 mol

<u>3) Number of moles of Strontium nitrate dehydrated, Sr (NO₃)₂</u>

  • The mass of strontium nitrate dehydrated is the constant mass obtained after heating = 22.9 g

  • Molar mass of Sr (NO₃)₂ :  211.63 g/mol (you can obtain it from a internet or calculate using the atomic masses of each element from a periodic table).

  • Number of moles of Sr (NO₃)₂ = 22.9 g / 211.63 g/mol =  0.108 mol

<u>4) Ratio</u>

  • 0.439 mol H₂O / 0.108 mol Sr(NO₃)₂ ≈  4 mol H₂O : 1 mol Sr (NO₃)₂

Which means that the hydration number is 4.

. When a person weighs himself in pounds, which system of measurement is he using?
timama [110]

Answer:

Weight is a 'force' and in the imperial system, it is measured in pounds-force (lbf or lbf). You might hear this term used together with the term 'slug'. A slug has a mass of 32.174049 lb.

Leni [432]

Answer:

0.65mmHg

Explanation:

Take R =8.314J/mol/K

V=200dm3

PV=nRT

P=0.025×8.314×623/200

=0.65mmHg

Rahul and Sonia were playing with blocks and each of them made a train out of them. Both of them thought of measuring the length
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

(a) The handspan is the distance between the tip of the thumb and tip of the little finger when the hand is fully stretched.

b) It is impossible for them to obtain an accurate result by the use of a handspan because it doesn't use any standard unit for measurement. It is entirely subjective and highly prone to human errors.

c) Anupam  is quite intelligent and active

Explain how the bonding model for sodium metal would differ from the bonding model for sodium chloride, NaCi
Elina [12.6K]
Sodium metal is quite reactive; sodium ions (as in NaCl) are quite unreactive. Cl^- ions are not reactive; they are stingily attracted to positive ions such as Na^+with which they form ionic bonds.
