The density of mercury is 13.5g/mL. What is the volume of this liquid if the sample weighs 12.5 pounds?
Mama L [17]

Answer : The volume of liquid is 420 mL.

Explanation :

Density : The mass per unit volume of a substance is known as density.

Formula used:

\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}

As we are given:

Density of mercury = 13.5 g/mL

Mass = 12.5 pounds

First we have to convert mass of sample from pound to gram.

Conversion used:

As, 1 pound = 453.6 g

So, 12.5 pounds = 453.6 × 12.5 g = 5670 g

Now we have to calculate the volume of liquid.

\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}

Now putting all the given values in this formula, we get:

13.5g/mL=\frac{5670g}{\text{Volume}}

Volume = 420 mL

Therefore, the volume of liquid is 420 mL.

Bauxite must go through two processes to produce aluminum metal. The yield of the Bayer process, which extracts aluminum oxide f
Mashcka [7]

The yield of aluminium obtained from 1 m^3 of bauxite is 419810 g

<h3>What is a Percent yield</h3>

A percent yield of a substance measures the amount of the substance actually obtained as a percentage ratio of expected yield.

Percent yield = actual yield / expected yield × 100%

<h3>How to calculate the mass of aluminium obtained from bauxite </h3>

From the data given:

40 % of the bauxite is converted to aluminium oxide.

Volume of bauxite = 1 m^3

40 % of 1 m^3 = 0.4 m^3

volume of aluminium oxide = 0.4 m^3

density of aluminium oxide = 3965 kg/m^3

  • Using mass = density × volume

mass of aluminium oxide = 0.4 × 3965 kg

mass of aluminium oxide = 1586 kg

Formula of aluminium oxide is Al203

molar mass of aluminium oxide = 102 g

  • percentage mass of aluminium in one mole of aluminium oxide = mass of aluminium / mass of aluminium oxide × 100 %

Percentage mass of aluminium in aluminium oxide = 54/102 × 100

Percentage mass of aluminium in aluminium oxide = 52.94 %

Expected mass of aluminium from aluminium oxide = 52.94 × 1586

Expected mass of aluminium = 839.62 kg

Actual yield = 40 % × 839.62

Actual yield of aluminium = 419.81 kg

mass of aluminium in grams = 419810 g

Therefore, mass of aluminium obtained from 1 m^3 of bauxite is 419810 g

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

2n² means 2 × n × n . the power on the n represent the no. of time it is multiplied.

for ex 3x² = 3 × x × x

4x⁴ = 4 × X× X × X× X
