B.) Digestion

when food passes through the gastrointestinal tract, the food get mixed with digestive juices which break down large food molecules. The body absorbs these molecules/nutrients through the small intestine and enter your blood stream. Your blood stream delivers these nutrients to the rest of the body.

Density can be defined as the mass of the substance in unit volume.

Density = mass / volume

Hence, g/mL and kg/L can be used as the units of density.

Those units are interchangeable because when converting one unit into other one nothing will happen to the value.

That is because when converting the g into kg, you have to multiply the value by 1 x 10⁻³. When converting mL into L, you should again multiply the volume by 1 x 10⁻³. Then those 1 x 10⁻³ will cancel off and the original value will remain as same.

Answer is 2.70 g/mL.

Explanation;

Mass of the block = 146 g

Volume of the block = length x width x height

= 6.0 cm x 3.0 cm x 3.0 cm

= 54 cm³ = 54 mL

Density = mass / volume

= 146 g / 54 mL

= 2.70 g/mL

Answer is 3.39 g/mL.

Explanation;

When immersing an object in a solution, the increased volume indicates the volume of that object.

Hence,

Volume of the object = increased volume of water level

= final volume - initial volume

= 27.8 mL - 21.2 mL

= 6.6 mL

Mass of the object = 22.4 g

Density = Mass / Volume

= 22.4 g / 6.6 mL

= 3.39 g/mL

Accepted value is the value that scientists and community accept as true. This is a theoretical value.

But the measured value is the value that you obtain from doing experiments. This is the actual value.

If your measured value is more close to the accepted value, then your measured value is more precise. But, if your measured value is far away from accepted value means that your value is not precise and there may have some errors.

Answers : Percent error is 9.11 %

The element which has 7.13 g/cm³ as density is Zinc (Zn).

Explanation;

Percent error can be calculated by using following formula.

% error = ( (measured value - accepted value) / accepted value ) x 100%

= ( (7.78 g/cm³ - 7.13 g/cm³) / 7.13 g/cm³ ) x 100%

= 9.11 %

The gasses in a hair spray can are at temperature 300k and a pressure of 30 atm, it

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

900 K

Explanation:

Recall the ideal gas law:

$\displaystyle PV = nRT$

Because only pressure and temperature is changing, we can rearrange the equation as follows:
$\displaystyle \frac{P}{T} = \frac{nR}{V}$

The right-hand side stays constant. Therefore:

$\displaystyle \frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2}$

The can explodes at a pressure of 90 atm. The current temperature and pressure is 300 K and 30 atm, respectively.

Substitute and solve for T₂:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \frac{(30\text{ atm})}{(300\text{ K})} & = \frac{(90\text{ atm})}{T_2} \\ \\ T_2 & = 900\text{ K}\end{aligned}$

Hence, the temperature must be reach 900 K.

__________ could be the formula of an alkene. a. c3h8 b. c2h8 c. c6h6 d. c3h6 e. c17h36

drek231 [11]

The general formula for alkenes is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.

What are alkenes?

Alkenes, commonly known as olefins, are organic unsaturated hydrocarbons that have one or more carbon-carbon double bonds in their chemical structure and are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with a double bond between the carbon atoms. Carbon atoms are connected by at least one double bond. The general formula for alkenes is C n H 2n. Olefin is frequently substituted with alkenes. The word "olefin" comes from the Greek phrase "olefin gas," which denotes the production of oil.

Since, their general formula is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.

A population of rabbits triples every 2 months If there are 2 rabbits initially, how long will it take for the population to inc

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The rabbit population will reach 500 after 10 months.

Explanation:

According to the given data:

The initial number of rabbit's equals 2.

Number of rabbit's after 2 months =2x3= 6

Number of rabbit's after 4 months = 6x3=18

Number of rabbit's after 6 months = 18x3=54

Number of rabbit's after 8 months = 54x3=162

Thus we can see that the number of rabbit's form a Geometric series with common ratio =3 and initial term = 2

Now the general term of a geometric series with first term 'a' and common ratio 'r' is given by

$T_{n+1}=ar^{n}$

Thus we need to find when the term becomes 500 thus using the given data we have

$500=2\cdot 3^{n}\\\\3^{n}=250\\\\(n)log_3(3)=log_3(250)\\\\(n)=5.025\\\\$

Thus the fifth term (excluding the start term) will have a rabbit count of 500 now since each term has a time difference of 2 months thus sixth term will occur after $5\times 2=10months$
