Water is denser than oil. When frozen, the oil sinks to the bottom. Why?

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: When water freezes it gets larger and becomes a solid but it still weighs the same as when it was a liquid form. When it becomes larger it takes up space but makes it less dense. Ok so getting to the point- oil unlike water becomes more dense when frozen so this is why oil sinks in water. Sorry if this was confusing but I hope it helped have a great day and god bless you :3

4.4 grams of CO2 represents how many moles?

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

1) Moles of CO 2 = Given mass / Molecular mass of CO 2 = 4.4 / 44 = 0.1 mole. 2) Molecules of CO2 in 0.1 moles of CO2 = 0.1 x 6.023 x 10 23 = 6.023 x 10 22 molecules 3) 44 gram (molecular wt of CO 2) contains 2 moles atom of oxygen therefore 4.4 gram of CO2 will contain = 2 /44 *4.4 = 0.2 moles atom of Oxygen.
