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

Chemistry
1 answer:
sammy [17]3 years ago
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

A gas is at a pressure of 4.30 atm. what is this pressure in kilopascals? in mm hg?
Monica [59]
Units to measure pressure are as follows
atm - atmospheric pressure units
kPa - kilo Pascals
mm Hg - milimeters Hg
conversion units are;
 1 atm = 101 325 Pa
therefore 4.30 atm = 101 325 Pa / atm x 4.30 atm = 435.7 Pa

1 atm = 760.0 mm Hg
 4.30 atm = 760.0 mm Hg / atm x 4.30 atm = 3268 mm Hg

answers are 435.7 Pa and 3268 mm Hg

How many grams of glucose are needed to prepare 400. g of a 2.00% (m/m) glucose solution g?
Dominik [7]
The grams   of glucose  are  needed  to  prepare  400g  of  a 2.00%(m/m)  glucose  solution  g  is  calculated  as  below

=% m/m =mass  of the solute/mass  of  the  solution  x100

let mass of   solute  be represented  by  y
mass  of solution = 400 g
 % (m/m) = 2% = 2/100

 grams  of  glucose  is  therefore =2/100 =  y/400
by cross  multiplication

100y = 800
divide   both side  by  100

y= 8.0 grams
