<h2>Answer: can see</h2>

Explanation:

The portion visible by the human eye of the electromagnetic spectrum is between 380 nm (violet-blue) and 780 nm (red) approximately.  Which  means this part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light.  

Note the fact only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

Therefore:

Alcohol of mass 33.2g and density 0.79kg/m³ or 790kg/m³ is mixed with water of 9g. What is the density of the resulting mixture?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

  0.83 g/cm³

Explanation:

The volume of the alcohol is ...

  (33.2 g)/(0.79 g/cm³) ≈ 42.0253 cm³

The density of water is about 1 g/cm³, so the volume of 9 g of it is ...

  (9 g)/(1 g/cm³) = 9 cm³

The total volume is ...

  42.0253 cm³ +9 cm³ = 51.0253 cm³

The total mass is ...

  33.2 g + 9 g = 42.4 g

So, the resulting density is ...

  (42.4 g)/(51.0253 cm³) ≈ 0.83 g/cm³

The resulting mixture has a density of about 0.83 g/cm³.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Alcohol dissolves in water, so the total volume will be slightly less than 51.0253 cm³. The attached curve shows the result of mixing ethanol and water.

The weight of a mole of ethanol is about 46 g, of water, about 18.02 g. Then the mole fraction of alcohol is ...

  (33.2/46)/(33.2/46 +9/18.02) ≈ 0.59

The volume of the mix is then estimated to be (-1.05 cc/mol)(1.221 mol), or about 1.28 cm³ less than the volume indicated above. That brings the density up to about 0.85 g/cm³.

We're not completely sure of the relevance of this calculation, since many of the applicable parameters are not specified. The point is that <em>the density of the mix will probably be slightly more than the value calculated above</em>. YMMV

Convert the number from scientific into standard notation: 5.9 x 10-2
guapka [62]
Move the decimal point to:
Left : (if the exponent of ten is a negative number -) ... OUR CASE HERE (-2)
or to
Right : (if the exponent is positive +).

You should move the point as many times as the exponent indicates.
Do not write the power of ten anymore.

So, standard form is:
Two points to the left {Exponent of Ten is Negative (-2)}
0.059 ... (without the 10)
