Will an object with a density of 0.999 sink or float

Chemistry

The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.

What is the empirical formula of a compound that is 18.8% Li, 16.3% C , and 64.9% O
zlopas [31]

Greetings!

To find the empirical formula you need the relative atomic mass of each element!

Li = 6.9

C = 12

O = 16

You can simply change the percentages into full grams

Li = 18.8g

C = 16.3g

O = 64.9


Then you use this to find the Number of moles = amount in grams / atomic mass

Li = 18.8 ÷ 6.9 = 2.7246

C = 16.3 ÷ 12 = 1.3583

O = 64.9 ÷ 16 = 4.0562

Then divide each number of moles by the smallest value:

Li = 2.7246 ÷ 1.3583 = 2.0

C = 1.3583 ÷ 1.3583 = 1

O = 4.0562 ÷ 1.3583 = 2.9 ≈ 3


So that means that there are 2 Li, 1 C, and 3 O

Empirical formula would be:

Li₂CO₃


Hope this helps!

What can physical properties not separate?
Mashutka [201]
Color, phase, odor and boiling point are the physical properties. Reactivity with oxygen depends on the chemical nature of object, thus, it is not a physical property. It is a chemical property.

What can be explained by the Arrhenius theory?
vekshin1
Arrhenius theory is a theory about acids and bases. It says that acids are those substances that produces hydrogen ions (H+) when in solution and bases are the substances that dissiociates and produces hydroxide ions (OH-). It was introduced by Svante Arrhenius.

A little boy has placed his pet squirrel into a balloon with a volume of 3L at a pressure of 1.0 atm. If the boy takes his pet s
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: The squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L

Explanation:

To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume.

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume.

We are given:

P_1=1.0atm\\V_1=3L\\P_2=3.5atm\\V_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.0\times 3L=3.5\times V_2\\\\V_2=0.86

Thus the squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L
