How much volume (in cm3) is gained by a person who gains 11.1 lbs of pure fat?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
6 0

The density of human fat is 0.918 g/cm^{3}. The mass of the pure fat is 11.1 lbs.

First convert mass from lb to g as follows:

1 lb=453.592 g

Thus,

11.1 lb\rightarrow 11.1\times 453.592 g=5034.875 g

Density of a substance is defined as mass per unit volume, thus volume can be calculated as:

V=\frac{m}{d}

Putting the values,

V=\frac{5034.875 g}{0.918 g/cm^{3}}=5484.61 cm^{3}

Therefore, volume gained by person will be 5484.61 cm^{3}.

The Average Speed of the orbiting space shuttle is
maxonik [38]

Explanation:

It is given that, the Average Speed of the orbiting space shuttle is  17500 miles/hour.

We need to convert the speed in kilometers/ second

We know that,

1 mile = 1.609 km

or

1 km = 0.621 miles

1 hour = 3600 seconds

17500\ \dfrac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}=17500\ \dfrac{\text{miles}}{\text{h}}\times \dfrac{1\ h}{3600\ s}\\\\=17500\times \dfrac{\text{miles}}{3600\ s}

Now cancel the miles in numerator.

17500\times \dfrac{\text{miles}}{3600\ s}=17500\times \dfrac{\text{miles}}{3600\ s}\times \dfrac{1.609\ km}{1\ \text{miles}}\\\\=17500\times \dfrac{1.609}{3600}\ km/s\\\\=7.82\ km/s

So, 17500 miles/hour is equal to 7.82 km/s.

Explain why you hear a “whoosh” sound when you open a can containing a carbonated drink. Which gas law applies?
Lana71 [14]

Carbonated drinks have the air under pressure so that carbon bubbles are forced into the drink, keeping it carbonated. So when you open a can, the air under pressure in the can comes out of the can at a high speed, making a "whooshing" sound. The gas law that applies to this concept is the Boyle's Law (PV=k or P1V1=P2V2).

Which is a reactive nonmetal???
ololo11 [35]
Sodium is very reactive but it’s a metal, and the problem asks specifically for a non-metal.
Silicone is technically reactive, but not super reactive.
Argon is a nonmetal, however it is an inert gas. It doesn’t react with anything.

We’re left with Chlorine, which is a non-metal in group 7, a highly reactive group, on the periodic table.
