Answer:

lattice parameter = 5.3355x10^-8 cm

atomic radius = 2.3103x10^-8 cm

Explanation:

known data:

p=0.855 g/cm^3

atomic mass = 39.09 g/mol

atoms/cell = 2 atoms

Avogadro number = 6.02x10^23 atom/mol

a) the lattice parameter:

Since potassium has a cubic structure, its volume is equal to:

v = [(atoms/cell)x(atomic mass)/(p)x(Avogadro number)]

substituting values:

v =[(2)x(39.09)/(0.855x6.02x10^23)]=1.5189x10^-22 cm^3

but as the cell volume is

a^3 =v

a=\sqrt[3]{v}=\sqrt[3]{1.5189x10^{-22} } = 5.3355x10^-8 cm

for a BCC structure, the atomic radius is equal to

r=\frac{ax\sqrt{3} }{4}=\frac{5.3355x10^{-8}x\sqrt{3}  }{4}=2.3103x10^{-8}cm

A group of students are measuring how the acceleration of a mass will change due to a force.
Fudgin [204]

The graph of the plot of acceleration against force is a straight line graph. Option B

<h3>What is the relationship between force and acceleration?</h3>

From the Newton's second law of motion we can derive that; F = ma

F= mass

a = acceleration.

This implies that the acceleration and the mass of a body has a linear relationship. We could then assert that the force is directly proportional to the acceleration with the mass being the constant in the equation.

As such, the force that is imparted to the body is what determines the acceleration and the both increases or decreases linearly. Thus the graph of the plot of acceleration against force is a straight line graph. Option B

Can u plz give an answer to me thank you​

The puppies have different colored noses because of reccesive and dominant genotypes.

Genotypes are represented by letters, capital being dominant and lowercase being recessive.

For example, lets say t = pink nose and T = black nose.

If the parents have black noses, then they will pass on T genotypes.

But, they also have hidden pink nose genotypes.

These hidden genotypes are passed on to the puppies, one of the puppies gets more black nose genotypes.

If a puppy gets tt, they will have a pink nose.

If they get TT, they will have a black nose

If they get Tt, they will also have a black nose.

Because the black nose is dominant, its more likley for the puppies to end up with a black nose.

The molar mass of gallium (Ga) is 69.72 g/mol.
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

2.35 x 10²⁰ atoms Ga

Explanation:

After converting from mg to g, use the molar mass as the unit converter to convert to moles. Then using Avogadro's number, 6.022 x 10²³ convert from moles to atoms of Ga.

27.2mgGa*\frac{1g}{1000mg} *\frac{1 mol Ga}{69.72gGa} *\frac{6.022*10^2^3 atoms Ga}{1 molGa} = 2.349 * 10^2^0 atoms Ga

Then round to 3 significant figures = 2.35 x 10²⁰ atoms Ga.
