If you are referring to nuclear power plants and radioactive materials, then there is a high necessity to be cautious and stay safe because only by being safe you can prevent accidents like those caused in Ukraine and Japan. Unlike other types of power plants whose destruction in case of an accident can relatively easily be contained, nuclear power plants are extremely difficult to manage if things go out of hand since you can destroy the air around it, the water, the food by ruining the soil, and many other things.

What is the mass of an osmium block that measures 6.70 cm × 9.20 cm × 3.30 cm? The density of osmium is given as 22.610 g/cm3. N
alexira [117]

Answer:

m= 4,599.145 g

Explanation:

Let m = mass, d = density and V = volume of the osmium block.

m = d x V

m = 22.610 g/cm3 x (6.70 x 9.20 x 3.3) cm3

m = 4,599.145 g

How many moles are in 68.5 liters of oxygen gas at STP?
g100num [7]
We can solve this problem when we use the conditions of a gas at standard temperature and pressure. It has been established that at STP where the temperature is 0 degrees Celsius and the pressure is 101.325 kPa, the volume of 1 mole of gas is 22.4 L. We will use this data for the calculations.

68.5 L ( 1 mol O2 / 22.4 L O2 ) = 3.06 mol O2
