Answer:

The air pressure is 9.8 *10^4 pa

The water will rise to a height of 10.0 meter

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

As a storm from moves in, you notice that a column of mercury in a barometer rises to 736 mm.

Step 2: Calculate the air pressure

The Pressure against the mercury column = h*d*g = 0.736 * 13593 * 9.81 = 9.8 * 10^4 Pa

Step 3: Calculate the height of the water

Let the Pressure  the water column for same pressure is h meter : -

9.8 * 10^4 = h*d*g  

=>9.8*10^4 = h*1000*9.81  

=>h = 10.0 meter

The water will rise to a height of 10.0 meter

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5,730 years. How many grams of parent material will remain from a 200-gram sample after 3 half-liv
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 25 grams

Explanation:

Data

half-life = 5730 years

sample = 200 g

after 3 half-lives

Process

Calculate the amount of sample after one, two and three half-lives.

After each half-life, that of sample is half the previous amount.

                         Number of half-lives           Amount of sample

                                       0                                        200 g

                                        1                                         100 g

                                        2                                          50 g

                                       3                                           25 g

As you have seen in this lab, the density of water is near 1 g/cm3. Anything with a density lower than this will float in water,
hammer [34]
The third answer is the one you want. You have to have an adjustable density. All other things being equal, if the tanks you use for holding just water when filled with water will let the sub sink, because the sub is made of a dense metal like iron or steel.

If on the other hand you fill these tanks with air, the net density will be below one and the sub will rise.

a compound has an empirical formula of CH2 what is the molecular formula if it's molar mass is 252.5 grams/mol
Goryan [66]

Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up the compound. the molecular formula is the actual ratio of components making up the compound.

the empirical formula is CH₂. We can find the mass of CH₂ one empirical unit and have to then find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula.

Mass of one empirical unit - CH₂ - 12 g/mol x 1 + 1 g/mol x 2 = 12 = 14 g

Molar mass of the compound is - 252 .5 g/mol

number of empirical units = molar mass / mass of empirical unit

                                           = \frac{252.5 g/mol}{14 g}

                                           = 18 units

Therefore molecular formula is - 18 times the empirical formula

molecular formula  - CH₂ x 18 = C₁₈H₃₆                                            

molecular formula is C₁₈H₃₆

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
