Answer: B (Items with densities lower than water will sink due to surface tension)
Explanation:
Surface tension is an intermolecular force exerted on the surface of water making it like a stretch elastic skin. Surface tension enables items with lesser densities than water, to float and slide on a water surface. Examples insects, leaves, paper etc
According to Archimedes principle an object denser than the fluid will sink. While objects less dense than the fluid will float.
Answer is (B) is false because items with densities higher then water will sink due to surface tension
Answer:
Nickel(III) oxide is the chemical name of the compound represented by the formula Ni2O3?
Answer:
For terrestrial animals, grazing is normally distinguished from browsing in that grazing is eating grass or forbs, and browsing is eating woody twigs and leaves from trees and shrubs. Grazing differs from true predation because the organism being grazed upon is not generally killed.
Explanation:
Iodine has an electronegativity of 2.5, and potassium has an electronegativity of 0.8, so the difference is:
2.5 - 0.8 = 1.7
D = m / V
It even gives you the density of gold in the problem. Major hint. Once you know the volume (using V = m / D) then you can calculate the height (thickness) from the equation...
V = L x W x H
Volume = Length x Width x Height
start by converting 200.0 mg into grams
1000 mg = 1 g
200. mg x (1 g / 10^3 mg) = 0.200 g
V = m / D
V = 0.200 g / (19.32 g/cm^3)
V = 0.01035 cm^3
Convert 2.4 ft and 1 ft to cm
2.4 ft x (12 in / 1 ft) x (2.54 cm / 1 in) = 73.15 cm
1 ft = 30.48 cm
Compute the height (thickness)
V = LxWxH
H = V / LW = 0.01035 cm^3 / 73.15 cm / 30.48 cm
H = 4.64 x 10^-6 cm
Convert to nanometers
4.64 x 10^-6 cm x (1 m / 100 cm) x (10^9 nm / 1 m) = 46.4 nm
Knowing the atomic radius of gold, I might have asked my students for the minimum number of gold atoms in this thickness of gold. This would assume that the gold atoms are all in a row. This would give the minimum number of gold atoms.
Atomic radius gold = 174 pm
Diameter = 348 pm
46.4 nm x (1 m / 10^9 nm) x (10^12 pm / 1 m) x (1 Au atom / 248 pm) = 133 atoms of gold
