As we know,
Density of Benzene = 876 Kg/m³
And,
Density of Water = 997 Kg/m³
So,
Specific Gravity is calculated as,

Specific Gravity = Density of Benzene / Density of Water

Specific Gravity = 876 Kg/m³ / 997 Kg/m³

Specific Gravity = 0.878

Every object having specific gravity less than 1 will float on water and if value is greater than 1 then it will sink.

Benzene being non-polar in nature does not mix with water and due to less density it will float on the surface of water.

he combustion of propane (C3H8) is given by the balanced chemical equation C_3H_8+5O_2\longrightarrow3CO_2+4H_2O C 3 H 8 + 5 O 2

Basile [38]

Answer:

290 grams

Explanation:

Let's begin by writing the balanced chemical equations:

$C_{3}H_{8} +5O_{2} --->3CO_{2} +4H_{2}O$

Then we calculate the number of moles in 97g of propane.

n(propane)= $\frac{mass}{molarmass} =\frac{97g}{44.1g/mol}=2.1995mol$

According to the balanced chemical equation, one mole of propane produces 3 moles of carbon dioxide. So the available number of moles of propane must be multiplied by three to work out the number of carbon dioxide produced.

n(carbon dioxide)= 2.1995mol*3 = 6.5985mol

mass(carbon dioxide) = moles * molar mass

= 6.5985 mol * 44.01 g/mol

= 290 grams

What is the ground state electron configuration for B3+ ?

Arisa [49]

The ground state electron configuration is the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus of an atom with lower energy levels. The electrons occupying the orbitals of varying energy levels naturally falls towards the lowest energy state or ground state.
