Answer:

8721.132 Kg.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Density (D) of silver = 10.5 g/cm³

Length (L) of silver = 0.94 m

Mass (m) of silver =.?

Next, we shall determine the volume of silver. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume = Length × Length × Length

Volume = L × L × L

Volume = L³

Length (L) of silver = 0.94 m

Volume (V) of silver =?

Volume (V) of silver = 0.94³

Volume (V) of silver = 0.830584 m³

Next, we shall convert 0.830584 m³ to cm³. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m³ = 1×10⁶ cm³

Therefore,

0.830584 m³ = 0.830584 m³ / 1 m³ × 1×10⁶ cm³

0.830584 m³ = 830584 cm³

Therefore, 0.830584 m³ is equivalent 830584 cm³.

Thus, the volume of the silver is 830584 cm³.

Next, we shall determine the mass of the silver. This can be obtained as follow:

Density (D) of silver = 10.5 g/cm³

Volume of the silver = 830584 cm³.

Mass of silver =.?

Density = mass /

10.5 = mass of silver /830584

Cross multiply

Mass of silver = 10.5 × 830584

Mass of silver = 8721132 g

Finally, we shall convert the mass of silver, 8721132 g to kilogram (kg). This can be obtained as follow:

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

8721132 g = 8721132 g / 1000 g × 1 Kg

8721132 g = 8721.132 Kg

Therefore, the mass of each cube of silver is 8721.132 Kg

The equation for the reaction between copper and nitric acid is vCu + wHNO3--->xCu(NO3)2 + yNO + zH2O Balance the equation an

lana [24]

Answer:

The coefficients of the balanced equation are:

v= 1
w= 4
x= 1
y= 2
z=2

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter, also called the Law of Conservation of Mass or the Lomonósov-Lavoisier Law, postulates that "mass is neither created nor destroyed, it is only transformed". This means that the reagents interact with each other and form new products with different physical and chemical properties than the reagents, but the amount of matter or mass before and after a transformation (chemical reaction) is always the same. In other words, then the mass before the chemical reaction is equal to the mass after the reaction.

Then, you must balance the following chemical equation:

v Cu + w HNO₃ → x Cu(NO₃)₂ + y NO + z H₂O

For that, you must first look at the subscripts next to each atom to find the number of atoms in the equation. If the same atom appears in more than one molecule, you must add its amounts

Left side: 1 copper, 1 hydrogen, 1 nitrogen and 3 oxygen.
Right side: 1 copper, 2 hydrogen, 3 nitrogen and 8 oxygen.

The coefficients located in front of each molecule indicate the amount of each molecule for the reaction. This coefficient can be modified to balance the equation, just as you should never alter the subscripts.

By multiplying the coefficient mentioned by the subscript, you get the amount of each element present in the reaction.

Generally, hydrogen and oxygen balance in the end. So you balance nitrogen first, because copper is already balanced (there is the same amount on both sides of the reaction). If w = 2, then:

Left side: 1 copper, 2 hydrogen, 2 nitrogen and 6 oxygen.
Right side: 1 copper, 2 hydrogen, 3 nitrogen and 8 oxygen.

But you see then that the oxygen is unbalanced and you have less quantity in the reagents. Then w must be greater. Being w = 4:

Left side: 1 copper, 4 hydrogen, 4 nitrogen and 10 oxygen.
Right side: 1 copper, 2 hydrogen, 3 nitrogen and 8 oxygen.

Going back to the idea of balancing nitrogen, being y = 2:

Left side: 1 copper, 4 hydrogen, 4 nitrogen and 10 oxygen.
Right side: 1 copper, 2 hydrogen, 4 nitrogen and 9 oxygen.

Balancing the hydrogen, being z = 2:

Left side: 1 copper, 4 hydrogen, 4 nitrogen and 10 oxygen.
Right side: 1 copper, 4 hydrogen, 4 nitrogen and 10 oxygen.

Since you have the same amount of each element on each side of the reaction, the reaction is balanced. Then, the balanced equation is:

Cu + 4 HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 NO + 2 H₂O

Finally:

v= 1
w= 4
x= 1
y= 2
z=2

How many significant figures are in each of the following measurements? (c) 0.03003 kg (f) 3.8200 x 103 L (a) (d) 0.00450 m 35.0

erica [24]

Answer:

c =four significant figures = 3003

f = Four significant figures = 3820

d =(i) three significant figures = 450

d =(ii) Six significant figures = 35.0445

b = significant figures = 59.0001

e = five significant figures = 67000

Explanation:

c = 0.03003 kg

four significant figures = 3003

f = 3.8200 × 10³ L

Four significant figures = 3820

d =(i) 0.00450 m and (ii) 35.0445 g

(i) three significant figures = 450

(ii) Six significant figures = 35.0445

b = 59.0001 cm

six significant figures = 59.0001

e = 67000

five significant figures = 67000

The given measurement have five significant figures 41006. this measurement can be rounded to three significant figures i.e, 0.410 g.

All non-zero digits are consider significant figures like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

Leading zeros are not consider as a significant figures. e.g. 0.03 in this number only one significant figure present which is 3.

Zero between the non zero digits are consider significant like 104 consist of three significant figures.

The zeros at the right side e.g 2400 are also significant. There are four significant figures are present.

Which polyatomic ion has a charge of 3-?

skad [1K]

Most of the common inorganic polyatomic ions have negative charges. This means the ion has more electrons than the neutral atoms that are in the ion. A polyatomic ion like phosphate, PO43- has three extra electrons beyond the electrons on the P and O atoms. Got this off google sorry if it doesn't help you :(
