Answer: Limestone or Rheolyte

Explanation:

The density of the given rock sample = mass of the sample/ volume of the sample

= 2.7/1.1 g/cm3

=2.5 g/cm3

From text: Alden, Andrew. "Densities of Common Rocks and Minerals." ThoughtCo, Jan. 23, 2020, thoughtco.com/densities-of-common-rocks-and-minerals-1439119.

Limestone has density range 2.3 - 2.7 (g/cm3)

Rheolyte has density range 2.4 - 2.6 (g/cm3)

The average density of each rock is 2.5 (g/cm3)

Therefore, base on density, the rock sample could be Limestone or Rheolyte

Answer:

The rock is heavier than water and when put into water it will sink.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of rock = 2.7 g

Volume = 1.1 cm³

Type of rock = ?

Solution:

From given data we can calculate the density of rock.

If the density of rock is higher than the density of water it means the rock is heavier than water.

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

d = m/v

d = 2.7 g/ 1.1 cm³

d = 2.5 g/cm³

density of water is 1 g/cm³. The rock is heavier than water and when put into water it will sink.

What is the percent composition each element in c6h8o6
QveST [7]

Answer:

Percentage of oxygen = 30%

Percentage of carbon = 30%

Percentage of hydrogen = 40%

Explanation:

Formula:

Percentage of element = given amount / total amount × 100

Given compound:

C₆H₈O₆

Number of atoms of carbon = 6

Number of atoms of hydrogen = 8

Number of atoms of oxygen = 6

Total number of atoms = 20

Percentage of carbon = 6/20 × 100

Percentage of carbon = 30%

Percentage of Hydrogen = 8/20 × 100

Percentage of Hydrogen = 40%

Percentage of oxygen = 6/20 × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 30%

Why is stainless steel harder than pure iron
lord [1]
Something made of pure iron<span> is softer </span>than steel<span> because the atoms can slip over one another. If other atoms like carbon are added, they are different from </span>iron<span> atoms and stop the </span>iron<span> atoms from sliding apart so easily. This makes the metal </span>stronger<span> and </span>harder<span>.</span>
