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.

An unknown compound has the following chemical formula: Mg_xCl_2
Art [367]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

number of moles magnesium = 6.80mol

number of moles of chlorine = 13.56mol

To find the complete chemical formula, we should obtain the formula of the compound.

                                Mg                            Cl

Number of

moles                      6.8                           13.56

Dividing

by the smallest      6.8/6.8                    13.56/6.8

                                    1                                2

  The formula of the compound is MgCl₂

This is an ionic compound in which Magnesium loses two electrons that would be gained by Cl atoms requiring just an electron each to complete their octet.

A certain intermolecular force is created due to a brief concentration of electrons between nonpolar molecules. What best explai
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

Many substances hold their molecules together in the liquid or solid bosom. This is due, in addition to the pressure and temperature conditions, by the forces of Van der Waals. These are still produced in nonpolar molecules by the movement of electrons through the molecules; in extremely short periods of time, their electrons "charge" towards one end of the molecule, producing small dipoles and keeping the molecules very close to each other.

How does a change in frequency or amplitude change the sound we hear
suter [353]
<span>Pitch is sometimes defined as the fundamental frequency of a sound wave (i.e. generally, the lowest frequency in a given sound wave). For most practical purposes, this is fine, and pitch and frequency can be thought of as equivalent. On the other hand, for most practical purposes, amplitude can be thought of as volume.However, technically, pitch (and volume) are human perceptions. Thus, our perception of pitch and volume are not solely based on frequency and amplitude respectively, but are based on a combination of both (and even other factors). Frequency overwhelming dictates perceived pitch, but amplitude also does have some small, small effect on our pitch perception, especially when it is very large. For example, a very loud sound can have a different <span>perceived </span>pitch than you would predict from its frequency alone.That all being said, usually these effects are negligible, and pitch can be thought of as equivalent to fundamental frequency.

What is smaller than one cell
mr_godi [17]
The organelles and substances inside the organelles are smaller. On a molecular level a group that are smaller are hadrons, which are the group of particles that consist of protons and neutrons. Even smaller than hadrons are leptons, which consist of neutrinos, electons, and MANY others.
