Hey there!

Your answer is lead.

If they all have the same diameter, then the density is what is different.

Density is the amount of mass in an amount of space.

The material with the highest density, meaning there is more mass within that amount of space, is lead.

The more mass an object has, the more inertia it has.

So, since lead has the most mass, it also has the most inertia.

Hope this helps!

propane is a hydrocarbon, a compound composed only of carbon and hydrogen. it is 81.82% carbon and 18.18% hydrogen. what is the
scoundrel [369]

Firstly need to determine the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon. Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of components of the compound. Molecular formula  is the actual composition of the components in the compound.

percentage of C - 82.66%

percentage of H - (100-82.66) = 17.34 %

in 100 g of compound ;

mass of C - 82.66 g

mass of H - 17.34 g

                                 C                               H

mass in 100 g        82.66 g                      17.34 g

molar mass           12 g/mol                      1 g/mol

number of moles    6.88 mol                     17.34 mol

(mass/molar mass)

divide the number of moles by least number of moles (6.88 mol)

                               6.88 mol/6.88             17.34/6.88

                                1                                 2.52

multiply these by 2 to get a whole number 

C - 1x 2 = 2

H - 2.52 x 2 = 5.04

round off to nearest whole number 

C - 2

H - 5

ratio of C to H is 2:5

empirical formula - C₂H₅

empirical formula mass = 12 g/mol x 2 + 5 * 1 g/mol = 29 g

next have to find how many empirical units are there in the molecular unit 

molecular unit mass = 58.12 g

empirical unit = 29 g

then number of empirical units = 58.12 / 29 = 2

rounded off , number of empirical units = 2

(C₂H₅) * 2 units

molecular formula = C₄H₁₀

Which equation would you use to solve the following problem? An object is moved 29 meters with a force of 289 N. What is the wor
notsponge [240]

Work done can be calculated from force and distance the object moves.

The equation relating work done, force and distance is,

Work (Joules) = Force (Newton) * Distance (m)

Given the force acting on the object = 289 N

Distance the object moves = 29 m

Calculating the work done from force and distance:

Work = Force * Distance

= 289 N * 29 m

= 8381 J

= 8381 J * \frac{1 kJ}{1000 J} = 8.381 kJ

Atoms of arsenic (As) are often added to silicon (Si) in a process called doping to change the conductivity of the silicon. How
alexandr1967 [171]
Silicon is a popular semi-conductor. The process of doping either creates an excess or lack of electrons. In the case of silicon, the dopant is arsenic which has greater valence electron than silicon. Arsenic then donates an electron resulting to an excess of electrons. A new type or better type of semi-conductor is created. Silicon conduct greater electricity.  

The best answer is the last option.
