You can predict it by measuring the weight of the spherical object and measuring the liquid (mL) and subtracting finding the volume

To predict the sinking/floating behavior of a spherical object, you could determine its density.

<em>Step 1</em>. Determine its <em>mass</em> on a suitable balance.

<em>Step 2</em>. Determine its <em>volume</em>

<em>Either </em>

Measure its circumference. <em>C</em> = 2π<em>r</em>, so you can calculate r

<em>or </em>

Measure its diameter. <em>d</em> = 2<em>r</em>, so you can calculate <em>r </em>

<em>Then </em>

<em>V</em> = ⁴/₃π<em>r</em>³ , so you can calculate its volume.

<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate its <em>density </em>(<em>D</em>).

Density = mass/volume

If D < 1 g/cm³, the object will float in water. If D > 1 g/cm³, the object will sink.

Write balanced equations for each of the following by inserting the correct coefficients in the blanks:

Balanced equation :

Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2KOH(aq) → Cu(OH)₂(s)  + 2KNO₃(aq)

Balancing a chemical equation :

A chemical equation shows us the substances involved in a chemical reaction - the substances that react (reactants) and the substances that are produced (products). In general, a chemical equation looks like this:

                                 Reactant →Product

According to the law of conservation of mass, when a chemical reaction occurs, the mass of the products should be equal to the mass of the reactants. Therefore, the amount of the atoms in each element does not change in the chemical reaction. As a result, the chemical equation that shows the chemical reaction needs to be balanced. A balanced chemical equation occurs when the number of the atoms involved in the reactants side is equal to the number of atoms in the products side.

How does activation energy affect a chemical reaction ?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Enzymes affect the rate of the reaction in both the forward and reverse directions; the reaction proceeds faster because less energy is required for molecules to react when they collide. Thus, the rate constant (k) increases. Figure 3: Lowering the Activation Energy of a Reaction by a Catalyst.
