A solution is made by adding 50 grams of gelatin to 400 grams of water. What is the mass % of water in the sample?

Adding 50 grams of gelatin and 400 grams of water will give us a mixture with a total mass of 450 grams. The percent mass of water is calculated by dividing the mass of water by the total mass and multiply by 100.
                      mass % = (400 / 450) x 100% = 88.89%
Thus, there is approximately 88.90% of water in the sample.

Methane can be decomposed into two simpler substances: hydrogen and carbon. Therefore, methane 1. is a gas. 2. cannot be an elem
Reika [66]

Answer: 2. cannot be an element.

Explanation:

Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Copper Cu

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: methane CH_4

CH_4\rightarrow C+2H_2

Thus as it can be decomposed into its constituent elements, it is a compound.

Mixture is a substance which has two or more components which do not combine chemically and do not have any fixed ratio in which they are present.

Thus methane cannot be an element.

CHEM HELP!
sweet [91]

So let's convert this amount of mL to grams:

\frac{13.6g}{1mL}*1.2mL=16.32g

Then we need to convert to moles using the molar weight found on the periodic table for mercury (Hg):

\frac{1mole}{200.59g}*16.32g=8.135*10^{-2}mol

Then we need to convert moles to atoms using Avogadro's number:

\frac{6.022*10^{23}atoms}{1mole} *[8.135*10^{-2}mol]=4.90*10^{22}atoms

So now we know that in 1.2 mL of liquid mercury, there are 4.90*10^{22}atoms present.

When the forces acting on the object are balanced the object will?​
Volgvan

Answer:

When two forces acting on an object are of similar size but acting in opposite directions, we say they are forces of balance. If the forces on an object are balanced (or if there are no forces acting on it), this is what happens: the object stays stationary

What best describes the collision between ideal gas molecules
Alika [10]
An ideal gas is defined as one in which all collisions between atoms or molecules are perfectly eleastic and in which there are no intermolecular attractive forces. One can visualize it as a collection of perfectly hard spheres which collide but which otherwise do not interact with each other.
