A scientist compares two samples of white powder. One powder was present at the beginning of an experiment. The other powder was

present at the end. She wants to determine whether a chemical reaction has occurred. She finds that neither sample bubbles or dissolves in water. She measures the mass and volume of the solids. Sample one has a volume of 45 cm3 and a mass of 0.5 g. Sample two has a volume of 65 cm3 and a mass of 1.3 g. What should the scientist conclude?
A)The samples have the same color, so no chemical reaction has occurred.
B)The two samples do not react with water, so no chemical reaction has occurred.
C)The densities of the samples are different, so a chemical reaction has occurred.
D)The densities of the samples are the same, so no chemical reaction has occurred.
E)The densities of the samples are different, so no chemical reaction has occurred.

Density of powder 1 = 0.5 g / 45 cm^3 = 1/90 g/cm^3
Density of powder 2 = 1.3 g / 65 cm^3 = 1/50 g/cm^3

Therefore the densities of the two powders are different, hence chemical reaction has occurred.

(note: none of the other choices make sense.  In fact, a different density does not necessarily indicate a chemical change, see paragraph below).

Density of powders are not definitive unless they are each of the same size and texture.  For example, granular sugar, rock sugar, and icing sugar all have different densities.  I would conclude that this experiment does not lend to a reliable answer.

How would you describe brass since it ia used in weapons, pipes, intruments and ect? A compound, Alloy, Element l, Or molecule?
Alik [6]
<span>Brass is an <u>alloy</u>. An alloy is a mixture of elements to form a unique material. Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc and the percentage of each element depends on the desired material. It has a higher malleability than bronze or zinc. Meaning that it can be bend easily into it desired form.</span>

Two forces act on a 6.00-kg object. One of the forces is 10.0 N. If the object accelerates at 2.00 m/s2
liubo4ka [24]

Given :

Two forces act on a 6.00-kg object. One of the forces is 10.0 N.

Acceleration of object 2 m/s².

To Find :

The greatest possible magnitude of the other force.\

Solution :

Let, other force is f.

So, net force, F = 10 + f.

Now, acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{F}{mass}\\\\a= \dfrac{10+f}{6}\\\\\dfrac{10+f}{6}=2\\\\f = 12 - 10\\\\f = 2 \ N

Therefore, the greatest possible magnitude of the other force is 2 N.

Hence, this is the required solution.

You watch a distant lady driving nails into her front porch at a regular rate of 1 stroke per second. You hear the sound of the
Igoryamba

Answer:

λ = 1360 m

Explanation:

Given data:

frequency of driving nails is given as 1 stroke per second mean at every 0.25 sec she hit the nails

speed of sound is given as 340 m/s

we know that the wave equation is given as

Speed = frequency × wavelength,

v = f × λ

where,

v = speed in meters/second (m/s)

f = frequency in Hertz (Hz)

substituing value to get wavelength  of her driving nails

340 m/s = (1Hz)\times  \lambda

\lambda = \frac{340}{0.25}

λ = 1360 m

Which team sport utilizes judges to determine the points earned? Football Hockey Rhythmic Gymnastics Soccer
finlep [7]

Answer:

Rhythmic Gymnastics

Explanation:

In general, the judges in the sports tend to be in charge for correcting and controlling the breaking of the rules in the particular sport. They are allowed to punish the competitors in accordance with the breaking of the rule, or they are there in order to determine weather a point is regular or not. In the rhythmic gymnastics though, and sports similar to it, the judges have different role, as they are in charge of determining the points earned by the competitors. This is done in a manner where every judge gives certain amount of points, or grades, and when those are summed up, the competitors get their total points.
