Hanna hypothesizes that granite is denser than sandstone. How can Hanna test her hypothesis?

kherson [118]3 years ago

To test if the hypothesis is correct, a good way is to think of it this way:
Density = mass/volume, right?
Calculate the mass and volume of each and do the equation; this will test your hypothesis.
You will be left with the density of each. But, make sure that the sample sizes are the same (controlled variable) otherwise it will be an unfair test.

A blacksmith heated an iron bar to 1445 °C. The blacksmith then tempered the metal by dropping it into 42,800 mL of
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

6626 g

Explanation:

Given that:

Density of water = 1.00 g/ml, volume of water = 42800 ml.

Since density = mass/ volume

mass of water = volume of water * density of water = 42800 ml * 1 g/ml = 42800 g

Initial temperature of water = 22°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.

specific heat capacity for water = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT water = 45 - 22 = 23°C

For iron:

mass = m,  

specific heat capacity for iron  = 0.444 J/g°C

Initial temperature of iron = 1445°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.

ΔT iron = 45 - 1445 = -1400°C

Quantity of heat (Q) to raised the temperature of a body is given as:

Q = mCΔT

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of water is equal to the temperature loss by the iron.

Q water (gain) + Q iron (loss) = 0

Q water = - Q iron

42800 g ×  4.184 J/g°C × 23°C = -m × 0.444 J/g°C × -1400°C

m = 4118729.6/621.6

m = 6626 g

Silicon Tetrachloride is reacted with very pure magnesium, producing silicon and magnesium chloride. (What would be the unbalanc
raketka [301]
Pure magnesium's formula would just be Mg because all elements except for 7 nonmetals are just left alone when they are by themselves in a formula. The 7 diatomic elements( means they have to have two of them without another element attached to it aka. a subscript two after it when it's by itself) are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. An easy way to remember the diatomic seven is that when looking at a periodic table if you trace over them from nitrogen over to fluorine and down to iodine all of those elements are diatomic + hydrogen. 

And your unbalanced and balanced equations are correct.

(sorry I went on a tangent with the diatomic rules hopefully it will help you in the future though)

A mixture of gases containing 0.20 mol of SO2 and 0.20 mol of O2 in a 4.0 L flask reacts to form SO3. If the temperature is 25ºC
diamong [38]

Answer : The pressure in the flask after reaction complete is, 2.4 atm

Explanation :

To calculate the pressure in the flask after reaction is complete we are using ideal gas equation.

PV=n_TRT\\\\P=(n_1+n_2)\times \frac{RT}{V}

where,

P = final pressure in the flask = ?

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

V = volume = 4.0 L

n_1 = moles of SO_2 = 0.20 mol

n_2 = moles of O_2 = 0.20 mol

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

P=(0.20+0.20)mol\times \frac{(0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times (298K)}{4.0L}

P=2.4atm

Thus, the pressure in the flask after reaction complete is, 2.4 atm

How many electrons in the same atom can share the quantum number n = 2?
melisa1 [442]
With the principle quantum number being 2, the maximum number that can share this is 8. You can use the general formula 2n^2 to calculate this number (n=quantum level), or you can use the concept of quantum numbers (n, l, m, s) to justify this answer.

A dose of aspirin of 5.0 mg per kilogram of body weight has been prescribed to reduce the fever of an infant weighing 8.5 pounds
Tanya [424]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

19 mg

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

dose = 5.0 mg/kg  

weight of infant = 8.5 pounds

Convert 8.5 pounds to kg: 8.5 pounds = 3.86 kg

Therefore;

The dose to give the infant is:  

= (5.0 mg/kg) x (3.86 kg)

= 19.3 mg  

<u>≈ 19 mg</u>
