Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid.

Answer:The solid is less dense than the liquid

Explanation:

Ice is less dense than water because of the crevices or spaces in the lattice structure of ice. Liquid water has a much greater density than solid water because its molecules are more compactly packed than in ice. Ice has large spaces between the hydrogen bonded water molecules hence less density than the liquid. Being less dense than !liquid water, it floats on water.

Masja [62]

Answer:

  The purpose of this guide is to help you write a clear and concise report that summarizes the lab I just completed.  This lab showed me how water carries rocks to a new location. For instance how the first model showed how a stream would act with light drizzle to downpour as I saw the outcomes were all if not completely then partially different  

            I read the information that was given to me before I started each lab lesson and went on from there.

Explanation:

What is the most likely reason that nonmetals are electrical insulators?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Since valence shells are mostly empty in nonmetal atoms, the atoms attract and hold any electrons they can in order to fill their valence shells.

A chemical reaction is shown below:
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Mass = 8.46 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water produced = ?

Mass of glucose = 20 g

Mass of oxygen = 15 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂     →   6H₂O + 6CO₂

Number of moles of glucose:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20 g/ 180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.11 mol

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.47 mol

now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and glucose.

               C₆H₁₂O₆           :            H₂O

                   1                   :              6

                 0.11                :           6/1×0.11 = 0.66

                   O₂               :            H₂O

                   6                   :              6

                 0.47                :           0.47

Less number of moles of water are produced by oxygen thus it will limit the yield of water and act as limiting reactant.

Mass of water produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.47 mol  ×18 g/mol

Mass = 8.46 g
