Answer:

Density is defined as:

Density = Mass/Volume

Now, density is an intensive property, this means that if you have 10 grams of a given material or 1000 grams of the same material, in both cases you will find the same density.

Then a roll of 50 pennies has the same density that a single penny.

The measures of a single penny are:

Mass = 2.5 g

Thickness = 1.52 mm

Radius = 9.525 mm

The coin is a cylinder, and the volume of a cylinder is:

V = pi*r^2*h

where:

pi = 3.14

r = radius = 9.525mm

h = thikness = 1.52mm

The volume is:

V = 3.14*(9.525mm)^2*1.52mm = 433.015 mm^3

The density will be:

D = 2.5g/433.015mm^3 = 0.00577 g/mm^3

Tres litros de oxigeno gaseoso a 15 grados centígrados y a presión atmosférica (1atm), se lleva a una presión de 10mm de Hg. ¿ c

lana [24]

Answer:

Three liters of gaseous oxygen at 15 degrees Celsius and at atmospheric pressure (1atm), is brought to a pressure of 10mm Hg. What will be the volume of the gas now if the temperature has not changed?

Explanation:

Given that, the temperature is constant

Then, using gay Lussac law

P1•V1 / T1 = P2•V2 / T2

Since temperature is constant

Then, T1 = T2 = T and they cancels out

So, we are left with

P1•V1 = P2•V2

Given that, .

Initial volume

V1 = 3 litres.

Initial pressure

P1 = 1atm = 101325 Pa

Final pressure

P2 = 10mmHg = 1333.22 Pa

Then, we want to find the final volume V2

Make V2 subject of formula.

V2 = V1•P1 / P2

V2 = 3 × 101325 / 1333.22

V2 = 288 litres

So, the final volume is 288 litres.

In Spanish

Dado que la temperatura es constante

Luego, usando la ley gay de Lussac

P1 • V1 / T1 = P2 • V2 / T2

Como la temperatura es constante

Entonces, T1 = T2 = T y se cancelan

Entonces, nos quedamos con

P1 • V1 = P2 • V2

Dado que, .

Volumen inicial

V1 = 3 litros.

Presión inicial

P1 = 1atm = 101325 Pa

Presión final

P2 = 10 mmHg = 1333.22 Pa

Entonces, queremos encontrar el volumen final V2

Hacer V2 sujeto de fórmula.

V2 = V1 • P1 / P2

V2 = 3 × 101325 / 1333.22

V2 = 288 litros

Entonces, el volumen final es de 288 litros

MGS and later orbiters found spectral evidence for what minerals on the Martian surface? Check all that apply.

slamgirl [31]

Mars Global Surveyors (MGS) and later orbiters found the following minerals on the Martian surface;

Phyllosilicates

Carbonate
Sulfates
Iron oxide

The Mars Global Surveyors (MGS) and later orbiters suggest that the Martian crust contains a higher percentage of volatile elements such as Sulphur and chlorine than the Earth's crust does.

These scientists also conclude that the most abundant chemical elements in the Martian crust are those found in Igneous rock.

These elements include the following;
