Answer:

The hollow ball is more buoyant than the solid ball.

Explanation:

The hollow ball will float while the solid ball sinks because the volume of water displaced by the hollow ball is more than that displaced by the solid ball.

An object floats when it displaces a volume of water equal to its weight.  A solid ball is more compact, and hence, does not displace a lot of water when dropped into a bowl full of water. On the other hand, the hollow ball will have a larger curved surface area, since it has no fill. This will make it displace a larger volume of water and hence make it float.

After recrystallizing an impure sample with isopropanol, you isolate your product by filtration. What solvent do you use to wash
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is ice cold isopropanol.

Explanation:

Any compound in the initial stage is first dissolved in any suitable solvent and is heated for a certain duration for the process of recrystallization. Afterward, the compound is kept at room temperature so that it gets cooled gradually. In the process, the impurities remain dissolved in the solvent and the pure compound gets separated in the form of a precipitate.  

Post all this, the filtration of the pure compound is done and is then washed with the cold solvent, which was initially used to dissolve the compound. Therefore, the appropriate solvent to use in the process is ice-cold isopropanol.

What is the mass in grams of 1.02 x 1024 atoms manganese (Mn)? a. 0.112 x 101 g c. 9.30 x 10-1g b. 0.169 x 101 g d. 9.31 x101 g
Otrada [13]

I believe you mean 1.02*10^24 so I did


1.02*10^24/(6.02*10^23) * 54.938. I got d) 9.31*10^1 g as my answer.

Why do we need to have common denominators when adding fractions?
jeyben [28]
So that we have the right answer once we do the addition
Say that I measure my self at 12 feet with one measuring stick, and go on with another measuring stick that tells me I'm 3 meters tall, if I added those, I would be at something like 15/46 or something like that. See that would be wrong. We would want the right denominator so that it could be easier and also correct.
