Answer:

f. 0.0537 kg

Explanation:

To solve this, we use the formula for force of buoyancy (Fb) = Vs × D × g

Where; Fb= Force of buoyancy

Vs= Volume of submerged

block

D= Density of water that block

submerges in

g= acceleration due to gravity

In this question, volume of block can be calculated using L×B×H

= 4.3cm × 5.9cm × 2.75cm = 69.7675cm^3

If 77% of the block is submerged in water, then 77/100 × 69.7675cm^3

= 53.72cm^3 is the Volume of submerged block

Density of water is known as 1000kg/m^3 while the gravitational force is 10m/s^2

We need to convert the Vs (volume of submerged block) to m^3 by dividing by 1,000,000

Hence, Vs = 53.72/1000000

Vs= 0.00005372m^3

Using the formula; (Fb) = Vs × D × g

Fb = 0.00005372m^3 × 1000kg/m^3 × 10m/s^2

Fb = 0.5372kg/m/s^2

Therefore, the force of buoyancy of the object on water is 0.5372kg/m/s^2

Recall that; Mass (m) = Volume (V) × Density (D)

Force of buoyancy (Fb) = Vs×D = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)

i.e. mass = Fb/g

= Mass of the block = 0.5372/10

Mass = 0.05372kg

Therefore, the mass of the block in kg is 0.05372kg

The air we breathe is not considered by chemists to be an element. why not
ohaa [14]
Because Air itself is not an element. it is made up by different elements such as Oxygen and nitrogen. since its made up of a mix of different elements, its rather a homogeneous mixture :)

Why does it smell like burning when i turn my heat on?
ycow [4]

Answer: If you smell a dusty or burning smell the first few times you turn on your heat, it’s most likely dust and dirt that’s settled on components inside your heating system throughout the summer. As you fire up the heat, those dust particles burn away, producing a weird burnt/dusty smell.

Exercise A mixture of 250 mL of methane, CH4, at 35 °C and 0.55 atm and 750 mL of propane, C3Hg, at 35° C and 1.5 atm, were intr
dalvyx [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

      V_{1} = 250 mL,     V_{2} = 750 mL

      T_{1} = 35^{o}C = 35 + 273 K = 308 K

      T_{2} = 35 + 273 K = 308 K

      P_{1} = 0.55 atm,    P_{2} = 1.5 atm

               P = ? ,         V = 10.0 L

Since, temperature is constant.

So,    P_{1}V_{1} + P_{2}V_{2} = PV

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

         P_{1}V_{1} + P_{2}V_{2} = PV

         0.55 atm \times 250 mL + 1.5 atm \times 1.5 atm = P \times 10.0 L

                     P = 0.126 atm

As, 1 atm = 760 torr. So, 0.126 atm \times \frac{760 torr}{1 atm} = 95.76 torr.

Thus, we can conclude that the final pressure, in torr, of the mixture is 95.76 torr.
