Density is a physical property which describes the mass of a substance per unit of volume of the substance. It is expressed as Density = m / V and it has units like g/cm^3. We use the density given to solve the problem.
<span>
10.1 lbs (1 kg/2.2 lb)(1000 g / 1kg) / 0.918 g / cm^3 = 5001 cm^3</span><span>

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of human fat is 4990.52cm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of human fat = 10.1 pounds

To convert the given mass grams, we use the conversion factor:

1 pound = 453.592 g

So, 10.1 pounds=10.1\times 453.592=4581.3g

To calculate volume of a substance, we use the equation:

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.918g/cm^3=\frac{4581.3g}{\text{Volume of human fat}}\\\\\text{Volume of human fat}=4990.52cm^3

Hence, the volume of human fat is 4990.52cm^3

Let's investigate the substances involved in the reaction first. The compound <span>CH3NH3+Cl- is a salt from the weak base CH3NH2 and the strong acid HCl. When this salt is hydrated with water, it will dissociate into CH3NH2Cl and H3O+:

CH3NH3+Cl- + H2O </span>⇒ CH3NH2Cl + H3O+

Nest, let's apply the ICE(Initial-Change-Equilibrium) table where x is denoted as the number of moles used up in the reaction:

                 CH3NH3+Cl- + H2O ⇒ CH3NH2Cl + H3O+
Initial                  0.51                             0               0
Change                 -x                             +x             +x
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equilibrium        0.51 - x                         x               x

Then, let's find the equilibrium constant of the reaction. Since the reaction is hydrolysis we use KH, which is the ratio of Kw to Ka or Kb. Kw is the equilibrium constant for water hydrolysis which is equal to 1×10⁻¹⁴. Since the salt comes from the weak base, we use Kb. Since pKb = 3.44, then. 3.44 = -log(Kb). Thus, Kb = 3.6307×10⁻⁴ 

KH = Kw/Kb = (x)(x)/(0.51 - x)
1×10⁻¹⁴/ 3.6307×10⁻⁴ = x²/(0.51-x)
x = 3.748×10⁻⁶

Since x from the ICE table is equal to the equilibrium concentration of H+, we can find the pH of the aqueous solution:

pH = -log(H+) = -log(x)
pH = -log ( 3.748×10⁻⁶)
pH = 5.43

Is potassium fluoride a covalent bond or ionic bond
Ivahew [28]

It's an ionic bond! Potassium is a cation, or a metal with a positive charge, and fluoride is an anion, or a nonmetal with a negative charge.

A covalent bond is the bond between two nonmetals.

Hope this helped!
