As the metal rusts it expands increasing its mass therefore increasing the weight.

Because the rusty nail had the combined mass of the original nail along with oxidized substances. since your adding something that exists to the mass your mass will be greater.

Answer:

Tara does not get the same results when she conducts the experiment

Explanation:

<em>The most likely reason Tara suggested to Victor to perform the experiment again before publication would be because she did not get the same results when she conducted the experiment.</em>

A good scientific research or experiment should have an element of reproducibility. In order words, the claim made in published scientific research should be reproducible by any other scientist that decides to replicate the research. <u>Tara repeated Victor's experiment in order to check its reproducibility and when she could not reproduce the results, she had to tell Victor to conduct the experiment again before deciding to publish it.</u>

use snells law for glass n=sini/sinr

the value of angle of refraction in glass becomes value of angle of incidence in the glass methanol interface

use snells law again to get the angle light makes with methanol.
