What are the steps to finding an items density?

1 answer:

3 0

There are 5 steps:
1- measure the mass of the container
2- measure the volume of the liquid
3- measure the combined mass of the liquid and the container.
4-determine the mass of the liquid alone
5-divide the mass by the volume.

How are nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 same and different?

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Since different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons (but always the same number of protons) they have different mass numbers. Nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 are both stable isotopes of nitrogen. However, the other 5 isotopes are all unstable.

Which is stronger - the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond str

Allisa [31]

Out of the two, the forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions is greater. This is proven by the fact that chromium chloride is slightly soluble in water, about 565 grams per liter.
In order for a substance to be soluble, the attraction of the ions to the water molecules must exceed the attraction between its own molecules and the water molecules.

Why is water essential to living things? (1 pc

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Living organisms need water to survive. Many scientists even believe that if any extra-terrestrial exists, water must be present in their environments. All oxygen-dependent organisms need water to aid in the respiration process. Some organisms, such as fish, can only breathe in water. Other organisms require water to break down food molecules or generate energy during the respiration process. Water also helps many organisms regulate metabolism and dissolves compounds going into or out of the body.

A 3.06 gram sample of an unknown hydrocarbon with empirical formula CH2O was found to contain 0.0170 moles of the substance. Wha

Yanka [14]

Answer:

180 amu

C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the molecular mass of the compound

The sample has a mass (m) of 3.06 g and it contains (n) 0.0170 moles. The molar mass M is:

M = m/n = 3.06/0.0170 mol = 180 g/mol

Then, the molecular mass is 180 amu.

Step 2: Determine the molar mass of the empirical formula.

M(CH₂O) = 1 × M(C) + 2 × M(H) + 1 × M(O)

M(CH₂O) = 1 × 12 g/mol + 2 × 1 g/mol + 1 × 16 g/mol = 30 g/mol

Step 3: Determine the molecular formula

First, we will determine "n" according to the following expression.

n = molar mass molecular formula / molar mass empirical formula

n = 180 g/mol / 30 g/mol = 6

The molecular formula is:

n × CH₂O = 6 × CH₂O = C₆H₁₂O₆
