Answer:
The volume of an irregularly shaped solid can be determined from the volume of water it displaces. A graduated cylinder contains 19.9 mL of water. When a small piece of galena is added, it sinks and the volume increases to 24.5 mL
If the density is higher than water than the object will sink
Answer:
This means the the sign of q for the reaction was _NEGATIVE _____ and the reaction was _EXOTHERMIC_____.
Explanation:
In calorimetry, when heat is absorbed by the solution, the q-value of the solution will have a positive value. This means that the reaction will produce heat for the solution to absorb and thus the q-value for the reaction will be negative. This is an exothermic reaction.
Whereas, when heat is absorbed from the solution, the q-value for the solution will have a negative value. This means that the reaction will absorb heat from the solution and so the reaction is endothermic, and q value for the reaction is positive.
So, from the question, since the q-value of water is positive, it means that heat is absorbed by the solution and the reaction will produce a negative value of q and it's an exothermic reaction because the reaction produces heat for the solution.
The number of oxygen atoms are 6 atoms
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
According to the law of mass conservation the number of reactant atoms is equal to number of product atoms.
For given equation to obey the law of mass conservation it need to be balanced as below
4 Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃
Al₂O₃ is the product,therefore the number of oxygen atom
= coefficient in front of Al₂O₃ × subscript of O
=2 x 3 = 6 atoms
