Answer:

The sample of lead has a volume of 11.1 cm³

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

x cm³ lead has a density of 11.3 g/cm³

it has the same mass as 330cm³ of a piece of redwood with density 0.38g/cm³

Step 2: Calculate mass of the piece of redwood

Density = mass/volume

mass = density * volume

Mass of the piece of redwood = 0.38 g/cm³ * 330cm³ = 125.4 grams

Since the sample of lead has the same mass, it also has a mass of 125.4 grams

Step 3: Calculate volume of the lead

Density = mass/ volume

Volume = mass/ density

Volume of lead = 125.4g / 11.3g/cm³ = 11.097 cm³≈11.1 cm³

The sample of lead has a volume of 11.1 cm³

A solution is prepared by dissolving 8.75 grams of sodium chloride in enough volume of water to produce 112.0 grams of the NaCl

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer : The percent by mass of the solution is 7.81 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of NaCl = 8.75 g

Mass of solution = 112.0 g

Now we have to determine the percent by mass of the solution.

$\text{Mass percent}=\frac{\text{Mass of NaCl}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent}=\frac{8.75g}{112.0g}\times 100=7.81\%$

Therefore, the percent by mass of the solution is 7.81 %

What accounts for the majority of all air pollution? Is that source increasing or decreasing overall?

lianna [129]

Hi there!

One of the main causes of air pollution is smoking.

Smoking affects not only humans, but pets and animals as well. Animals can get cancer too!

Another big cause of pollution is cars. Gasoline of course comes out into the air after it is used. It also affects animals.

A lot of people know that we should change this, but hardly anyone is really doing anything to try and stop it.

I know this is a short answer, but I hope it helps!
