Chemistry

Pumice rocks are formed due to the air that is trapped in between the rocks, a body of magma spurting out with dissolved gas under pressure. As the magma cracks through the Earth’s surface, the sudden pressure drop causes the gas to come out of the solution. The flash of gas form the vent slices the magma and blows it out as a molten lather. The lather hastily solidifies as it flies into the air and falls back to Earth as pieces of pumice.

A pure compound is found to be 40.0% carbon by mass, 6.73% hydrogen by mass, and 53.3% oxygen by mass. determine the empirical f
ratelena [41]
Since there is no weight, I would assume that this is a 100g of pure compound.
Okay so I would be changing the percentage to gram to solve for the mole.
So
40.0g C (1 mol C/12.01 g C) = 3.33 mol C
6.73g H (1 mol H/1.01 g H ) = 6.66 mol H
53.3g O (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 3.33 mol O

With that, two of our moles is 3.33, so we consider that are our 1, as it is also the lowest. Therefore the empirical formula is CH2O

Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/mL. A sample of aluminum weighs 67.5 g. If this sample is put into a graduated cylinder that ha
romanna [79]

Answer:

60 ml

Explanation:

Now, we know that density = mass/volume

Mass of aluminium = 67.5 g

volume of aluminium =?

density of aluminium = 2.70 g/mL

volume of aluminium = mass/density = 67.5/2.70 = 25 ml

Since volume of water in the cylinder = 35 ml

The water rises to ; 35 ml + 25 ml = 60 ml
