<span>The mass of an object is measured in either grams or kilograms. Mass is best described as the amount of matter, or "stuff," in a solid, and is different from weight (which is the force of gravity on an object). Since mass is used with solids, it will be measured in grams or kilograms (rather than in something like liters, which would be used with the volume of a liquid). To measure mass, you can use a balance, for example a triple balance beam.</span>
Answer:
35.9%
Explanation:
The percent volume of the coffee solution can be calculated as follows:
% volume of coffee solution = volume of coffee/total volume of coffee solution × 100
According to this question, a cup of coffee has 71 mL of coffee and 127 mL of water. This means that, the total volume of coffee solution is;
71mL + 127mL = 198mL
% volume = 71/198 × 100
= 0.359 × 100
Percent volume of coffee solution = 35.9%
Answer: 12
Explanation.
This problem was recently posted and deals with the conversion of units,so I give the same answer.
You need to convert the 9 quibs of skvarnick to sleps, to determine how many sleps you have.
The conversion of units is easily undertaken once you build your conversion factors.
Conversion factors are ratios (fractions) equivalent to one, which permits use the identity property of the multiplication to change one unit to a different equivalent one.
Remember that the identity property of multiplication states that any amount multiplied by 1 remains unchanged, i.e.

Then, build your conversion factor from the definitions given:
- 12 sleps is equal to 9 quibs.
- in virtue of the division property of equality, you can divide both sides by 12 sleps and get:
1 = 12 sleps / 9 quibs ← conversion factor
Now you can multiply the amount 9 quibs by the conversion factor, which is equal to 1, to find the equivalent amount of sleps:
- identity property: 9 quibs = 9 quibs × 1
- substitution property: 9 quibs = 9 quibs × 12 sleps/ 9 quibs
You can see that the unit quibs appear in the numerator and the denominator so it cancels out, and the result will be in sleps.
So, all you have to do now is the operations with the numbers:
9 quibs = (9 × 12 / 9) sleps = 12 sleps ← answer
Energy is distributed not just in translational KE, but also in rotation, vibration and also distributed in electronic energy levels (if input great enough, bond breaks).
All four forms of energy are quantised and the quanta ‘gap’ differences increases from trans. KE ==> electronic.
Entropy (S) and energy distribution: The energy is distributed amongst the energy levels in the particles to maximise their entropy.
Entropy is a measure of both the way the particles are arranged AND the ways the quanta of energy can be arranged.
We can apply ΔSθsys/surr/tot ideas to chemical changes to test feasibility of a reaction:
ΔSθtot = ΔSθsys + ΔSθsurr
ΔSθtot must be >=0 for a chemical change to be feasible.
For example: CaCO3(s) ==> CaO(s) + CO2(g)
ΔSθsys = ΣSθproducts – ΣSθreactants
ΔSθsys = SθCaO(s) + SθCO2(g) – SθCaCO3(s)
ΔSθsurr is –ΔHθ/T(K) and ΔH is very endothermic (very +ve),
Now ΔSθsys is approximately constant with temperature and at room temperature the ΔSθsurr term is too negative for ΔSθtot to be plus overall.
But, as the temperature is raised, the ΔSθsurr term becomes less negative and eventually at about 800oCΔSθtot becomes plus overall (and ΔGθ becomes negative), so the decomposition is now chemically, and 'commercially' feasible in a lime kiln.
CaCO3(s) ==> CaO(s) + CO2(g) ΔHθ = +179 kJ mol–1 (very endothermic)
This important industrial reaction for converting limestone (calcium carbonate) to lime (calcium oxide) has to be performed at high temperatures in a specially designed limekiln – which these days, basically consists of a huge rotating angled ceramic lined steel tube in which a mixture of limestone plus coal/coke/oil/gas? is fed in at one end and lime collected at the lower end. The mixture is ignited and excess air blasted through to burn the coal/coke and maintain a high operating temperature.
ΔSθsys = ΣSθproducts – ΣSθreactants
ΔSθsys = SθCaO(s) + SθCO2(g) – SθCaCO3(s) = (40.0) + (214.0) – (92.9) = +161.0 J mol–1 K–1
ΔSθsurr is –ΔHθ/T = –(179000/T)
ΔSθtot = ΔSθsys + ΔSθsurr
ΔSθtot = (+161) + (–179000/T) = 161 – 179000/T
If we then substitute various values of T (in Kelvin) you can calculate when the reaction becomes feasible.
For T = 298K (room temperature)
ΔSθtot = 161 – 179000/298 = –439.7 J mol–1 K–1, no good, negative entropy change
For T = 500K (fairly high temperature for an industrial process)
ΔSθtot = 161 – 179000/500 = –197.0, still no good
For T = 1200K (limekiln temperature)
ΔSθtot = 161 – 179000/1200 = +11.8 J mol–1 K–1, definitely feasible, overall positive entropy change
Now assuming ΔSθsys is approximately constant with temperature change and at room temperature the ΔSθsurr term is too negative for ΔSθtot to be plus overall. But, as the temperature is raised, the ΔSθsurr term becomes less negative and eventually at about 800–900oC ΔSθtot becomes plus overall, so the decomposition is now chemically, and 'commercially' feasible in a lime kiln.
You can approach the problem in another more efficient way by solving the total entropy expression for T at the point when the total entropy change is zero. At this point calcium carbonate, calcium oxide and carbon dioxide are at equilibrium.
ΔSθtot–equilib = 0 = 161 – 179000/T, 179000/T = 161, T = 179000/161 = 1112 K
This means that 1112 K is the minimum temperature to get an economic yield. Well at first sight anyway. In fact because the carbon dioxide is swept away in the flue gases so an equilibrium is never truly attained so limestone continues to decompose even at lower temperatures.

Explanation:
The charged particles of nucleus are protons while neutrons are neutral having no charge.
We know that an atom consist of electrons, protons and neutrons. Neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus.
Electron has a negative charge and is written as e⁻. The mass of electron is 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg . While mass of proton and neutron is 1.672623×10⁻²⁷Kg and 1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg respectively.
Symbol of proton= P⁺
Symbol of neutron= n⁰
The number of electron or number of protons are called atomic number while mass number of an atom is sum of protons and neutrons.
one proton contribute 1 amu to the total weight. There are 20 protons and 20 neutrons in Ca thus its atomic mass is 40 amu.
While the atomic number is 20.
