Answer:

sample C have the highest density

Explanation:

Data Given:

mass of sample A = 224.96 g

Convert g to kg

1 g = 0.001 Kg

224.96 g = 224.96 x 0.001 = 0.225 kg

mass of sample B = 0.55632 Ibs

Convert lbs to kg

2.21 lb = 1 kg

0.55632 Ibs = 0.55632 / 2 = 0.278 kg

mass of sample C = 0.30648 kg

Solution:

To calculate density of every sample we have the following formula

            d = m/v . . . . . . . . . . (1)

It is clear from the formula that density have direct relation with mass and inverse relation with volume, that is density increase with increasing in mass.

As we have same volume of wood sample, so suppose that each sample have volume of  2 cm³

So now we find density for each sample

As for sample A

  • mass of sample A = 0.225 kg
  • supposed volume = 2 cm³

Put values in formula 1

                d = 0.225 kg / 2 cm³

                d = 0.128 kg/cm³

As for sample B

  • mass of sample A = 0.278 kg
  • supposed volume = 2 cm³

Put values in formula 1

                d = 0.278 kg / 2 cm³

                d = 0.139 kg/cm³

As for sample C

  • mass of sample C = 0.30648 kg
  • supposed volume = 2 cm³

Put values in formula 1

                d = 0.30648 kg / 2 cm³

                d = 0.153 kg/cm³

So it shows that sample C have the highest density that is 0.153 kg/cm³ . As it have the highest mass too among all samples.

3. If you start with 8x1025 molecules of Cl, and 25 grams of KI, how many grams of KCl would
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Percent yield = 89.1%

Explanation:

Based on the equation:

Cl₂ + 2KI → 2KCl + I₂

<em>1 mole of Cl₂ reacts with 2 moles of KI to produce to moles of KCl</em>

<em />

To solve this quesiton we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find the limiting reactant. With the limiting reactant we can find the moles of KCl and the mass:

<em>Moles Cl₂:</em>

8x10²⁵ molecules * (1mol / 6.022x10²³ molecules) = 133 moles

<em>Moles KI -Molar mass: 166.0028g/mol-</em>

25g * (1mol / 166.0028g) = 0.15 moles

Here, clarely, the KI is the limiting reactant

As 2 moles of KI produce 2 moles of KCl, the moles of KCl produced are 0.15 moles. The theoretical mass is:

0.15 moles * (74.5513g / mol) =

11.2g KCl

Percent yield is: Actual yield (10.0g) / Theoretical yield (11.2g) * 100

<h3>Percent yield = 89.1%</h3>

Given any two elements within a group, is the element with the larger atomic number likely to have a larger or smaller atomic ra
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

Consider the example of sodium and potassium.

Sodium is present above the potassium with in same group i.e, group one.

The atomic number of sodium is 11 and potassium 19.

So potassium will have larger atomic radius as compared to sodium.

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm
