Answer: The mass of sample is 21.6 grams.

Explanation:

We are given:

Volume of cylinder without object, V_1 = 10 mL

Volume of cylinder with object, V_2 = 18 mL

Volume of object = V_2-V_1=18-10=8mL

To calculate volume of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of a substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of a substance}}{\text{Volume of a substance}}

We are given:

Density of sample (aluminum) = 2.7 g/mL

Volume of sample (aluminum) = 8 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2.7g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of a sample}}{8mL}\\\\\text{Mass of object}=21.6g

Hence, the mass of sample is 21.6 grams.

To determine the mass of the sample, first find the volume difference after and before the aluminum was placed, the volume change is equal to the volume of the submerged object, in this case aluminum.

Then knowing volume of aluminum and the density of it, we can solve for the mass.

D = m/v

Dv = m

2.7 g/ml • 8 ml = 21.6 grams.

Which of the following would have the slowest rate of diffusion at a given temperature
MrMuchimi

Chlorine will have the slowest rate of diffusion because it has the highest   relative molecular mass of 71 followed by O₂ with 32, then Neon 20 then He with 2

The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its relative molecular mass.
