Answer:

Vegetable oil will dissolve in heptane

Isopropyl alcohol will dissolve in water

Potassium Bromide will dissolve in water

Explanation:

In chemistry, like dissolves like. This implies that polar substances will dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar substances will dissolve in nonpolar solvents. This is so because, dissolution of a solute in a solvent involves adequate intermolecular interaction between solute and solvent which isn't possible between a polar and a nonpolar substance.

A rectangular block of solid carbon (graphite) floats at the interface of two immiscible liquids.
Sergio039 [100]

Explanation:

Let us take the volume of block is x.

Since, the block is floating this means that it is in equilibrium. Formula to calculate net force will be as follows.

                F_{net} = Buoyancy force(F_{b}) - weight force(w)

Also, buoyancy force (F_{b}) = (volume submerged in water × density of water) + (volume in oil × density of oil)

          (F_{b}) = (0.592 V \times \rho) + (1 - 0.592)V \times 1000 g          

                      = (0.592 V \times \rho + 408 V) g

As,   W = V × density of graphite × g

It is given that density of graphite is 2.16 g/cm^{3} or 2160 kg/m^{3}.

So, W = 2160 V g

F_{net} = (0.592 V \rho + 408 V) g - 2160 V g = 0

            0.592 \rho = 1752

     \rho = 2959.46 kg/m^{3} or 2.959 g/cm^{3} is the density of oil.

It is given that mass of flask is 124.8 g.

Mass of 35.3 cm^{3} oil = 35.3 \times 2.959 104.7 g

Hence, in second weighing total mass will be calculated as follows.

                       (124.8 + 104.7) g

                       = 229.27 g

Thus, we can conclude that in the second weighing mass is 229.27 g.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The most appropriate type of information for the government to use to make decisions is research reports containing scientific data.

<h3>What is pollution?</h3>

The term pollution has to do with the introduction of materials and energy that are harmful to the environment and also the fauna and flora.

1) The most appropriate type of information for the government to use to make decisions is research reports containing scientific data.

2) If the government committee learns about the side effects and decides the medication is not safe for public use, then the committee used an anecdote and did not use science to make the decision.

3) The type of research that might result in a law that restricts hunting of a particular species is research showing the species is endangered in other geographical areas

4) The statement that explains why a rare disease would get more research funding than a more common disease is; "organizations are concerned about the results of the research into the rare disease."

5) The product that the corporation is most likely manufacture is a sunscreen.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  C = 0.037 cal/g°C

Explanation:

Data

mass of the wire = m = 237 g

temperature 1 = T1 = 25°C

temperature 2 = T2 = 107°C

Heat = Q = 722 cal

Specific heat = C

Process

1.- Write the formula to find the specific heat

            Q = mC(T2 - T1)

-Solve for C

            C = Q / m(T2 - T1)

2.- Substitution

             C = 722 / 237(107 - 25)

3.- Simplification

              C = 722 / 237(82)

              C = 722 / 19434

4.- Result

               C = 0.037 cal/g°C
