Answer:

Gas X

Explanation:

The given reaction can be written in the form of chemical equation as shown below as:

X+2Y\rightarrow 2XY_2

According to law of conservation of mass, the moles of each substance in the reaction must be equal on both reactant and product side.

Also, the question asks for the gas which is diatomic. XY_2 cannot be diatomic as the formula contains 3 atoms.

Between gas X and gas Y , <u>X has to be diatomic for the reaction to balance </u>as:

X_2+2Y\rightarrow 2XY_2

If 60 grams of a liquid takes up 120ml how dense is the liquid
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<h2>Density = 0.5 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3>Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}</h3>

From the question

mass = 60 g

volume = 120 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's

<h3>Density =  \frac{60}{120}  \\  =  \frac{1}{2}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>Density = 0.5 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
