Answer:

A. Coal

Explanation:

Volume_{rock} = water displaced by rock

Water displaced by rock = volume of water after rock is dropped into the cylinder - volume of water before the rock was dropped into the water

Water displaced by the rock = 180 ml - 150 ml = 30 ml

Volume_{rock} = 30 ml

Density of rock:

40 grams => 30 ml

x grams => 1 ml

Cross multiply

1*40 = 30*x

40 = 30x

40/30 = 30x/30

1.3 = x

Density of rock = 1.3 g per 1 ml

Recall: 1 ml = 1 cm³

Therefore,

Density of the rock = 1.3 g/cm³

1.3 g/cm³ falls within the range of 1.1 - 1.4 g/cm³

Therefore, the rock is identified as Coal.

Ultra Clorox bleach is 6.68% sodium hypochlorite in water. How much of each is needed to make an 800.mL bottle?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
If we have 6.68% NaClO, it is the same as saying--> 6.68 grams NaClO= 100 mL of solution. we can use this as a conversion. 

800. mL (6.68 mL/ 100 mL)= 53.4 mL

solution = solute + solvent

solute= NaClO
solvent= H2O

solvent= 800-53.4= 747 mL of H2O

so, we you need 53.4 mL of NaClO and 747 mL of water or 53.4 grams of NaClO and 747 mL of water
