A graduated cylinder with just water has a volume of 20.0 mL. When a 25.0 g piece of zinc alloy is added, the new volume is 23.2

Density of any substance is mass of the substance per unit volume. Density, d=m/V, where m is mass of the substance and V is the volume occupied by the substance. The amount of water displaced by an object when it is  submerged in water equals the volume of the object. So, due to submerge of piece of zinc alloy in water  present in graduated cylinder, water level rises. The increase in the volume of water is the volume of the zinc piece.

Volume of water in graduated cylinder before addition of zinc piece (v₁)= 20 ml, Volume of water in graduated cylinder after addition of zinc piece (v₂)= 23.2 ml, Rise in the volume due to submerge of the piece = (v₂ - v₁)ml= 23.2-20.0= 3.20 ml. So, volume of the piece is 3.20 ml and mass of the zinc piece is  25.0 g.

Hence density zinc alloy is equal to \frac{25.0}{3.20} g/ml= 7.81 g/ml= 7.8 g/ml (expressed in two significant figure).

Draw the lewis structure for so42-. How many equivalent resonance structures can be drawn?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure and resonating structure of SO_4^{2-} is shown below.

Explanation :

Resonance structure : Resonance structure is an alternating method or way of drawing a Lewis-dot structure for a compound.

Resonance structure is defined as any of two or more possible structures of the compound. These structures have the identical geometry but have different arrangements of the paired electrons. Thus, we can say that the resonating structure are just the way of representing the same molecule.

First we have to determine the Lewis-dot structure of SO_4^{2-}.

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, SO_4^{2-}

As we know that sulfur and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in SO_4^{2-} = 6 + 4(6) + 2 = 32

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 12 number of bonding electrons and 20 number of non-bonding electrons.

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure and resonating structure of SO_4^{2-} is shown below.

What volume of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed to prepare eight 3 ounce bottles of 10% tca solution?
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .

Explanation:

Let the volume of 24% trichloroacetic acid solution be x

Volume of required 10% trichloroacetic acid solution =8 bottles of 3 ounces

= 24 ounces = 709.68 mL

(1 ounces =  29.57 mL)

Amount of trichloroacetic acid in 24% solution of x volume of solution will be equal to amount of trichloroacetic acid in 10% solution of volume 709.68 mL.

x\times \frac{24}{100}=709.68 mL\times \frac{10}{100}

x = 295.7 mL

295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .

Can we create matter? Why or why not?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The first law of thermodynamics doesn't actually specify that matter can neither be created nor destroyed So yes we can create matter because matter is every where buildings ,structures etc. So the answer is yes!
