Answer:- C. Hafnium.

Solution:- Mass of the sample is 46.0 g and it's volume is 3.5cm^3 .

From mass and volume, we can calculate it's density using the formula:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

density=\frac{46.9g}{3.5cm^3}

density=\frac{13.4g}{cm^3}

On the basis of the density, this substance could either be mercury or hafnium. Since the substance is a solid at room temperature where as mercury is liquid. So, it can't be mercury.

The right choice is C) Hafnium.

Answer:

Explanation:

moler mass of Cu is 63.546 g/mol. Since 63.546 g of copper has 6.022 x 10 power(23) atoms (Avogadro's number). = 9.5 x 10(power)21 atoms of copper.

Calculate the molarity of a solution of Nach if it contains 7.2.g Nach in 100.0 mL of solution. andver: m Nach . .
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1.23 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M = n / V

M = molarity  

V = volume of solution in liter ,

n = moles of solute ,

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,  

Hence ,  

n = w / m

n = moles ,  

w = given mass ,  

m = molecular mass .

From the question ,

w = given mass of NaCl = 7.2 g

As we know , the molecular mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Moles is calculated as -

n = w / m  =  7.2 g / 58.5 g/mol = 0.123 mol

Molarity is calculated as -

V = 100ml = 0.1 L            (since , 1 ml = 1/1000L )

M = n / V  =  0.123 mol / 0.1 L = 1.23 M
