Answer:

A lunar eclipse occurs at night and a solar eclipse occurs during the day. There are only certain times when either of them can occur. A lunar eclipse can only occur when the moon is directly opposite the Sun in the sky — a full moon. Even though there is a full moon each month, obviously a lunar eclipse does not occur on a monthly basis because the Sun isn't exactly in line with the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit is actually tilted 5 degrees more than that of the Earth; otherwise, we would see a lunar eclipse each month.

You drop an unknown substance that weighs 8.3g into a graduated cylinder with 6ml of water. The water rises to 8ml when you drop

valkas [14]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.15 g/mL</h3>

Explanation:

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

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question

mass of object = 8.3 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 8 - 6 = 2 mL

So we have

$density = \frac{8.3}{2} \\$

We have the final answer as

Concepts used:

1 mole of an element or a compound has 6.022 * 10²³ formula units

So, we can say that: Number of formula units = number of moles * 6.022*10²³

number of moles of an element or a compound = given mass/molar mass

__________________________________________________________

003 - Number of CaH₂ formula units in 6.065 grams

Number of Moles:

We know that the molar mass of CaH₂ is 42 grams/mol

Number of Moles of CaH₂ = given mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 6.065 / 42

Number of moles = 0.143 moles

Number of Formula units:

Number of formula units = number of moles * 6.022*10²³

= 0.143 * 6.022 * 10²³

= 0.86 * 10²³ formula units

__________________________________________________________

004 - Mass of 6.34 * 10²⁴ formula units of NaBF₄

Number of Moles:

We mentioned this formula before:

Number of formula units = number of moles * 6.022*10²³

Solving it for number of moles, we get:

Number of moles = Number of Formula units / 6.022* 10²³

replacing the variable

Number of moles = 6.34 * 10²⁴ / 6.022*10²³

Number of moles= 10.5 moles

Mass of 10.5 moles of NaBF₄:

Molar mass of NaBF₄ = 38 grams/mol

Mass of 10.5 moles = 10.5 * molar mass

Mass of 10.5 moles = 10.5 * 38

Mass = 399 grams

__________________________________________________________

005 - Number of moles in 9.78 * 10²¹ formula units of CeI₃

Number of Moles:

We have the formula:

Number of moles = Number of Formula units / 6.022* 10²³

replacing the variables

Number of Moles = 9.78 * 10²¹ / 6.022*10²³

Number of Moles = 1.6 / 10²

Number of Moles = 1.6 * 10⁻² moles OR 0.016 moles
