A glass flask whose volume is 1000 cm3 at a temperature of 0.800 C is completely filled with mercury at the same temperature. Wh

en the flask and mercury are warmed together to a temperature of 52.0 C, a volume of 8.50 cm3 of mercury overflows the flask. If the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.80×10^−4 K−1, compute the coefficient of volume expansion of the glass.

Answer: the coefficient of volume expansion of glass = 0.86/(1000 * 52) = 0.00001654 per degree.

Explanation:

Original volume of mercury = 1000 cm3.

The final volume of mercury considering its volume expansion quotient = 1000 + 1000*(1.8*10^-4 *52) = 1000 + 9.36 = 1009.36 cm^3

Considering the glass as a non expanding substance, the complete excess volume of 9.36 cm3 of mercury should have overflown the container, but due to the expansion of glass, the capacity of mercury containment increases and so a lesser amount of mercury flows out.

The amount of mercury that actually flowed out = 8.50 cm3.

So, the expansion of the glass container = 9.36-8.50 = 0.86 cm3.

Using the formula for coefficient of expansion,

coefficient of volume expansion of glass = 0.86/(1000 * 52) = 0.00001654 per degree.

Lucia is playing with magnetic toy vehicles. She has two identical toy vehicles (purple and pink) that start on opposite sides o
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The potential energy of both toy vehicles (purple and pink) decreased. Since the pink toy was moved closer to the magnet, it will have less potential energy because of the short distance it will take to travel to the magnet. Although the purple toy is now closer to the magnet, it is still pretty far and will have a somewhat big potential energy when traveling to the magnet.

Calculate the volume of liquid in the tank sketched below. Give your answer in liters, and round to the nearest 0.1 L.
wariber [46]

Answer:

1.3 L

Explanation:

The volume of a rectangular cube can be calculated using the following formula:

Volume (L) = length (cm) x width (cm) x height (cm)

Keep in mind that 1 L = 1,000 cm³.

Before you can plug the values into the equation, you need to make sure they all have the same unit. Since the length is in meters (m), you need to first convert it to centimeters.

1 meter = 100 cm

 0.159 m           100 cm
---------------  x  ----------------  =  15.9 cm
                           1 m

Now, you can solve for the volume. To find the answer is the unit liters, you need to divide the volume by 1,000.

Volume = l x w x h

Volume = 15.9 cm x 10.5 cm x 7.7 cm

Volume = 1,285.5 cm³

Volume = 1.2855 L ------>  Volume = 1.3 L

Which of the following statements is false concerning the formula of a compound?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

B. The number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical  formula.

Explanation:

It is not always true that the number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.

The chemical formulae of a compound are of two main types;

  • The empirical formula is that which expresses the composition of a compound in the simplest whole number ratio.
  • The molecular formula shows the actual ratio of the atoms in a compound.

Sometimes the number of atoms in the molecular and empirical formula can be the same.

Also, the number of atoms in the molecular formula is always greater than that of the empirical formula when they are not the same.
