suppose a scientist found a new matal-like substance in the desert. He determined its mass to be 20 grams. The volume was determ

Density = (mass) / (volume)

Density = (20 g) / (5 cm³)

<em>Density = 4 g/cm³</em> .

The density of the substance is greater than the density of water. A lump of the substance <em>will sink in water</em>, <u>unless</u> the lump is formed into a shape that displaces 20 cm³ of water or more, such as a tiny boat shape.

If 2 grams of element X combine with 4 grams of element Y to form compound XY, how many grams of element Y would combine with 11
kykrilka [37]
This is sort of simple.  2 grams of X can combine with 4 grams of Y to form XY.  Y is 2 times the amount of grams in X.  So if there are 11 grams of X there are 22 grams of Y to form XY.  Or you could take 11 divided by 2 is 5.5 and then multiply 4 by 5.5 to get 22.  If this is wrong please tell me I would be very happy to know.

If you shout on the moon,will the sound travel faster or slower than on earth?why?
labwork [276]
As long as the sound is inside the helmet of your space suit, it will travel
at the same speed as it would on Earth, through the same mixture of gases
at the same pressure.  Once it passes through the visor of your space helmet,
its 'speed' has no meaning, since there's nothing for sound to travel through on
the moon, and it doesn't travel at all.
