Answer:

The density is 1.59 g/mL. Therefore, the substance will NOT float in water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of empty flask = 245.8 g

Mass of flask + CCl₄ = 444.6 g

Volume of CCl₄ = 125 mL

Density of CCl₄ =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of carbon tetrachloride, CCl₄. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of empty flask = 245.8 g

Mass of flask + CCl₄ = 444.6 g

Mass of CCl₄ =.?

Mass of CCl₄ = (Mass of flask + CCl₄) – (Mass of empty flask)

Mass of CCl₄ = 444.6 – 245.8

Mass of CCl₄ = 198.8 g

Finally, we shall determine the density of carbon tetrachloride, CCl₄ as follow:

Mass of CCl₄ = 198.8 g

Volume of CCl₄ = 125 mL

Density of CCl₄ =?

Density = mass / volume

Density of CCl₄ = 198.8 / 125

Density of CCl₄ = 1.59 g/mL

The density of water is 1 g/mL. Since the density of carbon tetrachloride, CCl₄ (i.e 1.59 g/mL) is bigger than that of water, the substance will not float in water.

Use the Polygon tool to draw the image of the given quadrilateral under a dilation with a scale
Nataly [62]

Answer: See the picture attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Dilation is defined as  a transformation in which the image and the pre-image have the same shape, but their sizes are different.

When the scale factor is greater than 1, the image obtained after the  dilation is greater than the pre-image and it is an "Enlargement".

When the scale factor is is between 0 and 1,  the image obtained after the  dilation is smaller than the pre-image and it is an "Reduction".

In this case we know that the scale factor is:

scale\ factor=\frac{2}{3}

Since:

0

It is a Reduction.

You can identify that the vertices of the quadritaleral are:

(-3,0),(-9,-3),(-6,-9),(3,-6)

 So you need to multiply the coordinates of eac vertex by \frac{2}{3} in order to get the coordinates of the image.

Then, you get:

(\frac{(-3)(2)}{3},0*\frac{2}{3})=(-2,0)\\\\(\frac{(-9)(2)}{3}),\frac{(-3)(2)}{3})=(-6,-2)\\\\(\frac{(-6)(2)}{3},\frac{(-9)(2)}{3})=(-4,-6)\\\\(3*\frac{2}{3},\frac{(-6)(2)}{3})=(2,-4)

Now you can plot the points and draw the image of the given quadrilateral.

See the picture attached.
