The correct answer is 2.70 × 10² g or 270 g.  

It is given, that the density of a metal is 9.80 g/ml.  

Let the mass of a sample of metal be x.  

The sample of metal is dropped in 28.9 ml of water, due to which the volume of the water increases to 56.4 ml.  

In order to calculate the mass of a metal, there is a need to use the formula, mass = density * volume

Mass = (9.80 g/ml) (56.4 ml - 28.9 ml)

= (9.80 g/ml) (27.5 ml)

= 2.70 × 10² g or 270 g

Which of the following correctly represents the transmutation in which a curium-242 nucleus is bombarded with an alpha particle
Alekssandra [29.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.

The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:

_{96}^{242}\textrm{Cm}+_4^2\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{98}^{245}\textrm{Cf}+_0^1\textrm{n}

The product formed in the nuclear reaction are californium-245 nucleus and a neutron particle.

What happens to the population size of each of the pond organisms when the perch population size is decreased? How many of the s
lana [24]
I found a presentation of Food web of a pond that will greatly connect with the above problem.  http://www.eduweb.com/portfolio/earthsystems/food/foodweb4.html

Normal setting:
Species        Pop. size
Blue heron   Medium
Perch            Medium
Bass              Medium
Minnows      Medium
Inverts          Medium
Algae           Medium

If PERCH population size decreases, 
Species        Pop. sizeBlue heron   LowPerch            LowBass              MediumMinnows      HighInverts          HighAlgae           Low

As you can see, 4 other species are affected when the Perch population size decreased. Bass is not affected.

A solution of rubbing alcohol is 68.6 % (v/v) isopropanol in water. How many milliliters of isopropanol are in a 88.2 mL sample
KonstantinChe [14]


From the information given, the total volume of  rubbing alcohol is 88.2 ml

68.6 % of this volume is isopropanol. 

We will assume 88.2 ml represents 100% volume, so the volume of water will be 31.4 %

The volume of isopropanol is

68.6/100 x 88.2 → 0.686 × 88.2 = 60.505 ml

The volume of isopropanol is 60.5 ml.

Volume of water will be 88.20 - 60.5 = 27.7 ml

(27.7 / 88.2 × 100 = 31.4% )

Adding 60.5 ml of isopropanol to 27.7 ml of water to make up 88.2 ml will give 68.6 % v/v isopropanol to water  solution.
