Maurinko [17]
Barium has a 2+ charge as it is in group 2 in the periodic table and so it has two electrons in its outer shell and chloride has a -1 charge on its chloride ion. So we will need two of the chloride ions as we have a 2+ charge to match the amount of charge on one barium ion- forming barium ion

At room temperature (20°C} and pressure, the density of air is 1.189 g/L. An object will float in air if its density is less tha
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Explanation:

Density =\frac{Mass}[Volume}

Density of the air ,d= 1.189 g/L

(a) Density of the evacuated ball

Mass of the ball ,m = 0.12 g

Volume of the ball =V=560 cm^3=560 ml=0.560 L

D =\frac{0.12 g}{0.560 L}=0.214 g/L

D<d, teh evacuated ball will flaot in air.

(b) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of carbon dioxide gas = d_1=1.830 g/L

Mass of the carbon dioxide gas :

1.830 g/L\times 0.560 L=1.0248 g

Total density of filled ball with carbon dioxide gas:

\frac{0.12 g+1.0248 g}{0.560 L}==2.044 g/L

The ball filled with carbon dioxide will not float in the air because total density of filled ball is greater than the density of an air.

(c) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of hydrogen gas = d_2=0.0899 g/L

Mass of the hydrogen gas :

1.830 g/L\times 0.560 L=0.050344 g

Total density of filled ball with hydrogen gas:

\frac{0.12 g+0.050344 g}{0.560 L}==0.3041 g/L

The ball filled with hydrogen will float in the air because total density of filled ball is lessor than the density of an air.

(d) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of oxygen gas = d_3=1.330 g/L

Mass of the oxygen gas :

1.330 g/L\times 0.560 L=1.7448 g

Total density of filled ball with oxygen gas:

\frac{0.12 g+1.7448 g}{0.560 L}=1.5442 g/L

The ball filled with oxygen will not float in the air because total density of filled ball is greater than the density of an air.

(e) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of nitrogen gas = d_4=1.165 g/L

Mass of the nitrogen gas :

1.165 g/L\times 0.560 L=0.6524 g

Total density of filled ball with nitrogen gas:

\frac{0.12 g+0.6524 g}{0.560 L}==1.3792 g/L

The ball filled with nitrogen will not float in the air because total density of filled ball is greater than the density of an air.

f) Mass must be added to sink the ball = m

Density of ball > Density of the air ; to sink the ball.

\frac{0.12g +m}{0.560L}>1.189 g/L

m > 0.54584 g

For any case weight added to ball to make it sink in an air should be grater than the value of 0.54584 grams.

If you fill a glass to the brim with ice water and the ice melts, what will happen?
Natalija [7]

Hello There!

When the ice melts, the water level will drop slightly but not much.

REMEMBER Ice expands so when ice melts, it shrinks back to the state of being liquid.
