Answer:

V = 5 cm³

ρ = 4 g/cm³

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the volume (V)

We have a wooden cuboid of dimensions 5 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm. We can calculate its volume using the following expression.

V = 5 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm

V = 5 cm³

Step 2: Calculate the density (ρ)

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

ρ = m / V

ρ = 20 g / 5 cm³

ρ = 4 g/cm³

How many moles of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are present in a 100-g sample of ascorbic acid?

Y_Kistochka [10]

There are:

3.41 moles of C

4.54 moles of H

3.40 moles of O.

Why?

To solve the problem, the first thing that we need to do is to write the chemical formula of the ascorbic acid.

$C_{6}H_{8}O_{6}$

Now, we know that there are 100 grams of the compound, so, the masses of each element will represent the percent in the compound.

We have that:

$C_{6}=12.0107g*6=72.08g\\\\H_{8}=1.008g*8=8.064g\\\\O_{6}=15.999g*6=95.994g\\\\C_{6}H_{8}O_{6}=72.08g+8.064g+95.994g=176.138g$

To know the percent of each element, we need to to the following:

$C=\frac{72.08g}{176.138g}*100=0.409*100=40.92(percent)\\\\H=\frac{8.064g}{176.138g}*100=4.58(percent)\\\\O=\frac{95.994}{176.138g}*100=54.49(percent)$

So, we know that for the 100 grams of the compound, there are:

40.92 grams of C

4.58 grams of H

54.49 grams of O

We know the molecular masses of each element:

$C=12.0107\frac{g}{mol}\\\\H=1.008\frac{g}{mol}\\\\O=15.999\frac{g}{mol}{mol}$

Now, to calculate the number of moles of each element, we need to divide the mass of each element by the molecular mass of each element:

$C=\frac{40.92g}{12.010\frac{g}{mol}}=3.41mol\\\\H=\frac{4.58g}{1.008\frac{g}{mol}}=4.54mol\\\\O=\frac{54.49g}{15.999\frac{g}{mol}}=3.40mol$

Hence, we have that there are 3.41 moles of C, 4.54 moles of H, and 3.40 moles of O.

name a household substance that could lower the pH of water leaving your home? increase the pH of water leaging your home? and w

Lady_Fox [76]

Bleach would increase the pH because Bleach is a basic substance with a pH of about 12

Soda would lower the pH because the pH of sodas is somewhere around 2.5 (this is for coke, other sodas are a bit different)
