If the length, width, and height of a box are 10.00 cm, 7.25 cm and 3.00 cm, respectively, what is the volume of the box in unit

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

For a: The volume of the box is 217.5 mL

For b: The volume of the box is 0.2175 L

Explanation:

The box is a type of cuboid.

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

$V=lbh$

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 10.00 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 7.25 cm

h = height of cuboid = 3.00 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$V=10.00\times 7.25\times 3.00=217.5cm^3$

For a:

To convert the volume of cuboid into milliliters, we use the conversion factor:

$1mL=1cm^3$

So,

$\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1mL}{1cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 217.5mL$

Hence, the volume of the box is 217.5 mL

For b:

To convert the volume of cuboid into liters, we use the conversion factor:

$1L=1000cm^3$

So,

$\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1L}{1000cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 0.2175L$

Hence, the volume of the box is 0.2175 L

Relate dark matter to the development of the universe after the Big Bang. In 3-5 sentences, speculate on how the development of

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Dark matter makes up 85% of the mass of the universe. Dark matter is not directly observable because it doesn't interact with any electromagnetic wave. In the development of the universe, without dark matter, the universe will not function, move or rotate as it does now (this speculation led to the quest to find the anomaly of mass and energy in the known universe, eventually leading to the idealization of dark matter) and will not have enough gravitational force to hold it together. After the big bang, the presence of dark matter and energy ensured that the newly formed universe didn't just float away, rather, it provided enough gravitational force to hold the universe while still allowing it to expand sufficiently.

The development of the universe would have been different without the universe in the sense that the young universe won't have enough mass to hold it together, and the universe would have simply floated apart. The behavior of the universe would have been different from what we observe now, and some physical laws that applies now will not apply to the universe.

In which of these diatomic molecules would you NOT find an octet of electrons

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each case.

1. Nitrogen (N₂):

With Z = 7, nitrogen has the following electronic configuration

1s²

2s² 2p³ → valence electrons

Since its valence electrons are 5, in the molecule one nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons with the other one, and each remains with an electron pair, so each atom has an octet of electrons.

2. Hydrogen (H₂):

With Z = 1, its electronic configuration is:

1s¹ → valence electron

In the molecule, the hydrogen atoms share the only electron they have, so they will have only 2 electrons around. In this diatomic molecule, we can not find an octet.

3. Oxygen (O₂):

Z = 8. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁴ → valence electrons

In the diatomic molecule, each oxygen atom shares 2 electrons with the other one and remains with 2 pairs of electrons, therefore, each oxygen atom has an octet.

4. Fluorine (F₂)

Z = 9. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁵ → valence electrons

In this molecule, each fluorine atom shares 1 electron with the other and remains with 3 pairs of electrons, hence, each fluorine atom has an octet of electrons around.

Finally, we can say that the hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

I hope it helps you!
