Barium is a very reactive metal in the presence of oxygen and water, thus its density cannot be measured by water displacement.

Instead, mesitylene (C9H12, density = 0.86370 g/mL (at 20 o C)) is used. 77.240 g of Ba is placed into a flask, and mesitylene is added so that together the total volume is 100.00 mL. The mass of the mesitylene and Ba together is 148.792 g. What is the density (in g/mL) of the Ba at 20 o C?

Answer:

The correct answer is 4.502 g per ml.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, the sum of the mass of mesitylene and barium together is 148.792 grams. The mass of barium given is 77.240 grams. Therefore, the mass of mesitylene will be,  

Mass of mesitylene = Total mass - Mass of barium

= 148.792 - 77.240

= 71.552 grams

The density of mesitylene is 0.86370 g per ml. To calculate the volume of mesitylene, the formula to be used is,  

Volume = mass / density. Now, putting the values we get,  

Volume = 71.552 / 0.86370 = 82.8436 ml.  

As the total volume is 100 ml, therefore, the volume of Ba will be,  

Volume of Ba = 100-82.8436 = 17.1564 ml

The density of Ba at 20 degree C can be calculated by using the formula,  

Density = mass / volume. Now putting the values we get,  

Density = 77.240 g / 17.1564 ml  

= 4.502 g per ml

Determine the number of atoms of O in 92.3 moles of Cr3(PO4)2
Irina18 [472]

739 is the number of atoms of O in 92.3 moles of Cr3(PO4)2.

Explanation:

Molecular formula given is  = Cr3(PO4)2

number of moles of the compound is 92.3 moles

number of 0 atoms in 92.3 moles =?

From the chemical formula 1 mole of the compound has 8 atoms of oxygen

So, it can be written as

1 mole Cr3(PO4)2 has 8 atoms of oxygen

92.3 moles of Cr3(PO4)2 has x atoms of oxygen

\frac{8}{1} = \frac{x}{92.3}

x = 8 x 92.3

x = 738.4 atoms

There will be 739 oxygen atoms in the 92.3 moles of Cr3(PO4)2.

From a scientific viewpoint, why do many desert dwellers elect to wear white or light-colored garments
alexandr1967 [171]
Darker colors absorb sunlight more, so it will become hotter. Lighter colored clothes will better reflect sun so they will be less hot.

Hope that helped

A student measures the mass of a 6.0 cm3 block of brown sugar to be 10.0 g. What is the density of the brown sugar?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

1.67g/cm3

Explanation:

The formula for density is d=\frac{m}{v} . The m variable stands for mass and the v variable stands for volume.

The mass of the brown sugar is 10.0g and the volume is 6.0cm3, so we can plug those values into the equation.

d=\frac{10g}{6cm^{3} }

d=1.67\frac{g}{cm^{3} }

Rounded to 3 significant figures, the density of the block of brown sugar is 1.67 g/cm3. If the mass is in grams and the volume is in cm3, the unit for the final answer is \frac{g}{cm^{3} } (grams per centimetres cubed).
