A 6.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2600 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the sphere is immersed in a liqui

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of solid sphere(m) = 6.1 kg

Density of the metal = 2600 kg/m³

Thus volume of the liquid :

$Volume(V)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Density (\rho)}$

Volume of the sphere = 6.1 kg/2600 kg/m³ = 0.002346 m³

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of sphere (Archimedes' principle)

Volume displaced = 0.002346 m³

Buoyant force = $\rho\times gV$

Where

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume displaced

The free body diagram of the sphere is shown in image.

According to image:

$mg=\rho\times gV+T$

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 ms⁻²

Tension force = 26 N

Applying in the equation to find the density of the liquid as:

$6.1\times 9.81=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346+26$

$33.841=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346$

$\rho=\frac{33.841}{9.81\times 0.002346}$

$\rho=1470.43 kgm^3$

<u>Thus, the density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³</u>

Why the is ratio of magnesium ions to chloride ions in MgCl2 is 1:2?

Monica [59]

You should read up on Proust's law, better known as the Law of Definite Proportions. This is a chemical law that defines your question more generally, on why the ratio of elements and ions are always fixed.

Basically, this compound Magnesium(II) Chloride is MgCl2 because it has the same number of protons, neutrons, and electrons all the way. This defines the properties of the compound or atom.
