The metal = Platinum(Pt)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

FCC : Face centered cubic : the unit structures of the unit cell((other than BCC, HCP)

In FCC ⇒ atoms on every corner and side (total 4 atoms)

The length of the face diagonal (b) = 4 times the atomic radius  (r)

Formula :

\tt b=4r

\tt a=r\sqrt{8}

\tt V=16r\sqrt{2}=a^3

\tt \rho=\dfrac{n.Ar}{V.No}

Ar = atomic mass, g/mol

No = Avogadro number = 6.02.10²³

n = number of atoms

V = volume (cm³)

a = side length  

b = diagonal of the side surface  

r = atomic radius

a= 392 pm=3.92 x 10⁻⁸ cm

ρ = 21.45 g/cm³

\tt V=a^3\\\\V=(3.92\times 10^{-8})^3\\\\V=6.024\times 10^{-23}~cm^3

The atomic mass :

\tt 21.45~g/cm^3=\dfrac{4\times Ar}{6.024\times 10^{-23}\times 6.02\times 10^{23}}\\\\Ar=194.47\approx 195~g/mol

radius :

\tt a=r\sqrt{8}\\\\3.92\times 10^{-8}=r\sqrt{8}\\\\r=1.386\times 10^{-8}~cm

Element with atomic mass 195 g/mol and radius = 139 pm (1.386x10⁻⁸cm) = Platinum(Pt)

Which of the following reasons best explains why water isn
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

the wax is a nonpolar substance that will not mix with polar water

Explanation:

Water is polar by due to the uneven distribution of charge between the hydrogen and oxygen. T=This automatically eliminates options 3 and 4.

Wax on the other hand is a non polar substance. Due to this non polar characteristic, it would not dissolve in water. The correct option is;

- the wax is a nonpolar substance that will not mix with polar water

Determine the mass of each sample 1.55 kmol sulfur trioxide
xxMikexx [17]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of the sulfur trioxide = 1.55kmol = 1.55 x 10³mole

Unknown:

Mass of the sulfur trioxide = ?

Solution:

To solve for the mass of the sample of sulfur trioxide:

  •  Find the molar mass of the compound i.e SO₃

          atomic mass of S = 32g

                                    O = 16g

              molar mass = 32 + 3(16) = 80g/mol

  • Use the formula below:

           mass of SO₃ = number of moles x molar mass

           mass of SO₃ =  1.55 x 10³ x 80 = 124000g or 124kg
