Which has a greater volume, 10 grams of water or 10 grams of acetone?

Chemistry

WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago
6 0

Density is defined as the ratio of mass to the volume.

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}          (1)

Mass of water = 10 grams

Mass of acetone  = 10 grams

Density of water  = 1 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Density of acetone  = 0.7857 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Put the value of density of water and its mass in equation (1)

1 \frac{g}{cm^{3}} =  \frac{10 g}{volume}

Volume of water =  10 cm^{3}

Put the value of density of acetone and its mass in equation (1)

0.7857 \frac{g}{cm^{3}} =  \frac{10 g}{volume}

Volume of acetone = 12.72 cm^{3}

Thus, volume of acetone is more than volume of water because the density of acetone is lower.

How far can sound travel through rubber per second?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as a solid, liquid, or gas. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly as solids. And gases are very loosely packed. The spacing of the molecules enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas. Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air. This is why whales can communicate over huge distances in the oceans. Sound waves travel about thirteen times faster in wood than air. They also travel faster on hotter days as the molecules bump into each other more often than when it is cold.

A 2.0 L container of nitrogen gas had a pressure of 3.2 atm. What volume would be necessary to decrease the pressure to 1.0 atm
beks73 [17]

Answer:

6.4 L

Explanation:

When all other variables are held constant, you can use Boyle's Law to find the missing volume:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

In this equation, "P₁" and "V₁" represent the initial pressure and volume. "P₂" and "V₂" represent the final pressure and volume. You can find the theoretical volume by plugging the given values into the equation and simplifying.

P₁ = 3.2 atm                      P₂ = 1.0 atm

V₁ = 2.0 L                          V₂ = ? L

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂                                                    <----- Boyle's Law

(3.2 atm)(2.0 L) = (1.0 atm)V₂                        <----- Insert values

6.4 = (1.0 atm)V₂                                           <----- Simplify left side

6.4 = V₂                                                        <----- Divide both sides by 1.0
