Answer : (C) Hafnium is the most likely identity of the given substance.
Solution : Given,
Mass of given substance (m) = 46.9 g
Volume of given substance (V) = 3.5 
First, find the Density of given substance.
Formula used :
Now,put all the values in this formula, we get
= 13.4 g/
So, we conclude that the density of given substance (13.4 g/) is approximately equal to the density of Mercury and Hafnium (13.53 and 13.31 g/ respectively).
According to the question the substance is solid at room temperature but Mercury is liquid at room temperature. So, Mercury is not identical to the given substance.
Another element i.e, Hafnium is the element whose density is approximately equal to the given substance and also solid at room temperature. And we know that the melting point of solid is high.
So, Hafnium is the most likely element which is the identity of the given substance.
Answer:
Calculate the pH of a buffer prepared by mixing 30.0 mL of 0.10 M acetic acid and 40.0 mL of 0.10 M sodium acetate.
Answer: Atoms are single neutral particles, and an ion is a positively or negatively charged particle.
Explanation:
Remember that
- For being a bond covalent ∆E<1.8
- For being a bond ionic ∆E>1.8
#1
Carbon is present so it's covalent
#2
#3
- P-H will hardly form a bond
#4
#5
The density of a material is the mass of the material per unit volume. Here the weight of the same metal is 44.40g, 40.58g and 38.35g having volume 4.8 mL, 4.7 mL and 4.2 mL respectively. Thus the density of the metal as per the given data are, 
= 9.25g/mL, 
= 8.634g/mL and 
= 9.130g/mL respectively.
The equation of the standard deviation is √{∑(x - 
)÷N}
Now the mean of the density is {(9.25 + 8.634 + 9.130)/3} = 9.004 g/mL.
The difference of the density of the 1st metal sample (9.25-9.004) = 0.246 g/mL. Squaring the value = 0.060.
The difference of the density of the 2nd metal sample (9.004-8.634) =0.37 g/mL. Squaring the value = 0.136.
The difference of the density of the 3rd metal sample (9.130-9.004) = 0.126 g/mL. Squaring the value 0.015.
The total value of the squared digits = (0.060 + 0.136 + 0.015) = 0.211. By dividing the digit by 3 we get, 0.070. The standard deviation will be 
. Thus the standard deviation of the density value is 0.265g/mL.
