Which choice best describes what would happen if a cube with a density of 0.2 g/mL were placed in a container of water?

Chemistry

Andrew [12]3 years ago

Answer:

A. It would float with about 80% of the cube below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Explanation:

The choice that best describes what happens to cube of the given density value is that it would float with about 80% of the cube would be below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. The more mass a body has relative to volume, the great it's density. In short, density is directly proportional to mass and inversely related to volume.

The density of water is 1g/mL

If the density of the cube were to be the same with that of water, the substance will just mix up with water .

Here the density is less than that of water.

The density is 0.2g/mL

Therefore, 20% will stay afloat and 80% will be below the surface of the water.

A container is at a pressure of 3 atm and a temperature of 280K. What is the new temperature when the pressure is reduced to 1.5
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

140 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial pressure of the gas (P₁): 3 atm
  • Initial temperature of the gas (T₁): 280 K
  • Final pressure of the gas (P₂): 1.5 atm
  • Final temperature of the gas (T₂): ?

Step 2: Calculate the final temperature of the gas

We have a gas whose pressure is reduced. If we assume an ideal behavior, we can calculate the final temperature of the gas using Gay-Lussac's law.

T₁/P₁ = T₂/P₂

T₂ = T₁ × P₂/P₁

T₂ = 280 K × 1.5 atm/3 atm = 140 K

Give me a statement regarding the process of science discovery and development of atomic theory
matrenka [14]
Can you say please? Just kidding!
The process of science discovery depends upon changing your theories based upons new evidence from new experiments.  New technology allows for new experiments, leading to new theories.

What forces hold network solids together?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.
