The Concept:

We are given the density of a sample of the metal = 11.4 grams / cm³

and we need to find the volume occupied by a sample of 30.5 grams

For this solution, we will use dimensional analysis

from the given information, we can also say that the density of the metal is:

1 cm³ / 11.4 grams

If we multiply this value by 30.5 grams, the 'grams' in the numerator and the denominator will cancel out and we will be left with the volume occupied by 30.5 grams of the metal

Solving for the volume:

$\frac{ 1 cm^{3} }{11.4 grams}$ X 30.5 grams = (30.5 / 11.4) cm³

Volume of 30.5 grams of the sample = 2.68 cm³

Why is it illegal to manufacture fireworks without a license

victus00 [196]

Illegal Explosives. Illegal explosives associated with the fireworks season are inherently dangerous because of their composition and unpredictability. Homemade explosives can pose a particular risk for injury because the people making them often lack knowledge and experience in manufacturing fireworks.

1. What do producers do, and what is another name for them?

Neko [114]

Producers are the foundation of every food web in every ecosystem—they occupy what is called the first tropic level of the food web. The second trophic level consists of primary consumers—the herbivores, or animals that eat plants. At the top level are secondary consumers—the carnivores and omnivores who eat the primary consumers. Ultimately, decomposers break down dead organisms, returning vital nutrients to the soil, and restarting the cycle. Another name for producers is autotrophs, which means “self-nourishers.” There are two kinds of autotrophs. The most common are photoautotrophs—producers that carry out photosynthesis. Trees, grasses, and shrubs are the most important terrestrial photoautotrophs. In most aquatic ecosystems, including lakes and oceans, algae are the most important photoautotrophs.
