What substance will float on water?

Chemistry
1 answer:

C)soild,density=0.39g/cm³

Explanation:

A substance will float on another if its density is less than that of the other.

To do this for water, we usually compare the relative density of water to that of the substance.

Density is mass per volume of a substance. The unit is given as g/cm³ or kg/m³.

   Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}

mass is the amount of substance in a matter and volume is the space occupied by a substance.

  Relative density is the density of a substance compared to that of water;

 

Relative density = \frac{density of substance }{density of water}

  Density of water = 1g/cm³

For option c;

  Relative density = \frac{0.39}{1} = 0.39

We see that it has a R.D of less than 1 and it will float.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

a. 50ml b.10ml c. 6.097ml d. 190.1 ml

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law

Volume is inversely proportional to pressure at constant temerature

Mathematically

P1V1=P2V2

P1=Initial pressure=0.8atm

V1=Initial volume=25ml

making V2 the subject

at 0.4atm P2=0.4 atm,

V2=25×0.8/0.4

=50ml

at 2 atm V2=25×0.8/2

=10 ml

1mmHg=0.00131579

2500mmHg=3.28 atm

At 3.28 atm,V2=25×0.8/3.28

=6.097 ml

at 80.0 torr

1 torr=0.00131579

80 torr=0.1052 atm

at 0.1048 atm V2=25×0.8/0.1048

=190.1 ml

agasfer [191]
The correct response I believe is D. The reaction rate increases because the probability of collisions increases as there are more Zn atoms to react.
