Debbie was doing a science lab, and she was instructed to decide whether a piece of plastic would float or sink without actually

putting the plastic in the water. How could she do this?

Find the density of the plastic. if the density is less than that of water, it's going to float. If it's more than the density of water, then it's going to sink.

Vanyuwa [196]

Let's note that 1 pint = 473.1765 mL, so 11 pints should be 5204.9415 mL.

We make a proportion out of the word problem

(85 mg glucose/ 100 mL) times (1 g/ 1000 mg) = 4.4242 grams of glucose

How many moles are in a 12.0 g sample of NiC12
Nady [450]

Answer:

0.17 moles

Explanation:

In the elements of the periodic table, the atomic mass = molar mass. <u>Ex:</u> Atomic mass of Carbon is 12.01 amu which means molar mass of Carbon is also 12.01g/mol.

In order to find the # of moles in a 12 g sample of NiC-12, we will need to multiply the number of each atom by its molar mass and then add the masses of both Nickel and C-12 found in the periodic table:

  • Molar Mass of Ni (Nickel): 58.69 g/mol
  • Molar Mass of C (Carbon): 12.01 g/mol

Since there's just one atom of both Carbon and Nickel, we just add up the masses to find the molar mass of the whole compound of NiC-12.

  • 58.69 g/mol of Nickel + 12.01 g/mol of Carbon = 70.7 g/mol of NiC-12

There's 12g of NiC-12, which is less than the molar mass of NiC-12, so the number of moles should be less than 1. In order to find the # of moles in NiC-12, we need to do some dimensional analysis:

  • 12g NiC-12 (1 mol of NiC-12/70.7g NiC-12) = 0.17 mol of NiC-12
  • The grams cancel, leaving us with moles of NiC-12, so the answer is 0.17 moles of NiC-12 in a 12 g sample.

<em>P.S. C-12 or C12 just means that the Carbon atom has an atomic mass of 12amu and a molar mass of 12g/mol, or just regular carbon.</em>

The SI unit of weight is the same as that of force. What does this tell us about weight? Explain.
masya89 [10]

Answer:

It shows that weight is a form of force.

Explanation:

Basically, weight is the force exerted by your mass multiplied by the gravitational acceleration of the place you're standing in.

A solution containing equal numbers of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions is
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: Neutral

Explanation:

A neutral solution is a solution whose pH is 7.

That means that this solution has the same amount of H⁺ and OH⁻.

Examples of neutral solutions:

- distilled water

- sugar solution

- table salt

- cooking oil.

The estimated costs for remodelling the interior of an apartment are: three 1-gallon cans of paint at $15.44 each, two paint bru
Vlad1618 [11]

The total estimated cost with the appropriate significant figures is

$195,13.

Any two non-zero digits that are separated by a zero are important. For instance, the number 108.0097 has seven significant digits. Every zero that is both to the right and left of a non-zero digit and the decimal point is never meaningful. For instance, the number 0.00798 had three significant digits.

Simply multiply the required number of goods by their individual costs, then add them all up to calculate this:

3*13,69= 41,07 2*9,53=19,06 \s1*135= 135

Total cost: $41,07 plus $19,06 plus 135 equals $55,13.

Thus, the overall price will be $195,13.
