Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf v\approx  1.79 \ cm^3}}

Explanation:

The formula of density is:

d=\frac{m}{v}

If the formula is rearranged for volume, it becomes:

v=\frac{m}{d}

The mass of the platinum is 38.5 grams.

The density is 21.5 grams per cubic centimeter.

m=38.5 \ g \\d= 21.5 \ g/cm^3

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{38.5 \ g}{ 21.5 \ g/cm^3}

Divide. Note that the grams (g) will cancel each other out.

v=1.79069767 \ cm^3

Round to 2 decimal places (hundredth place). The 0 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 9 in the hundredth place.

v\approx  1.79 \ cm^3

The volume is about <u>1.79 cubic centimeters.</u>

Answer:

D = 1.79 cm^3

Explanation:

Use the formula Volume = Mass / Density with what you've been given.

V = 38.5 g / 21.5 g/cm^3

V = 1.790697674 = 1.79 cm^3

Volume of Water -
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

3.8 g/mL

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of Water = 60 mL

Volume of Water + Object = 73.5 mL

Mass of object = 51.3 g

Density of object =?

Next, we shall determine the volume of the object. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of Water = 60 mL

Volume of Water + Object = 73.5 mL

Volume of object =?

Volume of object = (Volume of Water + Object) – (Volume of Water)

Volume of object = 73.5 – 60

Volume of object = 13.5 mL

Finally, we shall determine the density of the object as illustrated below:

Volume of object = 13.5 mL

Mass of object = 51.3 g

Density of object =?

Density = mass /volume

Density of object = 51.3 /13.5

Density of object = 3.8 g/mL

Thus, the density of the object is 3.8 g/mL

How many moles of nitrogen are in 2.0×10−2mole of quinine?
galben [10]

Answer: 4 x 10 ∧-2  moles of nitrogen.

Explanation:

The chemical formular for quinine is ; C20 H24 N2 O2

As can be seen from the chemical formular;

1 mole of quinine contains 2 moles of Nitrogen

Thus; 2.0 x 10 ∧-2 moles of quinine would contain

         2.0 x 10 ∧-2 x 2 = 4 x 10 ∧-2  moles of nitrogen.

 Therefore 4 x 10 ∧-2  moles of nitrogen are in 2.0×10−2mole of quinine

What is the empirical formula for a compound if a sample contains 3.72 g of P and 21.28 g of Cl?
Ainat [17]
Given 3.72 g of P and 21.28g of Cl, converting these to moles: ( 3.72 g P)(mol P/30.97 g P) = 0.12 mol P (21.28 g Cl)(mol Cl/35.45 g Cl) = 0.60 mol Cl P:Cl = 0.12/0.60, therefore P: Cl =1/5 Therefore, PCl5                                                      hope it helps

Sixty liters of a gas were collected over water when the barometer read 663 mmhg , and the temperature was 20∘c. what volume wou
lesya [120]
First, let's compute the number of moles in the system assuming ideal gas behavior. 

PV = nRT
(663 mmHg)(1atm/760 mmHg)(60 L) = n(0.0821 L-atm/mol-K)(20+273 K)
Solving for n,
n = 2.176 moles

At standard conditions, the standard molar volume is 22.4 L/mol. Thus,

Standard volume = 22.4 L/mol * 2.176 mol =<em> 48.74 L</em>
