Answer:
a) 
is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.
b) 
moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.
Explanation:
a) Mass of brick = 4.0 kg
1 mole = 
particles/ atoms/molecules
Mass of 
bricks :
is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.
b)
Mass of the Earth = M = 
Mass of 1 mole of brick = m=
Let the moles of brick with equal mass of the Earth be x.
moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.
Hey there!:
Volume = 175.4 mL
density = 0.8786 g/mL
mass = ?
Therefore:
D = m / V
0.8786 = m / 175.4
m = 0.8786 * 175.4
m = 154.10644 g
hope this helps!
Water is one of the few substances which expand in volume when frozen, compared to liquid. Usually substances condense when cooled, but at the point of freezing, when liquid water becomes solid ice, the molecules lock into a matrix in which there is more space between molecules - ice expands! This is why ice floats on liquid water.
It is this miracle which has shaped the planet and allowed life to thrive. Expansion of ice is responsible for much land-shaping erosion on land, the heaving off of boulders from mountain tops. And the floating of ice on lakes, rivers and oceans - if the frozen water was indeed more dense than liquid water, it would sink and pile up in the cold depths. There would be no life thriving under the ice, overwintering. It would all eventually freeze solid, and all the life forms with it.
