</h3><h2 /><h2 /><h2 /><h2 /><h2 />
A body at rest in a fluid is acted upon by a force pushing upward called the buoyant force, which is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. If the body is completely submerged, the volume of fluid displaced is equal to the volume of the body. That is how we find the Volume of the Irregularly shaped objects.
<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>FUN FACT:</h2>Archemedes the GREAT GREEK PHYSICIST was in a real problem finding out the formula of how to find the volume of irregular object. After countless failures in finding it, once he was going to get a apparently "BUBBLE BATH", So when he got into the tub the water displaced and got out from the tub resulting in the splash of water. His MIND CLICKED that we could find the volume by submerging the irregular object into the measured water and then substract the displaced water from it. He ran NAKED out of the house because of the happiness saying EUREKA! EUREKA! which literally means "I have found it". Thus this law of Archemedes is also called EUREKA LAW. So to simply remember how to find volume of irregular object keep EUREKA in mind.

Answer:
6.82g
0.59moles
Explanation:
1. What is the mass sample of 0.0500 moles of zinc chloride ?
Given parameters:
Number of moles ZnCl₂ = 0.05moles
Unknown:
Mass of the sample = ?
Solution:
To find the mass of a substance using the number of moles, it would be pertinent to understand what mole is.
A mole is a substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.
It relates to the mass using the expression below;
Mass of a substance = number of moles x molar mass
Molar mass of ZnCl₂;
Atomic mass of Zn = 65.4g/mol
Cl = 35.5g/mol
Molar mass = 65.4 + 2(35.5) = 136.4g/mole
Mass of a substance = 0.05 x 136.4 = 6.82g
2. How many moles of potassium sulfide are in a 65.50g sample?
Given parameters:
Mass of K₂S = 65.5g
Unknown:
Number of moles = ?
Solution:
The number of moles of any substance is related to mass using the expression below;
Number of moles =
Molar mass of K₂S = 2(39) + 32 = 110g/mol
Number of moles = = 0.59moles
