In an experiment, students were given an unknown mineral. The unknown mineral was placed in 150 ml of water. Once in the water,

the volume went up to 165 ml. Then when the same object was dried, then massed on a balance. It had a mass of 225 grams. What is the density of the unknown mineral?

Answer:

<h2>15 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

But from the question

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 165 - 150 = 15 mL

We have

density =  \frac{225}{15}  = 15 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>15 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which of the following statements best describes the properties of aluminum-28?
Contact [7]

d. When aluminum-28 undergoes beta decay, silicon-28 is produced.

Explanation:

When the nuclei of aluminium-28 decays, it produces silicon- 28:

    Aluminium    ²⁸₁₃Al

    Silicon 28      ²⁸₁₄Si

    beta particle     ⁰₋₁\beta

       

           ²⁸₁₃Al        →          ²⁸₁₄Si      +        ⁰₋₁\beta

This way, the mass and atomic number are conserved.

Conservation of mass number:

                28 = 28 + 0,  28 = 28

                 13 = 14 -1 ,       13 = 13

Calculate how to prepare 750 ml of 0.25 M sodium formate buffer at pH 4. Use your textbook to determine the molecular weight and
Neporo4naja [7]

Explanation:

Formation of formate buffer will be as follows.

              Formate buffer = HCOOH + HCOONa

Molar mass of HCOOH (M_{HCOOH} = 46 g/mol

Molar mass of HCOONa (M_{HCOONa} = 68 g/mol

         pK_{a} of HCOOH = 3.75

As,     [HCOO^{-}] = [HCOOH] + [HCOONa]

                               = [HCOONa]    (here, dissociation of HCOOH is negligible)

Its preparation will be as follows.

          750 ml of 0.25 M sodium formate buffer

Since, there are many combinations of salt + acid and among those possibilities one of them is as follows.

              HCOONa = 0.25 M in 400 ml solution

              HCOOH = x molat in 350 ml solution

Therefore as,     pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{N_{salt}V_{salt}}{N_{acid}V_{acid}}

                          4 = 3.75 + log \frac{0.25 \times 400}{x \times 350}

                         x = 0.16 M

Therefore, molarity of the formic acid acid is 0.16 M.

Now, calculate the weight of sodium formate as follows.

                 \frac{0.25 \times 400}{1000} \times 68

                 = 6.8 g

And, number of milliliters of formic acid required is 350 ml.
