Calculate the Density of the substances below to determine if they will float or sink in water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Reil [10]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

If the density of the object is more than that of water, it will sink. Otherwise it will float. The density of water is 1 g/mL.

Substance 1,

Mass, m = 450 g, Volume, V = 90 mL

Density = mass/volume

So,

d_1=\dfrac{450}{90}\\\\=5\ g/mL

It will sink.

Substance 2,

Mass, m = 35 g, Volume, V = 70 mL

Density = mass/volume

So,

d_2=\dfrac{35}{70}\\\\=0.5\ g/mL

It will float.

Substance 3,

Mass, m = 24 g, Volume, V = 12 mL

Density = mass/volume

So,

d_3=\dfrac{24}{12}\\\\=2\ g/mL

It will sink.

What is the mass of 2.50 moles of NaCl
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The mass of 2,50 moles of NaCl is 146, 25 g.

Explanation:

First we calculate the mass of 1 mol of NaCl, starting from the atomic weights of Na and Cl obtained from the periodic table. Then we calculate the mass of 2.50 moles of compound, making a simple rule of three:

Weight NaCl= Weight Na + Weight Cl=  23 g+ 35,5 g= 58, 5 g/ mol

1 mol ------ 58, 5 g

2,5 mol---x= (2,5 mol x 58, 5 g)/ 1 mol = <u>146, 25 g</u>
