A body will float if its density is smaller than the density of water and will sink if its density is bigger than the density of water.

So, you need to calculate the density of the block.

Density = mass / volume

mass = 32 g

volumen = (3cm)^3 = 9 cm^3

=> density = 32 g / 9 cm^3 = 3.55 g/cm^3

Given that the density of water is 1.0 g /cm^3, the density of the block is greater and you conclude it will sink in water.

Answer: the block will sink in water

if a plot weight (in g) vs. volume (in ml) for a metal gave the equation y= 13.41x and r^2=0.9981 what is the density of the met
Bumek [7]

ANS: density = 13.41 g/ml

Density (d) of a substance is the mass (m) occupied by it in a given volume (v).

Density = mass/volume

i.e. d = m/v

m = (d) v -----(1)

The given equation from the plot of weight vs volume is :

y = 13.41 x ----(2)

Based on equations (1) and (2) we can deduce that the density of the metal is 13.41 g/ml

Which chemical reaction needs more energy to break bonds in the reactants
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:An endothermic reaction

Explanation: In an endothermic reaction, it takes more energy to break the bonds of the reactants than is released when the bonds in the products are formed. In an endothermic reaction, the temperature goes down.

In an chemicalbreaction involving Fe and S, it was found that 45.2 g of Fes was produced. If the percent yield of the reaction i
saw5 [17]

Answer:

47.8 g

Explanation:

Remember the equation for percent yield:

% yield = actual / theoretical

We're given two of the values in the question, so plug n' play:

0.945 = 45.2 / theoretical

theoretical = 47.8 g

Keep in mind you can use mass here without converting to moles because we're working with products only. If you were given a mass of reactants, you would need to convert to moles and using a balanced chemical equation find the corresponding moles of product produced.
