You are determining the density of an unknown solid. You figure out the volume by water displacement. Then you weigh the solid,

but forget to dry it off first. The calculated density will be larger, smaller, or the correct value? Why?

Answer:

The calculated density will be larger

Explanation:

The calculated density will be <u>larger</u>. Because, the volume is taken accurately, by the water displacement method. But, when we the took the mass, the water was present on the unknown solid. So, the mass of that water was added to the original mass of the solid. Hence, the mass measured was larger than the original mass. We, know from the formula of density that density is directly proportional to the mass of the object.

Density = Mass/Volume

Hence, the larger measured mass means the larger value of density.

The new fossil i.e, Fossil B (2,000 year old) contains more carbon-14 than the old fossil i.e, Fossil A (5,000 years old ) does.

<h3>What are Fossils ?</h3>

Fossils are the preserved left materials of ancient organisms in trace form.

Fossils are not just the remains of the organism But also the rocks.

Carbon 14 works to analyse the period organic remains that are between 100 years old (minimum) and about 50,000 years old, (maximum).

If it is new, than not enough time has passed for radioactive decay to produce and if it is older than that, the amount of radioactive decay has dropped so less amount which means that anything beyond 50,000 years old becomes gibberish and may lead to high or low (usually low) concentration.

Hence,the new fossil Fossil B (2,000 year old) contains more carbon-14 than the older Fossil A (5,000 years old ) does.

sanitary pads and diapers contain higher phthalate contents than those in common commercial plastic products
Vitek1552 [10]

The correct answer is because sanitary pads and diapers are in direct contact with external genitalia for an extended period of time, a significant amount of VOCs or phthalates may be absorbed into the reproductive system.

Sanitary pads and diapers are made of synthetic plastic materials that can leach into the environment when used. The amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (methylene chloride, toluene, and xylene) and phthalates (DBP, DEHP, DEP, and BBP) found in sanitary pads and diapers were measured in this study. VOC and phthalate concentrations in sanitary pads varied by 5,900 and 130 times, respectively. VOC and phthalate concentrations in diapers varied by three and sixty-three times between brands. The VOC concentrations in sanitary pads and diapers were comparable to those in residential air. However, sanitary pads and diapers had significantly higher phthalate concentrations than common commercial plastic products.

Cl2 + 2KBr - Br2 + 2KCI
marishachu [46]
The molar mass of potassium chloride is 74.5513g/mol, and the molar mass of potassium bromide is 119.002g/mol. You first need to find how many moles are in the given sample, so you divide the mass by the molar mass of potassium bromide. You don’t necessarily need to convert the mole ratio, since both the potassium chloride and potassium bromide have 2 moles in the chemical equation. Lastly, you multiply the moles at this point by the molar mass of potassium chloride, and you get your final answer.

Answer: 222.91g KCl
