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.

When water reaches the metastable state, the phase of water will be?​
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

water, when the metastable state is reached, is cooled below the zero temperature. It freezes abruptly. this is called metastable. They are not at equilibrium per se; as at negative temperatures the only equilibrium state of water is ice.

What forces hold network solids together?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.

How many joules of energy are required to vaporize 13.1 kg of lead at its normal boiling point?
Korolek [52]

Answer: 1123000 Joules of energy are required to vaporize 13.1 kg of lead at its normal boiling point

Explanation:

Latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat required to convert 1 mole of liquid to gas at atmospheric pressure.

Amount of heat required to vaporize 1 mole of lead =  177.7 kJ

Molar mass of lead = 207.2 g

Mass of lead given = 1.31 kg = 1310 g       (1kg=1000g)

Heat required to vaporize 207.2 of lead = 177.7 kJ

Thus Heat required to vaporize 1310 g of lead =\frac{177.7}{207.2}\times 1310=1123kJ=1123000J

Thus 1123000 Joules of energy are required to vaporize 13.1 kg of lead at its normal boiling point
