A standard backpack is approximately 30cm x 30cm x 40cm. Suppose you find a hoard of pure gold while treasure hunting in the wil

derness. How much mass would your backpack hold if you filled it with the gold? An average student has a mass of 70 kg. How do these values compare?

Explanation:

The dimensions of a standard backpack is 30cm x 30cm x 40cm

The mass of an average student is 70 kg

We know that, the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³.

Let m be the mass of the backpack. So,

\text{density}=\dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\\\m=d\times V\\\\m=19.3\ g/cm^3\times (30\times 30\times 40)\ cm^3\\\\m=694800\ g\\\\\text{or}\\\\m=694.8\ kg\approx 700\ kg

An average student has a mass of 70 kg. If we compare the mass of student and mass of backpack, we find that the backpack is 10 times of the mass of the student.

What happens when a chemical change occurs
Alona [7]
Chemical change happens when a substance combines with another substance to form a new substance. It produces chemical reactions and generally is not reversible except by further chemical reactions. Heat is sometimes produced in some reactions. When chemical reactions occur, the atoms are rearranged and an energy change happens along with it as new products are generations. At a molecular level, chemical changes involves the making or breaking of bonds between atoms. Some examples of chemical change are iron rusting (iron oxide forms) and bread rising (yeast converts carbohydrates into carbon dioxide gas).
