Answer:

Ro = 7.8 [g/cm³]

Explanation:

According to the principle of Archimedes, the volume of a body immersed in a liquid is equal to the volume displaced by water. That is, in this problem The displacement volume is equal to the new volume minus the original volume.

V_{n}=110[cm^{3} ]\\V_{o}=100[cm^{3} ]\\V_{d}=110-100 = 10 [cm^{3} ]

We now know that density is defined as the relationship between mass and volume.

Ro = m/V_{d}

where:

Ro = density [g/cm³]

m = mass = 78 [g]

Vd = displacement volume [cm³]

Ro = 78/10\\Ro = 7.8 [g/cm^{3} ]

iogann1982 [59]

Explanation:

0.566kg *(1mol/0.197 kg)= 2.87 mol gold

note how the units cancel out, if the units do not cancel out (kg/kg=1) then u did something wrong

Water vapor enters the atmosphere through
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Heat from the Sun causes water to evaporate from the surface of lakes and oceans. This turns the liquid water into water vapor in the atmosphere. Plants, too, help water get into the atmosphere through a process called transpiration! ... Water can also get into the atmosphere from snow and ice.

Most water vapor enters the atmosphere via evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation occurs when a single water molecule on a liquid water surface gains enough kinetic energy (often by solar radiation) to break the bond which holds the molecules together. Really Hopes this helps!

What two measurements are needed to determine density?
g100num [7]
Density is defined as (mass) per unit (volume).  So in order to calculate
the density of a glob of some substance, you pretty much have to measure
its mass and its volume.
