Answer:

58mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Density of water = 1g/mL

Mass of object = 58g

Unknown:

The volume the object must have to be able to float in water = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we know that the object must have density value equal to that of water or less than that of water to be able to float.

We then set its density to that of water;

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Volume = $\frac{mass}{density}$

So;

Volume = $\frac{58}{1}$ = 58mL

The decomposition of NI3 to form N2 and I2 releases −290.0 kJ of energy. The reaction can be represented as 2NI3(s)→N2(g)+3I2(g)

EastWind [94]

Answer:

-7.34 kilo Joules is the change in enthaply when 20.0 grams of nitrogen triiodide decomposes.

Explanation:

Mass of nitrogen triiodide = 20.0 g

Moles of nitrogen triiodide = $\frac{20.0 g}{395 g/mol}=0.05063 mol$

$2NI_3(s)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3I_2(g), \Delta H_{rxn}=-290.0 kJ$

According to reaction, 2 moles of nitrogen triiodide gives 290.0 kilo Joules of heat on decomposition ,then 0.05063 moles of nitrogen triiodide will give :

$\frac{-290.0 kJ}{2}\times 0.05063=-7.34 kJ$

-7.34 kilo Joules is the change in enthaply when 20.0 grams of nitrogen triiodide decomposes.

Why are we pulled to the center of the Earth and not into the much larger sun?

katrin [286]

Answer:

The sun's gravity pulls on the earth, and the earth pulls back on the sun at the same time. This is why the center of the solar system is not the center of the sun. As one gravitational body gets bigger than the other, it circles closer to the center of the system (shown in red).

The cultural pest control is one of the oldest methos of pest control. This form of pest control is less practiced these days since curative form of pest control methods have been invented. The cultural pest control method is a preventive method of managing pest population. This pest control method takes long days of planning and execution.

<u>In this form of pest control method, the farmer had to change the timings of his farming operations in his field. This method requires careful timing in seeding and planting. This method of pest controlling requires knowledge and skills of fields</u>.
