<span>The unknown substance is silver.
I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so
273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL
Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following:
10.07 Actinium
10.22 Molybdenum
10.5 Silver
11.35 Lead
And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>
I think the answer is repulsive.... Sorry if I get this wrong? :)
Answer:
2625 m deep
Explanation:
Let the sound speed in sea water be 1500 m/s. If he hears the echo 3.5s after the strike, then the sound would have traveled a distance of 1500 * 3.5 = 5250 m to the bottom and back. This would mean the ocean is 5250 / 2 = 2625 m deep.
