Answer:

B. The air pressure would increase 2X

Explanation:

Pressure = density × acceleration due to gravity × height

p = ρ × g × h

Pressure is force per unit area

p = F/a

Density is mass per unit volume

Pressure is directly proportional to density hence, any change in the density of a body directly affects the change in pressure of the body and vice versa.

Decide which element probably forms a compound with oxygen that has a chemical formula most and least similar to the chemical fo
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Most similar   -----  Lithium

Least similar   ----  Nitrogen

Explanation:

Cesium is an element on the periodic with the atomic number 133. It lies in group 1 (i.e., the alkali metals) and period 6 on the periodic table. The oxidation state of group 1 metals is +1. Cesium forms an oxide with oxygen as  Cs_2O.

The most similar compound to this chemical compound is Lithium because Lithium happens to be in the same group one metal with Cesium and forms the compound Li_2O with the oxygen

The least similar compound nitrogen due to fact that it is an oxide that is covalent in nature and lies between-group 3 -17  to form an NO_2 with oxygen.

A solid piece of lead has a mass of 23.94g and a volume of 2.10cm^3. from these data, calculate the density of lead in si units
jeyben [28]
A density of a substance is constant. It is an extensive property, meaning it does not depend on the amount of substance because it is a ratio of mass to volume. No matter how much of each there is, they would always have a fixed ratio called density. For lead, the density is

Density = mass/volume
Density = 23.94 g/ 2.10 cm³
Density = 11.4 g/cm³
