Answer: b) Less dense
Explanation:
Differences in density is one reason objects float or sink.
An object more dense than the fluid in which it is immersed will sink, while objects less dense than the fluid in which it is immersed will float to the surface.
But objects floats at constant level if the density is equal to the density of the fluid in which it is immersed; it neither rises nor sinks in the fluid in this case.
Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is 
Explanation : Given,
Percentage of C = 38.8 %
Percentage of H = 16.2 %
Percentage of N = 45.1 %
Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.
Mass of C = 38.8 g
Mass of H = 16.2 g
Mass of N = 45.4 g
To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:
Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.
Moles of Carbon =
Moles of Hydrogen = 
Moles of Nitrogen = 
Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.
For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 3.23 moles.
For Carbon = 
For Hydrogen = 
For Oxygen = 
Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.
The ratio of C : H : N = 1 : 5 : 1
Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is 
THE ANSWER IS: <u>737.5</u>
I JUST TOOK THE QUIZ!!!!
Answer: -2.373 x 10^-24J/K(particles
Explanation: Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness of a system which is a function of the state of a system and depends on the number of the random microstates present.
The entropy change for a particle in a system depends on the initial and final states of a system and is given by Boltzmann equation as
S = k ln(W) .
where S =Entropy
K IS Boltzmann constant ==1.38 x 10 ^-23J/K
W is the number of microstates available to the system.
The change in entropy is given as
S2 -S1 = kln W2 - klnW1
dS = k ln (W2/W1)
where w1 and w2 are initial and final microstates
from the question, W2(final) = 0.842 x W1(initial), so:
= 1.38*10-23 ln (0.842)
=1.38*10-23 x -0.1719
= -2.373 x 10^-24J/K(particles)
