On the left hand side there is one of everything and then on the right, ther is one zinc, two chloride and 2 hydrogen atoms. It is unbalanced

Second one:

there are 8 carbons on both sides, 20 hydrogens on both sides and 26 oxygen on both sides. It is balanced

A student finds a piece of metal that she thinks is aluminum. She finds the volume to be 245 cm^3 and the mass to be 612 grams.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Density = 2.5 g/cm³ , The metal is aluminium.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio of the mass and the volume

Thus,

Density=\frac {Mass}{Volume}

Given that:

Mass  = 612 grams

Volume = 245 cm³

Thus, Density is:

Density=\frac {612}{245}\ g/cm^3

<u>Density = 2.5 g/cm³</u>

Metals are shiny with high density.

<u><em>The density of aluminium falls is approx 2.6 g/cm³ and not other metal's density falls in this range. </em></u>

<u><em>The metal is aluminium.</em></u>

Which statement describes how the Van Allen belts are formed? O when low-energy particles from the Sun bounce off Earth’s magnet
aniked [119]

Answer:

when high-energy particles from the sun are trapped by earth's magnetic field

Explanation:

it is produced by a "depression" in the Earth's magnetic field in that area, caused by the fact that the center of the Earth's magnetic field is deviated from its geographic center by 450 km. Such an anomaly is thought by some to be a side effect of a Geomagnetic Reversal. These radiation belts originate from the Earth's intense magnetic field that is the product of their rotation. That field traps charged particles (plasma) from the Sun (solar wind), as well as charged particles that are generated by interaction of the Earth's atmosphere with cosmic radiation and high-energy solar radiation.
