Answer:

1.6g/mL

Explanation:

Density equation is D=m/v

Density = g/mL

m=mass of sample in grams

v = volume of sample in mL

The volume of a square can be calculated by V=l*w*h.

In this case it is 5cm*5cm*5cm = 125cm^3

Since we know that 1cm^3 ~ 1mL we can convert the volume to mL as so:

125cm^3 (1mL/(1cm^3)) = 125mL

Then simply plug into the density equation:

D=200g/125mL = 1.6g/mL

How is electronegative related to covalent bonding?

serg [7]

Electronegativity is related to covalent bonding because when two atoms have the same electronegativity bond, they will form a pure covalent bond.

The ka values for several weak acids are given below. which acid (and its conjugate base) would be the best buffer at ph = 8.0?

Pie

One of the best buffer choice for pH = 8.0 is Tris with Ka value of 6.3 x 10^-9.

To support this answer, we first calculate for the pKa value as the negative logarithm of the Ka value:
pKa = -log Ka

For Tris, which is an abbreviation for 2-Amino-2-hydroxymethyl-propane-1,3 -diol and has a Ka value of 6.3 x 10^-9, the pKa is
pKa = -log Ka
= -log (6.3x10^-9)
= 8.2

We know that buffers work best when pH is equal to pKa:
pKa = 8.2 = pH

Therefore Tris would be a best buffer at pH = 8.0.

What is the correct sequence of coefficients when this equation is balanced? ___cs2(l) + ___o2(g) → ___co2(g) + ___so2(g)?

iris [78.8K]

Answer: the sequence is 1, 3, 1, 2.

Explanation:

1) Given equation: CS₂(l) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + SO₂(g)

2) To balance:

i) initially C is balanced: 1 atom in the left side, and 1 atom in the right sides

ii) Add coefficient 2 in front of SO₂ to have 2 atoms in each side.

That leads to: CS₂(l) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2SO₂(g)

iii) Count the O atoms; there are 2 atoms in the left, and 6 atoms in the right side. So, add a coefficient 3 in front of O₂ (in the left) and you get:

CS₂(l) + 3O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2SO₂(g)

4) You can verigy that now the equation is balanced:

C: 1 in the left, and 1 in the right

S: 2 in the left, and 2 in the right

O: 6 in the left, and 6 in the right.

5) So, the sequence is 1, 3, 1, 2.

Remember, when the none coefficient is shown it is because it is 1.

What is the mass of 5.00 moles of KaS04?

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

I assume you meant $\text{K}_{2}\text{SO}_{4}$ .

The atomic mass of potassium is 39.0983 g/mol.
The atomic mass of sulfur is 32.065 g/mol.
The atomic mass of oxygen is 15.9994 g/mol.

So, the formula mass of potassium sulfate is 2(39.0983)+32.065+4(15.9994)=174.2592 g/mol.

So, 5.00 moles have a mass of (5.00)(174.2592), which is about <u>870 g</u>
