The entire question says:

"A rock with a mass off 44.18 grams is dropped into a gratued cylinder. The water level in the cylinder rises from 15.20cm³ to 21.72cm³."

a) Calculate the volume of the rock.

The volume of the rock is equal the difference between the water level with the rock and the water level without the rock. That happened because when you put the rock inside the cylinder, the volume of it has been increased, and the volume of the rock is the value that increased. So, let's do this account:

$V_r$ is the volume of the rock.

$V_r=21.72 - 15.20\\V_r = 6.52$

$d=\frac{44.18}{6.52}$

Therefore, the volume of the rock is 6.52cm³

b) Calculate the density of the rock.

To calculate the density of some material, we should divide the mass of the material by its volume. Below, you can see the formula:

$\boxed{density=\frac{mass}{volume} }$

Now that we know about it, it is easier to solve our question. We just do this count. The volume is 6.52cm³ and the mass is 44.18g.

$d=\frac{m}{v} \\$

$d=\frac{44.18}{6.52}$

$d \approx 6.78$

So, the density of this rock is approximately 6.78g/cm³.

I hope I've helped. ^^

Enjoy your studies! \o/

Ammonium nitrate, a common fertilizer, is used as an explosive in fireworks and by terrorists. It was the material used in the t

Sladkaya [172]

Explanation:

The given balanced reaction is as follows.

$2NH_{4}NO_{3} \rightarrow 2N_{2} + O_{2} + 4H_{2}O$

It is given that mass of ammonium nitrate is 86.0 kg.

As 1 kg = 1000 g. So, 86.0 kg = 86000 g.

Hence, moles of $NH_{4}NO_{3}$ present will be as follows.

Moles of $NH_{4}NO_{3}$ = $\frac{mass given}{\text{molar mass of NH_{4}NO_{3}}}$

= $\frac{86000 g}{80.043 g/mol}$

= 1074.42 mol

Therefore, moles of $N_{2}$ , $O_{2}$ and $H_{2}O$ produced by 1074.42 mole of $NH_{4}NO_{3}$ will be as follows.

Moles of $O_{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2} \times 1074.42 mol$

= 537.21 mol

Moles of $N_{2}$ = $\frac{2}{2} \times 1074.42 mol$

= 1074.42 mol

Moles of $H_{2}O$ = $\frac{4}{2} \times 1074.42 mol$

= 2148.84 mol

Therefore, total number of moles will be as follows.

537.21 mol + 1074.42 mol + 2148.84 mol

= 3760.47 mol

According to ideal gas equation, PV = nRT. Hence, calculate the volume as follows.

PV = nRT

1 atm \times V = 3760.47 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 580 K[/tex] (as $307^{o}C$ = 307 + 273 = 580 K)

V = 179066.06 L

Thus, we can conclude that total volume of the gas is 179066.06 L.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

$\rm _{27}^{60}\text{Co} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} + \, _{28}^{60}\text{Ni}$

Explanation:

The unbalanced nuclear equation is

$\rm _{27}^{60}\text{Co} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} + \, ?$

Let's write the question mark as a nuclear symbol.

$\rm _{27}^{60}\text{Co} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} + \, _{Z}^{A}\text{X}$

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that the sums of the superscripts and the subscripts must be the same on each side of the equation.

Then

60 = 0 + A, so A = 60 - 0 = 60, and

27 = -1 + Z, so Z = 27 + 1 = 28

Your nuclear equation becomes

$\rm _{27}^{60}\text{Co} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} + \, _{28}^{60}\text{X}$

Element 28 is nickel, so the balanced nuclear equation is

$\rm _{27}^{60}\text{Co} \longrightarrow \, _{-1}^{0}\text{e} + \, _{28}^{60}\text{Ni}$

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction producing Cu(NO₃) is given below:

Cu(s)+ 4HNO₃(aq) ---> Cu(NO₃)(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of Cu(NO₃) is produced from 1 mole of copper. Therefore, 0.010 moles of Cu(NO₃) will be produced from 0.010 mole of copper.

Molar mass of copper = 64 g/mol

mass of copper = number of moles * molar mass

mass of copper = 0.01 mol * 64 g/mol = 0.64 g

Percentage by mass of copper in the 2.00 g sample = (0.64/2.00) * 100%

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%
