A cube of zinc and a cube of silver have the same volume. The mass of the zinc is 55lbs (pounds). What is the mass of the silver

in kg (kilograms)?
Chemistry

Dovator [93]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Convert 55lbs to kg

(55 lb)*(453.6 g/lb) = 24948 g or 249.48 kg

Density of zinc = 7140 kg/m^3

Find the volume occupied by 249.48 kg:

  (249.48 kg)/(7140 kg/m^3) = 0.055 m^3

Density of silver = 10,490 kg/m^3

Mass of Ag in 0.055m^3:

  (0.055m^3)*(10,490 kg/m^3) = 577 kg

a student determined in the laboratory that the percent by mass of water in cus04 5h20 is 38.0% if the accepted value is 40% wha
IrinaVladis [17]
Percent error is [(abs(experimental - actual))/(actual)] * 100
(38.0 - 40.0 ) / 40.0 = 2.0 / 40 =  0.05 
0.05 * 100 = 5
since there are 2 sigfigs, the answer is 5.0 %

I made the 2 positive since the absolute value of 38.0 - 40.0 was taken
There are only 2 sigfigs because of the subtraction of 38.0 - 40.0 gives 2.0, only 2 sigfigs

The rate (in mg carbon/m3/h) at which photosynthesis takes place for a species of phytoplankton is modeled by the function p = 1
maxonik [38]

The given function is:

P = 120 i / (i^2 + i + 9)

or

P = 120 i (i^2 + i + 9)^-1

<span>The maxima point is obtained by taking the 1st derivative of the function then equating dP / di = 0:</span>

dP / di = 120 (i^2 + i + 9)^-1 + (-1) 120 i (i^2 + i + 9)^-2 (2i + 1)

setting dP / di =0 and multiplying whole equation by (i^2 + i + 9)^2:

0 = 120 (i^2 + i + 9) – 120i (2i + 1)

Dividing further by 120 will yield:

i^2 + i + 9 – 2i^2 – i = 0

-i^2 + 9 =0

i^2 = 9

<span>i = 3      (ANSWER)</span>

Therefore P is a maximum when i = 3

Checking:

P = 120 * 3 / (3^2 + 3 + 9)

P = 17.14

Why doesn't clouds formation take place until the dew point temperature is reached
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Clouds form when air reaches its dew point, the temperature when the air is saturated. This can happen in two ways. First, the air temperature can stay the same while the humidity increases. This is common in locations that are warm and humid.
