Find volume of pillow

L=78cm

B=55cm

H=25cm

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow V=LBH$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow V=25(78)(55)$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow V=107250cm^3$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow V=10.72m^3$

Now

Mass=5.5kg

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow Density=\dfrac{5.5}{10.72}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow Density=0.5kg/m^3$

Density of water=1000kg/m^3

As it is less than density of water it will float on water

Heating carvone with aqueous sulfuric acid converts it into carvacrol. The mechanism involves the following steps:

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

In this question, we have to start with the protonation of the double bond. In carvone we have two double bonds, so, we have to decide first which one would be protonated.

The problem states that the terminal alkene is the one that would is protonated. Therefore, we have to do the protonation in the double bond at the bottom to produce the carbocation number 1. Then, a hydride shift takes place to produce the carbocation number 2. A continuation, an elimination reaction takes place to produce the conjugated diene. Then the diene is protonated at the carbonyl group and with an elimination reaction of an hydrogen in the alpha carbon we can obtain carvacol.

The ionic equation for MgCl2 and KOH.

saw5 [17]

The reaction of Mg Cl2 and KOH can be described as a double substitution type of reaction. This means the cations of the reactants are exchanged in places when the products are formed. In this case, the balanced reaction is expressed
MgCl2 (s) + 2KOH (aq) = Mhg (OH)2 (aq) + 2KCl (s)

Select all that apply. choose the two correct statements below. the elements of the halogen family are very reactive because: th

Harman [31]

Halogens are a group of elements consisting of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. In their ionic form, they have a superscript of -1, for example, chloride ion is Cl-1. These means that they readily accept one electron in order to achieve the Octet rule. The Octet rule states that each atom must contain 8 electrons in their valence shell for it to be stable. The most stable set of elements are the noble gases. Because they already fulfill the Octet rule, they no longer take part in reactions. Halogens are also very electronegative, meaning, they attract more electrons toward them. This is also a consequence of the Octet rule.

From the choices, the answers would be:
they require only one electron to complete their outer shell
they have a high electronegativity

A gas has an initial volume of 455 mL at 105ºC and a final volume of 235 mL. What is its final temperature in Celsius degrees?

Oksana_A [137]

Hello!

To solve this problem we're going to use the Charles' Law. This Law describes the relationship between Volume and Temperature in an ideal gas. Applying this law we have the following equation:

$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2} \\ \\ T2= \frac{V2*T1}{V1}= \frac{235 mL * 105 ^{\circ}C }{455 mL}=54,23 ^{\circ}C$

So, the final temperature is 54,23 °C

Have a nice day!
