Simply put, density is how tightly “stuff” is packed into a defined space.

For example, a suitcase jam-packed with clothes and souvenirs has a high density, while the same suitcase containing two pairs of underwear has low density. Size-wise, both suitcases look the same, but their density depends on the relationship between their mass and volume.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Volume is the amount of space that an object takes up in three dimensions.

Density is calculated using the following equation: Density = mass/volume or D = m/v.

If something is heavy for its size, it has a high density. If an object is light for its size it has a low density.

The relative densities of an object and the liquid it is placed in determine whether that object will sink or float.

Which of the following best explains why bonds form between atoms?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

I believe the answer is D because atoms are always seeking to fill up their outer electron shell/valence shell and want to gain a full octet.

Darwin called this idea of certain traits being selected in order for an organism to reproduce sexual selection. In crickets and
tamaranim1 [39]

Th correct answer is option C. Calling can be hazardous because it also attracts parasites and predators.

The mating call is used by the males to attract females for sexual reproduction. By using vocal sounds males are not only making themselves attractive to females, they are also making themselves vulnerable to predators.

Thus the mating call can have a disastrous effect on the survival of the species.

2. What are the different areas of an electron cloud called?
Ghella [55]
Shells (electrons) - located in the cloud
nucleus- located in the center
energy level - is determined by the electron count ( level 1 - 2 electrons
level 2 - 8 electrons
level 3- 18 electrons)

The rms (root-mean-square) speed of a diatomic hydrogen molecule at 50∘c is 2000 m/s. Note that 1. 0 mol of diatomic hydrogen at
Leno4ka [110]

The rms speed will be 500 m/s

<h3>What is Root mean square speed ?</h3>

Root mean square speed (Vrms) is defined as the square root of the mean of the square of speeds of all molecules.

Root mean square speed (vrms) Root mean square speed (vrms) is defined as the square root of the mean of the square of speeds of all molecules

It is given that

Speed of a diatomic hydrogen molecule,2000 m/s

Mol of diatomic hydrogen,1.0

Temperature,50°C

The rms speed of diatomic molecule will be:

√(3KT)/( m)

The translational kinetic energy of a gas molecule is given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

K.E = (1/2) mv²

where,

v = root mean square velocity

m = mass of one mole of a gas

(3/2)KT = (1/2) mv²

v = √(3KT)/m  

FOR H₂:  v = √(3KT)/m = 2000 m/s  

Here,

mass of 1 mole of oxygen = 16 m

velocity of oxygen = √(3KT)/(16 m)

velocity of oxygen = (1/4) √(3KT)/m

velocity of oxygen = (1/4)(2000 m/s) = 500 m/s

Therefore the  rms (root-mean-square) speed of a oxygen molecule at 50∘c is 500m/s.
