I think the correct answer among the choices presented above is option C. The <span>atomic number of an atom is equivalent to the number of protons in the nucleus. For a neutral atom, it is also the number of electrons since in a neutral atom protons and electrons are present in equal number.</span>
The density can be calculated using the following rule:
density = mass/volume
therefore,
volume = mass/density
we have the mass=22 mg=0.022 grams and density=0.754g/cm^3
substituting in the above equation, we can calculate the volume as follows:
volume = 0.022/0.754 = 0.0291 cm^3
Answer:
<em><u>Glass that will sink</u></em>
- alkali zinc borosilicate with a density of 2.57 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.46 g/mL
- potash soda lead with a density of 3.05 g/mL in a solution with a density of 1.65 g/mL
<em><u>Glass that will float</u></em>
- soda borosilicate with a density of 2.27 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.62 g/mL
- alkali strontium with a density of 2.26 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.34 g/mL
<em><u>Glass that will not sink or float</u></em>
- potash borosilicate with a density of 2.16 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.16 g/mL
Explanation:
Density is the property of matter that states the ratio of the amount of matter, its mass, to the space occupied by it, its volume.
So, the mathematical expression for the density is:
By comparing the density of a material with the density of a liquid, you will be able to determine whether object will float, sink, or do neither when immersed in the liquid.
The greater the density of an object the more it will try to sink in the liquid.
As you must have experienced many times an inflatable ball (whose density is very low) will float in water, but a stone (whose denisty is greater) will sink in water.
The flotation condition may be summarized by:
- When the density of the object < density of the liquid, the object will float
- When the density of the object = density of the liquid: the object will neither float nor sink
- When the density of the object > density of the liquid: the object will sink.
<em><u>Glass that will sink</u></em>
- alkali zinc borosilicate with a density of 2.57 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.46 g/mL, because 2.57 > 2.46.
- potash soda lead with a density of 3.05 g/mL in a solution with a density of 1.65 g/mL, because 3.05 > 1.65.
<u><em>Glass that will float</em></u>
- soda borosilicate with a density of 2.27 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.62 g/mL, because 2.27 < 2.62.
- alkali strontium with a density of 2.26 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.34 g/mL, because 2.26 < 2.34.
<em><u>Glass that will not sink or float</u></em>
- potash borosilicate with a density of 2.16 g/mL in a solution with a density of 2.16 g/mL, because 2.16 = 2.16
