Sam believes the rock is more denser than the pencil. He measured the mass of the rock to be 8.5 grams and volume to be 4.5mL. H

e measured the mass of the pencil to be 2.4 grams and volume to be 4.5mL. Density is the mass per unit volume of an object. When he put the rock and pencil into the water, the pencil floated and the rock sank. Which is more denser? Give your reasoning using actual density values.

Answer:

Rock

Explanation:

Let's calculate the density of each object:

Rock:

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{8.5\ g}{4.5\ mL}=1.9\ g/mL

Pencil:

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{2.4\ g}{4.5\ mL}=0.53\ g/mL

Therefore the rock is denser.

Which substance is insoluble and floats in water? A) Ice shavings B) Wood shavings C) Salt crystals D) Sugar crystals
saw5 [17]
Answer: B) Wood Shavings

Reason/Explanation:
Notice what options A, C, and D have on common. Ice, salt and sugar. Those are all dissolvable. Insoluble means un-able to dissolve. It can't dissolve. Wood shavings can't dissolve in water. They will just float. Sugar, salt and ice will all dissolve. Wood shavings won't.

Red #40 has an acute oral LD50 of roughly 5000 mg dye/1 kg body weight. This means if you had a mass of 1 kg, ingesting 5000 mg
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

350 g dye

0.705 mol

2.9 × 10⁴ L

Explanation:

The lethal dose 50 (LD50) for the dye is 5000 mg dye/ 1 kg body weight. The amount of dye that would be needed to reach the LD50 of a 70 kg person is:

70 kg body weight × (5000 mg dye/ 1 kg body weight) = 3.5 × 10⁵ mg dye = 350 g dye

The molar mass of the dye is 496.42 g/mol. The moles represented by 350 g are:

350 g × (1 mol / 496.42 g) = 0.705 mol

The concentration of Red #40 dye in a sports drink is around 12 mg/L. The volume of drink required to achieve this mass of the dye is:

3.5 × 10⁵ mg × (1 L / 12 mg) = 2.9 × 10⁴ L
