Answer:

Hydrogen = 2.5 * 10^21

Explanation:

Chemical Formula Glucose: C₆H₁₂O₆

One of the ways you could do  this is to notice that for every carbon atom there are two Hydrogen atoms. You can state this more formally by using the formula to set up a ratio: 12/6 = hydrogen to Carbon

So if there are 1.250 * 10^21 Carbon atoms in the Glucose sample, then there will be twice as many hydrogen atoms.

H = 2 * 1.25 * 10^21 = 2.5 * 10^21 atoms

You could do this more formally by setting up a proportion.

6 Carbon / 12 Hydrogen = 1.25*10^21 /  x         Cross Multiply

6*x = 12 * 1.25*10^21                                           Combine the right

6x = 1.5 * 10^22                                                  Divide by 6

x = 2.5 * 10^21

Do you think thermal expansion affects all states of matter or just the solid? Explain your thinking.
torisob [31]

Answer:

All three states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) expand when heated. The atoms themselves do not expand, but the volume they take up does.

When a solid is heated, its atoms vibrate faster about their fixed points. The relative increase in the size of solids when heated is therefore small. Metal railway tracks have small gaps so that when the sun heats them, the tracks expand into these gaps and don’t buckle.

Liquids expand for the same reason, but because the bonds between separate molecules are usually less tight they expand more than solids. This is the principle behind liquid-in-glass thermometers. An increase in temperature results in the expansion of the liquid which means it rises up the glass.

Molecules within gases are further apart and weakly attracted to each other. Heat causes the molecules to move faster, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or liquid.

However, gases that are contained in a fixed volume cannot expand - and so increases in temperature result in increases in pressure.:

what does the number of the places after the decimal in a measurement tell you about the precision of the instrument that record
snow_lady [41]
The more numbers after the decimal point there are, the more precise the instrument which recorded it is. For example, if one instrument during seismic activity records that the magnitude of the earthquake was 2.3, and another instrument recorded that it was 2.3645, the second instrument would have shown to be more precise.
