In order to determine the density of an item, we will need to determine its mass and volume. The standard unit for measuring mass in a lab is the gram. Think about liquids- what units do you typically report the volume of a liquid in? What about for a sugar cube, what volume is the most appropriate?
A regular object like a sugar cube can be measured with a ruler so we might report the volume in centimeters cubed (cm3). An irregular object like the plate pictured below can be measured by using a technique called volume by displacement. A liquid (typically water) is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume of a liquid is measured. Then the irregular object is placed in the liquid and the volume is measured again. The change in volume is the irregular object’s volume. This measurement is often made using a graduated cylinder and recording a volume in Liters or milliliters (mL).

Answer:
CH4
Explanation:
The number of moles of carbon and hydrogen has been given as follows:
C = 0.300 mol
H = 1.20 mol
Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.300)
C = 0.300 ÷ 0.300 = 1
H = 1.20 ÷ 0.300 = 4
The empirical ratio of Carbon and Hydrogen is 1:4, hence, the empirical formula is CH4
Sugar. It is solid and its atoms have less kinetic energy to overcome the bonding force. So, the bonding force is stronger than water, which is liquid and has more kinetic energy to overcome the bonding force of atoms. So, water has less strong force of attraction. Hence, sugar has stronger forces of attraction.
Within a physical change, an element can change forms, such as going from solid to a liquid through melting. Color change can also occur during a physical change. Physical changes are very different from chemical changes. In a chemical change the element itself changes into something else within a reaction, such as combustion (burning).
Hope this helped
