The specific gravity of a sample is the ratio of the density of the sample with respect to one standard sample. The standard sample used in specific gravity calculation is water whose density is 1 g/mL. The solution having specific gravity 1.30 is the density of the sample that is 1.30 g/mL. Thus the weight of the 30 mL sample is (30×1.30) = 39 g.
Now the mass of the 10 mL of water is 10 g as density of water is 10 g/mL. Thus after addition the total mass of the solution is (39 + 10) = 49g and the volume is (30 + 10) = 40 mL. Thus the density of the mixture will be
g/mL. Thus the specific gravity of the mixed sample will be 1.225 g/mL.
Carbon-14 dating is a way of determining the age of certain archeological artifacts of a biological origin up to about 50,000 years old. It is used in dating things such as bone, cloth, wood and plant fibers that were created in the relatively recent past by human activities.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light and do not require molecules (gas, solid or liquid) to vibrate and travel.
Soundwaves when singing or from thunder vibrate particles to reach our ears and are known as mechanical waves.
