Concept explainers
Which block in each of the following drawings of a balance is more dense, red or green? Explain.
a)
Interpretation:
The denser block in drawing of a balance has to be identified and explained.
Concept Introduction:
Density:
Density can be defined as property that links mass of an object to its volume. It derived quantity and its unit is
Explanation of Solution
It is known that,
Density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume.
In (a), red is identified as denser block because it is found have more mass and less volume than green block.
b)

- Liquid 1 reacts with Liquid 2, producing a solid and a gas. Using this scenario, which supports the law of conservation of mass? mass of Liquid 1+ mass of solid = mass of Liquid 2 + mass of gas mass of Liquid 1- mass of solid = mass of Liquid 2 – mass of gas mass of Liquid 1- mass of Liquid 2 = mass of solid + mass of gas mass of Ligquid 1+ mass of Liquid 2 = mass of solid + mass of gas Next Submit Save and Exit Mark this and return Sign ouarrow_forwardThe mass of magnesium used in this experiment is critical to determining the moles of hydrogen gas generated. The analytical balances used in Chemistry 1A labs are very sensitive to point that touching materials with your fingers before measuring them can affect the measurements. The balances are sensitive enough to detect dirt and oils from your fingers transferred to the magnesium. Would your experimental value of R increase or decrease if the mass of magnesium measured was artificially high due the touching it with your hands?
