Answer:

By making it weigh even more and if it weighs more then it has less of chance to float.

Explanation:

If it is mixed with a less-valuable metal, it would increase the density of the gold, making it weigh more and less able to float.

(I hope this answers your question!)

Answer:

If gold has a rare, high density then it would sink quickly. If mixed substances that are less-valued, are added to the gold crown (remember that gold is rare and very dense which makes it special) then we can assume the cheap substances are less dense, thus making the crown FLOAT more rather than sink (I say more, because unless the crown was extremely mixed with cheap material then it could possibly float but it depends on how much is in the crown). Summary: The crown would either be lighter and float, or barely be sunken due to the less-dense substance.

*Hint to think about: People consider cheaper things lighter such as plastic ring/less dense  for example, compared to a silver ring which is heavier/more dense (btw heavy does not always mean high density, it depends on the liquid density )

Hope this actually helps!

Explanation:

High-Desnity=Sink

Low Density=Float

How many SO32- ions are contained in 99.6 mg of Na2SO3? The molar mass of Na2SO3 is 126.05 g/mol.
DochEvi [55]
99.6 mg= .0996 g
.0996g x (1mol/125.05g) x (1 mol SO3/1 mol Na2SO2) x (6.02 x 10^22/1mol SO3) = 4.79 x 10^19 SO32- ions

Calculate the daily aluminum production of a 150,000 [A] aluminum cell that operates at a faradaic efficiency of 89%. The cell r
Gala2k [10]

Explanation:

It is known that in one day there are 24 hours. Hence, number of seconds in 24 hours are as follows.

                             24 \times 3600 sec

Hence, total charge passed daily is calculated as follows.

                      150,000 \times 24 \times 3600 sec

And, number of Faraday of charge is as follows.

                    \frac{150,000 \times 24 \times 3600 sec}{96500}

                     = 134300.52 F

The oxidation state of aluminium in Al_{2}O_{3} is +3.

                       Al^{3+} + 3e^{-} \rightarrow Al(s)

So, if we have to produce 1 mole of Al(s) we need 3 Faraday of charge.

Therefore, from 134300.52 F the moles of Al obtained with 89% efficiency is calculated as follows.

                \frac{134300.52 F}{3} \times \frac{89}{100}

                   = 39842.487 mol

or,               = 3.9842 \times 10^{4} mol

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mol

Therefore, mass in gram will be calculated as follows.

            Mass in grams = 3.9842 \times 10^{4} mol \times 27

                                     = 107.57 \times 10^{4} g

                                     = 1075.7 kg/day

Thus, we can conclude that the daily aluminum production of given aluminium is 1075.7 kg/day.

Naddik [55]
So the put a lot of words to make this seem more complicated than it is. Your first equation involves the money. I’m going to use x to represent tacos and y to represent burritos.
3x+7.25y=595 would be your first equation because you know the price of each item already just not how many. The second would involve the twice as many burritos sold than tacos. So that would mean x+2 would equal y
Y=x+2
Hope this helps. If not I can explain it more in detail.

A species has the following MO configuration: (σ1s)2(σ1s*)2(σ2s)2(σ2s*)2(σ2p)2(π2p)2. This substance is:_______.
Goshia [24]

Answer :  The correct option is, (a) paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons.

Explanation :

According to the molecular orbital theory, the general molecular orbital configuration will be,

(\sigma_{1s}),(\sigma_{1s}^*),(\sigma_{2s}),(\sigma_{2s}^*),(\sigma_{2p_z}),[(\pi_{2p_x})=(\pi_{2p_y})],[(\pi_{2p_x}^*)=(\pi_{2p_y}^*)],(\sigma_{2p_z}^*)

As there are 14 electrons present in the given configuration.

The molecular orbital configuration of molecule will be,

(\sigma_{1s})^2,(\sigma_{1s}^*)^2,(\sigma_{2s})^2,(\sigma_{2s}^*)^2,(\sigma_{2p_z})^2,[(\pi_{2p_x})^1=(\pi_{2p_y})^1],[(\pi_{2p_x}^*)^0=(\pi_{2p_y}^*)^0],(\sigma_{2p_z}^*)^0

The number of unpaired electron in the given configuration is, 2. So, this is paramagnetic. That means, more the number of unpaired electrons, more paramagnetic.

Hence, the correct option is, (a) paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons.
