ty of the sample is 11.0 g/cm3 at 20°C, then the sample most likely is _____.

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass present in unit volume of the substance.

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Given that density of pure lead is more than that of the sample.

Density of lead = 11.4 g/cm^3

Density of sample = 11.0 g/cm^3

Since, we know that density is directly linked to mass of the substance. So with decrease in density of substance indicates that mass present in unit volume of the substance has also decreased.

The reason behind the less density of sample from lead was that, that it was made up lead and other light substance.

The sample is most likely lead with lighter substances in it. Pure lead would be closer to the pure lead density, and heavier substances would make the density more, not less.

Why the gross reading is needed when doing the titration? ​
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Because various factors can affect the actual value of the titration outcome. Some of these factors can range from errors from a researcher also known as human error, misreading the quantities, researcher's perception of the color, or wrong procedure in carrying out the experimentation.

Hence, in order to avoid such error, a researcher needs to be thorough during the process of experimentation, and using gross reading can help to avoid these errors when the titre value is eventually determined.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Displaced

Explanation:

A convenient way to measure the volume of an object is to measure the volume of a solid is to immerse the solid into water.

When a solid is immersed in water, it displaces some volume of water. This volume of water displaced is the same as the volume of the object.

For instance, if the volume of water in a measuring cylinder was 25 ml and i added a stone which made the water in the measuring cylinder to rise to 70 ml, it simply means that the volume of the object is 70 ml - 25 ml = 45 ml
