Answer:

Density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of solid sphere(m) = 6.1 kg

Density of the metal = 2600 kg/m³

Thus volume of the liquid :

$Volume(V)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Density (\rho)}$

Volume of the sphere = 6.1 kg/2600 kg/m³ = 0.002346 m³

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of sphere (Archimedes' principle)

Volume displaced = 0.002346 m³

Buoyant force = $\rho\times gV$

Where

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume displaced

The free body diagram of the sphere is shown in image.

According to image:

$mg=\rho\times gV+T$

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 ms⁻²

Tension force = 26 N

Applying in the equation to find the density of the liquid as:

$6.1\times 9.81=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346+26$

$33.841=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346$

$\rho=\frac{33.841}{9.81\times 0.002346}$

$\rho=1470.43 kgm^3$

<u>Thus, the density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³</u>

A 600.0 mL sample of 0.20 MHF is titrated with 0.10 MNaOH. Determine the pH of the solution after the addition of 600.0 mL of Na

Leona [35]

Answer: pH=12.69

Explanation:

${\text{Moles of HF}=Molarity\times {\text{Volume of solution in liters}}$

${\text{Moles of HF}=0.20M\times 0.6L=0.12 moles$

$HF\rightarrow H^++F^-$

Initial 0.12 0 0

Eqm 0.12-x x x

$K_a=\frac{[H^+][F^-]}{[HF]}$

$3.5\times 10^{-4}=\frac{x^2}{0.12-x}$

(neglecting small value of x in comparison to 0.12)

$x=4.2\times 10^{-5}$

Moles of $H^+=4.2\times 10^{-5}$

$NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-$

${\text{Molesof NaOH}}=Molarity\times {\text{Volume of solution in liters}}$

${\text{Moles of NaOH}}=0.10M\times 0.6L=0.06 moles$

0.06 moles of NaOH will give 0.06 moles of $[OH^-]$

Now $4.2\times 10^{-5}$ moles of $OH^-$ will be neutralized by $4.2\times 10^{-5}$ moles of $H^+$ and $(0.06-4.2\times 10^{-5})=0.059$ moles of $OH^-$ will be left.

Molarity of $OH^-=\frac{0.059moles}{1.2L}=0.049M$

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]=-\log[0.049]=1.31$

pH = 14 - pOH= 14 - 1.31 = 12.69

Is a tick autotroph or heterotroph? Pls explane

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Autotrophs are known as producers because they are able to make their own food from raw materials and energy. Examples include plants, algae, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs are known as consumers because they consume producers or other consumers. Dogs, birds, fish, and humans are all examples of heterotrophs

Explanation:

So they are heterotrophs

Ticks are tiny parasites that feed on the blood of their hosts (humans and animals) in order to survive and advance to the next life cycle stage.
