- What will be the height of a column of chloroform (density = 1.49 x 103 kg/m3) that will be supported by a pressure of 2.00 x 105 N/m2? 1 N = 1 kg - m/s2. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.807 m/s2.arrow_forwardIn an experiment, a student was asked to measure the densities of liquid acetone and metallic chromium. He was given a pycnometer which weighed 26.880 g empty. When filled with water and stoppered, the mass was recorded as 54.992g at 28C. The pycnometer was cleaned and filled with acetone. The mass was 49.137 g. Again, the flask was cleaned and dried. Into it were added some chunks of chromium and the total was found to weight 78.666 g. Leaving the chromium in the pycnometer, it was then filled with acetone. The flask, metal and acetone were found to weigh 95.199 g. From this data, calculate the density of acetone and the density of chromium (show all your calculations).arrow_forwardIn our chemistry laboratory class, the formula for surface tension given is y=mg/2(pi) x r x f where y=surface tension, m= mass of the drop, g= gravitational acceleration, pi is 3.1415, r= outer radius of burette, f=correction factor. Now I searched the internet and it says that the unit for surface tension is kg x m/s^2. The problem is I have grams for the mass of the drop and that the outer radius of the burette is in centimeter while the gravitational acceleration is in meter. What will happen is like this: (1 g x 9.8 m/s^2) / 2 (3.1415) x 0.15 cm x 0.74643 (correction factor no unit) As you can see, if I don't cancel m and cm, the unit will be g x cm x m x s^2. However if change the radius of the burette into meter, it will cancel, the unit will be g x s^2 (missing meter). What can I do to get kg x m/s^2 as the unit for final answer?arrow_forward
- Group 1 & 2 Consider a steel cylinder with an inner height of h = 1. 000 m and an inner diameter of d = 200.0 cm. Suppose this cylinder is filled completely with carbon disulfide when the temperature is 12. 5 °C. How much carbon disulfide will spill over when the temperature rises to 35.0 °C ? Group 3 & 4 Consider a rectangular fish tank constructed from ordinary glass. The dimensions of the tank are: length L = 16.00 in, width W = 8.00 in, and height H = 11.00 in. Suppose the tank is filled with water up to a depth of d = 5.00 in when the temperature is 29.0 °C. What is the percent change in volume of the water inside the tank when the temperature is 29.0 °C ?arrow_forwardBelow are 3 real life situations. Pick two (2) them and explain ALL the science involved in the scenario. This means describe things like what is happening to the gas/liquid/solid molecules or atoms, which principles or laws are at work, why what is happening is happening, and how you know. At sea level, a pot of water will boil at 100 °C. Suppose you wanted to boil the same amount of water high in the Rocky Mountains. What do you expect the temperature will need to be (generally speaking)? Why? A can of soda sits in a sunny spot on the window sill for several hours. It is then opened at the same time as a cold can of soda from the refrigerator. What happens and why? Weather balloons do not float out into space. They reach an altitude of about 15 miles above the surface (3x the height of Mt Everest) and they burst. Why?arrow_forwardAt 36.0 °C the density of water is 0.9936870 g/cm3.At 37.0 °C the density of water is 0.9933390 g/cm3.Use linear interpolation to calculate the density (D) of water at 36.2 °C, to the nearest 10-7g/cm3.D =arrow_forward
- On December 1, 1783, Jacque Charles became the first human to pilot a non-tethered hydrogen balloon. He flew the balloon for fifteen miles and stayed in the air for a total flight time of 45 minutes. The balloon was made of silk coated with a thin layer of natural rubber and had a diameter of 27 feet. He generated the hydrogen gas needed to lift the balloon by mixing a large amount of iron with aqueous sulfuric acid. If he used 1 x 103 lbs. of iron and excess sulfuric acid, how many liters of hydrogen gas were made? Fe(s) + H2SO4(aq) = FeSO4 (aq) + H2(g)arrow_forwardQuestion 2.

In the Dumas method for determining the molar mass of an unknown volatile liquid, a sample of a volatile liquid that boils below 100 oC is vaporized in a boiling water bath and the mass of the vapor required to fill the flask is determined.
