Three liquid samples of known masses are heated to their boiling points with the use of a heater rated at 475.0 W. Once the
boiling points of each sample are reached, the samples are heated for an additional 4.60 min, which results in the vaporization of
some of each sample. After 4.60 min, the samples are cooled and the masses of the remaining liquids are determined. The
process is performed at constant pressure. The results are recorded in the table.

- Nanotechnology, or technology utilizing 1100 nm sized particles, has rapidly expanded in the past few decades, with potential applications ranging across far-reaching fields such as electronics, medicine, biomaterials, and consumer products, to name a few. One of the primary advantages of nanoparticles is the presence of large surface/mass ratios, resulting in enhanced surface activities compared to bulk materials. a Use the density of silver (10.49 g/cm3) to determine the number of Ag atoms in a spherical 20.-nm silver particle. b In the crystalline metallic environment, the measured radii of silver atoms has been measured to be 144 pm.
