Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The density values given in the table for several common solids and liquids needs to be calculated. The layering of these solids and liquids needs to be explained when placed in a
Concept introduction:
Density of a sample of matter or an object is equal to the mass of the sample divided by the volume of the sample.
Answer to Problem 65A
The order of layering of the given solids and liquids form bottom to the top will be bone, corn syrup, glycerin, water, plastic, vegetable oil, isopropyl alcohol, motor oil, wood, ethyl alcohol and then cork.
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The liquid or solid whose density is highest will be at the bottom of the large graduated cylinder while the liquid having least density will be present at the top. Thus, the order of layering form bottom to the top will be bone, corn syrup, glycerin, water, plastic, vegetable oil, isopropyl alcohol, motor oil, wood, ethyl alcohol and then cork.
The order of layering of the given solids and liquids form bottom to the top will be bone, corn syrup, glycerin, water, plastic, vegetable oil, isopropyl alcohol, motor oil, wood, ethyl alcohol and then cork.

- 4. a) Give a suitable rationale for the following cyclization, stating the type of process involved (e.g. 9-endo-dig), clearly showing the mechanistic details at each step. H CO₂Me 1) NaOMe 2) H3O® CO₂Mearrow_forward2. Platinum and other group 10 metals often act as solid phase hydrogenation catalysts for unsaturated hydrocarbons such as propylene, CH3CHCH2. In order for the reaction to be catalyzed the propylene molecules must first adsorb onto the surface. In order to completely cover the surface of a piece of platinum that has an area of 1.50 cm² with propylene, a total of 3.45 x 10¹7 molecules are needed. Determine the mass of the propylene molecules that have been absorbed onto the platinum surface.arrow_forwardChem 141, Dr. Haefner 2. (a) Many main group oxides form acidic solutions when added to water. For example solid tetraphosphorous decaoxide reacts with water to produce phosphoric acid. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. (b) Calcium phosphate reacts with silicon dioxide and carbon graphite at elevated temperatures to produce white phosphorous (P4) as a gas along with calcium silicate (Silcate ion is SiO3²-) and carbon monoxide. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.arrow_forward
