Suppose the paramecium were placed in a container of sea water what would you observe?

Usually, the paramecium used in a study like this are freshwater. Because the water inside the paramecium has a lower salt concentration, it moves out and shrivels the paramecium up, drying it out.

What is a molar mass and what is it used for?

The molar mass is the sum of atomic weight of the atoms contained in a molecule. Example: water, H2O The molar mass is: 2 x 1,008 + 15,999 = 18,015 Molar mass is used in many calculus in chemistry.


How do you find the density of a liquid?

To find the density of a liquid, you must find its mass and volume. To find the mass, use a triple beam balance, put the liquid into a container, weigh it, subtract the weight of the container, and that is how to get the mass. Then, to find the volume, use a graduated cylinder, put the liquid into the container, and then find the mark where the liquid line lands, and that is your volume. Then, divide your mass by your volume, and there is your density in grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm3).

What happen to the mass of water in a hermetically sealed container is transported from the Earths surface to the moons surface?

The mass (amount) of the water in the container doesn't change, no matter where it goes. The water might change state, say from liquid to solid (ice) during the voyage, depending on what vehicle was used to carry the container. The container could be distorted or ruptured by such a state change, allowing some or all of the water to escape. If some of the water were to escape from the hermetically sealed mayonnaise jar, the sum total of the mass of the water remaining in the jar plus the mass of the portion that escaped would still be equal to the mass of everything that was in the jar when it was sealed.

How many tons are there in 1 container?

you need to drop your container (#1) into another larger container (#2) floating in a container of water (#3). Mark the water level in container #3 remove container #1 from #2. Fill container #3 back to the marked level measuring the number of litres used. Divide the number of litres used by a 1000 and you have the weight in metric tonnes

Would you use a scale to measure capacity?

It could be used to measure capacity. For example, weigh an empty container. Then fill the container with water and weigh it again. Take the difference in weight. Divide by the density of water. This will give you the capacity of the container.


How do you measure the mass of 200 ml of water?

Mass is measured in grams, kilograms, etc. We know that 1 ml of water has a mass of approximately 1 gram,* so we should expect the water to have a mass of approximately 200 grams. To determine the mass of 200 ml of an actual quantity of water, we would have to weight it. Technically we would have to convert from weight to mass, but in fact, most scales are given with units that express mass, so in effect this conversion has been done already using certain assumptions about the gravitational field being experienced when the weighing takes place. You can weigh your 200 ml of water in a container and then subtract the weight of the container to determine the weight of the water. *To be exact, 1 milliliter or 1 cubic centimeter of pure water at 4 degrees Celsius has a mass slightly less than 1 gram; in fact, it used to have that value by definition. However, when the kilogram was redefined, that exact relationship was lost. See the link for details.
