Which has greater density 3 kg of water or 7 kg of water?
They will both have the same density, but have different volumes.
How can you obtain oxygen from a mixture of oxygen and ammonia?
We can obtain it by the Solubility method. These two gases has different volumes. Oxygen has 4 volumes which dissolves in 100 volumes of water and ammonia has 702 volumes which dissolves in 1 volume of water. They are insoluble and soluble in water respectively.
If you have a 1.0cm3 sample of lead and a 1.0cm3 sample of glass You drop each in separate beakers of water How do the volumes of water displaced by each sample compare?
They're the same.
How do liquid and solid volumes compare?
water
What volume of water would weigh the same as 150cm3 of mercury?
13.534 gram per cubic centimeter is the mercury density Accordingly, 150 cubic cm mercury = 150/13.534 gram = 11.0832 grams of mercury. Assuming fresh water at room temperature of density 1 gm/cubic centimeter, then water volume is 11.0832/1 = 11.0832 cubic cm.
The oceans saltiness is the same in all locations?
no as there is different volumes of water
Which has greater density 3 kg of water or 7 kg of water?
They will both have the same density, but have different volumes.
What is the conversion of vacuum in inches of water to vacuum in inches of mercury?
There's no such thing as "mercury vacuum". A volume of space can have solid mercury, liquid mercury, or mercury vapor in it, or it can be a vacuum. The weight of the "standard atmosphere" on any area is the same as the weight of a column of mercury 29.92 inches high on that same area, with no air above the mercury.
What is dispersing pollutants in larger volumes of water referred to as?
Dispersing pollutants in larger volumes of water is called dilution.
What is 30 inches water column in millimeters mercury?
The density of mercury is 13.534, compared to '1' for water. So the water columnis 13.534 times as high as the mercury column at the same pressure.(30 inches of water) x (25.4 millimeters/inch) / 13.534 = 56.3 millimeters of mercury
Are Mercury and Earth the same size?
Diameter of Mercury is 3031 miles; mass 3.250x1020. Diameter of Earth is 7926 miles (at Equator); mass 5.288x1021. Earth's mass is therefore about 16 times that of Mercury. Volumes can be calculated from diameters.
How can you obtain oxygen from a mixture of oxygen and ammonia?
We can obtain it by the Solubility method. These two gases has different volumes. Oxygen has 4 volumes which dissolves in 100 volumes of water and ammonia has 702 volumes which dissolves in 1 volume of water. They are insoluble and soluble in water respectively.
What is the equation for finding temperature when mixing equal volumes of water?
The result of mixing equal MASSES of water at different temperatures will be the mean of the two temperatures. Unless you are being very sophisticated and are taking the thermal expansion into account, the same will apply to volumes.
A cinder block floats in mercury and sinks in water?
this is because mercury is much denser than water . this means that there is more of it in a given amount of space then there is water in the same amount of space
Why is mercury in a thermometer instead of colored water?
Because mercury has properties in it that react to temperature, but coloured water would just stay at the same level the whole time.
Why mercury is heated faster than water?
in mercury the molecules are closser with respect to the molecular structure of the water. so when both of them are heated , there will be more molecular collision in mercury than in water. that's why , when both of them are heated to the same extend mercury produces more heat than water.
If you have a 1.0cm3 sample of lead and a 1.0cm3 sample of glass You drop each in separate beakers of water How do the volumes of water displaced by each sample compare?
They're the same.
