Sink, because when you drop a rock into a liquid it sinks, coal is like rocks because both solids are heavy weight!!

Hope this helps!

Answer from: kelli151

Yes, clean coal floats. If it's "dirty" with other minerals, it may sink.

Answer from: Quest

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.

Write 15 uses of a mercury barometer along with its characterestics

answer: e. sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

$hcl\rightarrow h^++cl^-$

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give $oh^-$ ions or accepts $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

$naoh\rightarrow na^++oh^-$

$nh_3+h^+\rightarrow nh_4^+$
