HELP! Ethanol has a density of 0.8 g/cm3. a. What is the mass of 225 cm3 of ethanol? b. What is the volume of 75.0 g of ethanol?

The correct answers are:

a) 180 g

b) 93.7 cm³

Explanation:

The density of a substance is the mass of the substance per unit of volume. So, it is calculated as follows:

density= mass/volume

From the data provided in the problem:

density = 0.8 g/cm³

a) Given: volume= 225 cm³

mass= density x volume = 0.8 g/cm³ x 225 cm³ = 180 g

b) Given: mass= 75.0 g

volume = mass/density = 75.0 g/(0.8 g/cm³)= 93.75 cm³≅ 93.7 cm³

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
