A U – tube with some mercury at the bottom is set up vertically and twelve centimeter of water is added into one arm of the tube. Methylated spirits is then added carefully into the other arm of the U – tube until the mercury levels are the same in both arms. It is observed that the level methylated spirit is higher. What is the density of methylated spirit if the methylated spirit column is fifteen centimeter high?Required to answer. Single choice.

A comic book scenario: you've been given a 316 g sample of what is claimed to be vibranium taken from Wakanda, which you know has a density of 583 kg/m33. To test this claim, you place the sample in water, which has a density of 1000 kg/m33. What fraction of the sample will be floating above the water if it is truly vibranium?
The density of platinum is 21.45 x 103 kg/m3. a. Calculate the volume (in m3/atom) occupied per platinum atom b. Estimate the atomic diameter (in m);(The estimate uses the approximation that it is a cubic volume) c. Using this estimation, calculate the thickness of a metal foil (in m) containing 2.0 x 101 atomic layers of platinum.
Determine the erythrocyte sedimentation rate assuming that the erythrocytes have a spherical shape with a diameter of 8 microns. Take the blood density 1060 kg/m3, the density of the substance of erythrocytes 1090 kg/m3.
Manufacturers of headache remedies routinely claim that their own brands are more potent pain relievers than the competing brands. Their way of making the comparison is to compare the number of molecules in the standard dosage. Tylenol uses 325 mg of acetaminophen (C8H9NO2) as the standard dose, whereas Advil uses 2.00 × 102 mg of ibuprofen (C13H18O2). Find the number of molecules of pain reliever in the standard doses of (a) Tylenol and (b) Advil.
