Question
Since the bead
less dense than any of the liquids in the column, the bead will float on top of all the liquids.
b Next you drop a different plastic bead that has a volume of 0.058 mL and a mass of 5.22 x 10- g into the column. What would you expect to observe in this case?
O The bead will float on top of all the liquids.
The bead will pass through the top layer and float on the n-butyl alcohol layer.
The bead will pass through the top two layers and float on the toluene layer.
The bead will pass through the top three layers and float on the ethylene glycol layer.
The bead will sink all the way to the bottom.
Correct
First, determine the density of the plastic bead. Since density is mass divided by volume, you get
m
d =
5.22 x 10-2 g
= 0.90 g/mL = 0.90 g/cm
%3D
0.058 mL
Thus, the glass bead will pass through the top three layers and float on the ethylene glycol layer, which is more dense.
C You drop another bead into the column and observe that it makes it all the way to the bottom of the column. What can you conclude about the density of this bead?
O The bead must be less dense than 0.785 g/cm.
O The bead must be more dense than 0.785 g/cm", but less dense than 0.810 g/cm.
O The bead must be more dense than 0.810 g/cm, but less dense than 0.866 g/cm.
O The bead must be more dense than 0.866 g/cm", but less dense than 1.114 g/cm.
O The bead must be more dense than 1.114 g/cm".
