The radius of a copper (Cu) atom is roughly 1.3x10−10 m. How many times can you divide evenly a 223.3−cm long piece of copper wire until it is reduced to two separate copper atoms? (Assume there are appropriate tools for this procedure and that copper atoms are lined up in a straight line, in contact with each other. Round off your answer to an integer.)
A cylindrical glass tube 12.7 cm in length is filled withmercury. The mass of mercury needed to fill the tube isfound to be 105.5 g. Calculate the inner diameter of thetube. (The density of mercury = 13.6 g/mL.)

- You set out to determine the density of lead in the laboratory. Using a top loading balance to determine the mass and the water displacement method (Study Question 41) to determine the volume of a variety of pieces of lead, you calculate the following densities: 11.6 g/cm3, 11.8 g/cm3, 11.5 g/cm3, and 12.0 g/cm3. You consult a reference book and find that the accepted value for the density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3. Calculate your average value, percent error, and standard deviation of your results.arrow_forwardI know in order to find the volume you take the density divided by the mass.
