Chapter 1, Problem 43GQ
Hexane (C6H14, density = 0.766 g/cm3), perfluoro-hexane (C6F14, density = 1.669 g/cm3), and water are immiscible liquids; that is, they do not dissolve in one another. You place 10 mL of each in a graduated cylinder, along with pieces of high-density polyethylene (HDPE, density = 0.97 g/cm3), polyvinyl chloride(PVC, density = 1.36 g/cm3), and Teflon (density = 2.3 g/cm3). None of these common plastics dissolves in these liquids. Describe what you expect to see.

(Assume that there is no change in volume when the pure compounds are mixed.) The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/cm³ and that of water is 0.998 g/cm³. Percentage of ethanol = b. Alcoholic beverages are rated in proof, which is a measure of the relative amount of ethanol in the beverage. Pure ethanol is exactly 200 proof, a solution that is 50% ethanol by volume is exactly 100 proof.

- Some bottles of colorless liquids were being labeled when the technicians accidentally mixed them up and lost track of their contents. A 15.0-mL sample withdrawn from one bottle weighed 22.3 g. The technicians knew that the liquid was either acetone, benzene, chloroform, or carbon tetrachloride (which have densities of 0.792 g/cm3, 0.899 g/cm3, 1.489 g/cm3, and 1.595 g/cm3, respectively).

- The German chemist Fritz Haber proposed paying off the reparations imposed against Germany after World War I by extracting gold from seawater. Given the following data, what was the dollar amount of the gold that could have been extracted from 3.0 m3 of seawater? The price of gold at the time was $0.68 per gram of gold. Gold occurs in seawater to the extent of 5.15 x 1011 atoms per gram of seawater. The density of seawater is 1.03 g/cm3.arrow_forwardA manufacturer of paint claims that a gallon (3.78L) of latex paint can cover 365 ft2 of the surface of a wall in a single coating. The paint manufacturer also claims that one single coating of an entire wall will be 3.40 mm thick. Is this a case of false advertising? Yes or No? Elaborate your answer by providing a calculation.
