When comparing 10,000 amu of mercury atoms with 10,000 amu ofiron atoms
a. it is not possible to tell which sample contains moreatoms.
b. there are more mercury atoms than iron atoms.
c. mercury is a liquid, so it would be less dense than theiron, and therefore there would be feweratoms
d.each sample has the same numbers of atoms.
e. there are more iron atoms than mercury atoms.

Which of the following statements best explains why nitrogen gas at STP is less dense than Xe gas at STP?
(a) Because Xe is a noble gas, there is less tendency for the Xe atoms to repel one another, so they pack more densely in the gaseous state.
(b) Xe atoms have a higher mass than N2 molecules. Because both gases at STP have the same number of molecules per unit volume, the Xe gas must be denser.
(c) The Xe atoms are larger than N2 molecules and thus take up a larger fraction of the space occupied by the gas.
(d) Because the Xe atoms are much more massive than the N2 molecules, they move more slowly and thus exert less upward force on the gas container and make the gas appear denser.

As long as an organism is alive, it has one carbon-14 (14C) atom for every 7.2 x 1011 carbon-12 (12C) atoms in its body (N14N12=17.2 × 1011). Once it is dead, the carbon-14 is no longer replaced by absorbing more from the environment, so the number of carbon-14 atoms declines. Carbon-12 is stable, so the number of carbon-12 atoms remains the same over time.

a) Suppose a 0.35kg sample of bone has an activity of 0.0015 μCi. How many carbon-14 atoms are there in the bone now?

b) If the bone is pure carbon, how many carbon-12 atoms are there in the bone now?

c) Given that number of carbon-12 atoms (which has never changed), how many carbon-14 atoms were there when the organism was alive?

d) How long ago did the organism die?

1.A tablespoon (tbsp) is how many teaspoons (tsp)?

1/2/3/4

2.A metal pan made of cast iron will take longer to heat than an aluminum pan because iron has a (lower.higher) thermal conductivity than alumium

Cast iron has a (lower/higher) pecific heatthan aluminum, meaning it will take less energy to heat up iron than aluminum to the same temperature, assuming the same mass*.

3.Which materials are not good for cooking acidic foods such as tomatoes because the metal will react with the acid?

Pooly seasoned cast iron or non-anodized alumium / stainless steel / glass / copper

4.When measuring out solid ingredients, you fill the measuring cup with the item and then use a knife to cut across it for an even top/level. For brown sugar only (which is compressible), you should (pack it/ spoon sugar into the cup / scoop nomally

when filling the measuring cup or else there will be (less / more) sugar than what is called for.

5.When measuring one cup of a fluffy substance (such as flour) how should you measure it, assuming you are using a measuring cup rather than a balance.

(A balance would be the best way as it measures mass rather than volume which is often more accurate!)

1.Scoop it into the measuring cup then level i

2. Scoop it using the measuring cup then level it

3. Pack it so it's more dense

4. Use tablespoons to measure it out

6. When measuring ingredients, mass (grams, pounds, ounces) measures ( amount of substance there is / the amount of space a substances takes up)

whereas volume (cups, tbsp, quarts, gallons) measures ( amount of substance there is / the amount of space a substances takes up)
