Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the density, we first calculate the total volume of uranium hexafluoride. Since each drum contains 15 L, the total volume is 30 drums * 15 L/drum = 450 L. Next, convert the mass from kg to g (1 kg = 1000 g). Density = mass/volume. Density = (mass in g) / (volume in mL). Since the mass is in g, we need to convert the volume from L to mL (1 L = 1000 mL). Density = (mass in g) / (volume in mL) = (mass in g) / (volume in L * 1000). Density = (mass in g) / (450 L * 1000) = (mass in g) / 450000 mL. Therefore, the density is the mass divided by 450000. The correct answer is C: 2.25 g/mL. Choice A is incorrect as it is too low

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the mass of a 57-mL sample of glycerol, we use the given mass-to-volume ratio. Since 0 mL has a mass of 2 grams, the mass-to-volume ratio is 2g/0mL = 2g/mL. Therefore, for a 57-mL sample, we multiply 2g/mL by 57 mL to get 114 grams, which corresponds to answer choice B. Choice A (8.8 g) is incorrect because it does not align with the calculated mass of 114 g for a 57-mL sample. Choices C (2.9 104 g) and D (72 g) are also incorrect as they are not consistent with the mass-to-volume ratio of 2g/mL provided in the question.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the significant figures in the sum of 23.68 and 4.12, we add the numbers which results in 27.8. The sum has 3 significant figures because the least precise number has 2 decimal places. To find the significant figures in the product, we multiply the numbers which equals 97.4096. The product has 4 significant figures since the number with the fewest significant figures has 2 before the decimal point and 4 after. Therefore, the correct answer is D (4 significant figures in the product and 3 in the sum).

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the statement that the number of protons and neutrons is always the same in a neutral atom is false. In a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons, not the number of neutrons. Neutrons are not always equal to the number of protons. A: An atom is mostly empty space - Correct. This is true because the nucleus is very tiny compared to the overall size of the atom. B: Almost all of the mass of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus - Correct. This is true because protons and neutrons have much more mass than electrons. C: The protons and neutrons in the nucleus are very tightly packed - Correct. This is true because protons and neutrons are densely packed within the nucleus.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the cost of a gram of gold at $1000 per troy ounce, we divide $1000 by 10 (since 1 troy ounce = 10g). This gives us $100 per gram. Therefore, the correct answer is C: between $10 and $50. Option A is incorrect as it is less than $1, option B is incorrect as it is between $1 and $10, and option D is incorrect as it is between $50 and $100.
