Malia was able to make a paper lip float on the surface of water. what will most likely happen to the paperclip if a drop of dishwashing detergent is added near it?

If a drop of dishwashing detergent is added near it, the paperclip most likely will;

Soap is a surfactant that disrupts the intermolecular forces of water making the paperclip sink.

The paperclip is able to float on the surface of water due to its surface tension.  

When soap is added to water, it reduces the surface tension. Soap disrupts the intermolecular forces that hold the molecules on the surface tightly like a film.

Thus, the paperclip sinks into the water.

1.consider the following balanced equation and answer parts a through. show calculations for each part.  

3 ag(s) + 4 hno3(aq) → 3 agno3(aq) + no(g) + 2 h2o(l)  

a. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 3 moles of ag with excess hno3. if the number to the left of the compound represents the number of moles of the compound which are present, then 3 moles of ag react with 4 moles hno3 to produce 3 moles agno3 (aq).

so the answer to a would be 3 moles.

b. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.  

i'm not sure how to plug in the grams of silver into an equation using moles to find how many moles are produced.

c. calculate the number of grams of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3  

d. calculate the number of moles of no produced as a byproduct of the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.  

e. calculate the number of grams of no produced as a byproduct starting with 108 grams of ag and excess hno3.
