To determine whether the crown was made of pure gold or not, we need to compare the density of gold (19.3 g/mL) to the density of the crown.
The formula for density is
we know the mass of the crown is 714 grams and its volume is 38.3 mL. (Because it displaces 38.3 mL of water)
Using this information, we can plug the numbers into our density formula to solve for the density of the crown.
The density of the crown is 18.6 g/mL, thus the crown was not made of pure gold, as that has a density of 19.3 g/mL. In conclusion, the goldsmith tried to screw over the king.
the basic unit of distance is the centimeter (cm) There are 100 centimeters in a meter and 1000 meters in a kilometer.
Answer:
HCl solution - H30+ and Cl ions. pH 3
NaCl - Na+ and Cl-. pH 7
Explanation:
a) HCl solution - the hydrogen ion combines with water molecule to form the hydronium molecule which is responsible for acidity. The chloride ion is also found in solution.
pH = -log [H+] = -log(10^-3) = 3
b) NaCl 10-3 g. The solid dissocates in water forming the Na+ and Cl- ions. None of these ions affect pH
Answer:
Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals. For example, in water (H2O) each hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) share a pair of electrons to make a molecule of two hydrogen atoms single bonded to a single oxygen atom. ... Covalent compounds tend to be soft, and have relatively low melting and boiling points.
