Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. varying the mass per- centages of the two metals produces brasses with different proper- t

ies. a brass called yellow zinc has high ductility and strength and is 34–37% zinc by mass. (a) find the mass range (in g) of copper in 185 g of yellow zinc. (b) what is the mass range (in g) of zinc in a sample of yellow zinc that contains 46.5 g of copper?

First step: The mass of zinc in the yellow zinc sample can be calculated with the help of percentage (given) in the sample. After that, mass of copper is determine by the subtracting the mass of zinc from the total mass of zinc in the given sample.

Thus,

Mass of zinc in 34% zinc sample = 185 g yellow zinc \times \frac{34 zinc}{100 yellow zinc}

= 62.9 g zinc

Mass of zinc in 37% zinc sample = 185 g yellow zinc \times \frac{37 zinc}{100 yellow zinc}

= 68.45 g zinc

Now,

mass of copper in 34% zinc sample =185 g -62.9 g

= 122.1 g \simeq 122 g

mass of copper in 37% zinc sample = 185 g -68.45 g

=116.55 g \simeq 117 g

Thus, the range of mass of copper is 117 g to  122 g

Second step:

34% zinc sample consist of 66% copper (100-34= 66%)

37% zinc sample consist of 63% copper (100-37=63%)

Mass of zinc = (46.5 g copper) \times \frac{34 percent zinc}{66 percent copper}

= 23.95 g\simeq 24 g

Mass of zinc  =46.5 g copper \times \frac{37 percent zinc}{63 percent copper}

= 27.30 g\simeq 27g

Thus, the range of mass of zinc is 24 g to  27 g

How does the volume of water change the solubility of sodium chloride in simple words?
kupik [55]

Answer:

When sodium chloride dissolves in water to make a saturated solution there is a 2.5 per cent reduction in volume. ... The solubility of salt does not change much with temperature, so there is little profit in using hot water.

Sonia was experimenting with electric charges. She tied two inflated balloons together, held them next to each other, and rubbed
Sladkaya [172]
Sonia observed that the two balloons repelled each other. This is because both balloons acquired the same charge when she rubbed them with the piece of wool, and like charges repel each other.

How many moles of carbon monoxide are there in 36.55 g of carbon monoxide?
Kitty [74]

You can find moles of a substance by dividing mass by the molecules molar mass.

Explanation:

Carbon Monoxides Molar mass is 12.0111 (Carbon) + 16.0000 (Oxygen) = 28.0111g/mol. Divide grams by molar mass:
