Gold in its pure form is too soft to be used for most jewelry. Therefore, the gold is mixed with other metals to produce an allo
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:18kt alloy contains

i) 75% of gold

rhogold=19.3g/cm^3

=75/100×19.3

=14.475g/cm^3

ii) 16% of silver

rhosilver=10.5g/cm^3

=16/100×10.5

=1.68g/cm^3

iii) 9% of copper

rhocopper =8.90g/cm^3

=9/100×8.9

=0.801g/cm^3

Overall density of 18kt gold

=(0.801+1.68+14.475)g/cm^3

=16.956g/cm^3

=17g/cm^3 to 3s.f

A 400g sample of water absorbs 500j of energy. how did the water temperature change if the specific heat of water is 4.18j/g©. S
Mashutka [201]

In general, the quantity of heat energy, Q, required to raise a mass m kg of a substance with a specific heat capacity of <span>c </span>J/(kg °C), from temperature t1 °C to t2 °C is given by:

<span>Q </span>= <span>mc(t</span><span>2 </span><span>– t</span>1<span>) joules</span>

<span>So:</span>

(t2-t1) =Q / mc

<span>As we know:
Q = 500 J </span>

<span>m = 0.4 kg</span>

<span>c = 4180 J/Kg </span>°c

<span>We can take t1 to be 0</span>°c

t2 - 0 = 500 / ( 0.4 * 4180 )

t2 - 0 = 0.30°c

A circuit has a 10 Ω resistor connected to a 1.5 V dry cell. What is the current that can flow in the circuit?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Here is the highly detailed, arcane, complex, technical form of Ohm's Law that is needed in order to answer this question  ===>  I = V / R  .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Current = (1.5 V) / (10 Ω)

<em>Current = 0.15 Ampere</em>
