A piece of gold jewelry weighs 11.54 g and has a volume of 0.675 cm3. The jewelry contains only gold (density = 19.3 g/cm3) and

silver (density = 10.5 g/cm3). Assuming that the total volume of the jewelry is the sum of the volumes of the gold and silver that it contains, calculate the percentage of gold in the jewelry.

Answer:

Percentage of gold = 84.6%

Explanation:

Suppose the jewelry has x g of gold and y g of silver

The mass of both is the total mass of the jewelry then:

x + y = 11.54

And as the problem says the total volume is the sum of both volumes.

volume = mass / density

\frac{x}{19.3} + \frac{y}{10.5} = 0.675

Solving the system you get:

x = 9.764 g

y = 1.776 g

The percentage of gold in the jewelry is:

X_{gold} = \frac{9.764}{11.54} * 100 = 84.6\%

A balloon originally had a volume of 4.39 L at 44C and a pressure of 729 torr  to what temperature must the balloon be cooled
VMariaS [17]

The new temperature : 11.56 °C

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Boyle's law and Gay Lussac's law  

\tt \dfrac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}

P1 = initial gas pressure (N/m² or Pa)  

V1 = initial gas volume (m³)  

P2 = final gas pressure  

V2 = final gas volume

T1 = initial gas temperature (K)  

T2 = final gas temperature  

V₁=4.39 L

T₁=44+273=317 K

P₁ = 729 torr = 0,959211 atm

V₂=3.78 L

P₂= 1 atm

\tt \dfrac{0.959211\times 4.39}{317}=\dfrac{1\times 3.78}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{1\times 3.78\times 317}{0.959211\times 4.39}\\\\T_2=284.559~K=11.56~C
