The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold.

azamat

Answer:

(a) $m_{gold}=7.322g$

(b)

$V_{gold}=0.379cm^3$

$V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, with the given formula we easily compute the mass of gold contained in the sovereign as shown below:

$m_{gold}=\frac{m_{tota}*karats}{24}=\frac{7.988g*22}{24}=7.322g$

(b) Now, by knowing the density of gold and copper, 19.32 and 8.94 g/cm³ respectively, we compute each volume, by also knowing that the rest of the coin contains copper:

$V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}} =\frac{7.322g}{19.32g/cm^3}=0.379cm^3$

$m_{copper}=7.988g-7.322g=1.09g\\V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}=\frac{1.09g}{8.94g/cm^3} \\\\V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

$\rho _{coin}=\frac{m_{total}}{V_{gold}+V_{copper}}=\frac{7.988 g}{0.379cm^3+0.122cm^3}\\ \\\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3$

Best regards.
