First, calculating the amount of zinc carbonate by multiplying the given mass of the ore by the percent zinc carbonate. 
                          mass of zinc carbonate = (976 tons)(0.78) 
                                                       = 761.28 tons
Then, calculate for %Zn in zinc carbonate
                           %Zn = ((65.38) / (125.39)) x 100%
                                          % Zn = 52.141%
tons of Zn from the sample,
                           mass of Zn = (761.28 tons)(0.52141)
                                              = 396.94 tons Zn

Answer : The amount of zinc obtained can be 396.9 tons.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the amount zinc carbonate in 976 tons.

Amount of zinc carbonate = \frac{78.0}{100}\times 976\text{ tons}=761.28\text{ tons}

Now we have to calculate the percentage of zinc in zinc carbonate.

As we know that,

Atomic mass of zinc = 65.38 g

Atomic mass of zinc carbonate = 125.38 g

\% \text{ of zinc}=\frac{\text{Atomic mass of zinc}}{\text{Atomic mass of zinc carbonate}}\times 100

\% \text{ of zinc}=\frac{65.38}{125.38}\times 100=52.14\%

Now we have to calculate the amount of zinc in 761.28 tons.

Amount of zinc = \frac{52.14}{100}\times 761.28\text{ tons}=396.9\text{ tons}

Therefore, the amount of zinc obtained can be 396.9 tons.

PLZ HELP!<br><br> How do you think changing the angle of a ramp will affect work done?
kogti [31]

Answer: The steepness of a ramp affects it by making it easier or harder.

Explanation: It's a bit situational. If you were going up a steep ramp with a heavy load, it will increase the work necessary, whereas if you were going down a ramp, it would decrease the work necessary. If you need this simply put, think about biking up and down a hill. It would be easier going down than up.
