The formula of chalcopyrite is CuFeS₂.
The molar mass of chalcopyrite   - 183.5 g/mol
The mass of Cu in 1 mol of chalcopyrite is - 63.5 g
When 183.5 g of chalcopyrite is mined, the mass of Cu obtained - 63.5 g
So if 63.g of Cu is needed mass of chalcopyrite required - 183.5 g 
Then to gain 370 g of pure Cu - mass of chalcopyrite needed -183.5/63.5 x 370
therefore mass of chalcopyrite to be mined - 1069.21 g

The dimensions of a cupboard are 1.31 m wide
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The volume of cupboard is 2.0043 m³.

Explanation:

Given data:

width of cupboard = 1.31 m

length of cupboard = 0.9 m

height of cupboard = 1.70 m

Volume = ?

Solution:

Volume = length × width × height

Volume = 0.9 m × 1.31 m × 1.70 m

Volume = 2.0043 m³

The volume of cupboard is 2.0043 m³.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Ca3(PO4)2- Increase in solubility

Barium hydroxide- increase in solubility

Magnesium carbonate- increase in solubility

Copper II sulphide- increase solubility

Lead II bromide- increase solubility

CuI - increase solubility

Explanation:

Calcium phosphate solubility is pH dependent. At lower pH, calcium phosphate is more soluble in water while at pH above 8.5, the solubility of calcium phosphate decreases markedly.

For Barium hydroxide and magnesium carbonate,decreasing the pH will increase the solubility of the compound.

For copper II sulphide,decreasing the pH will lead to a greater solubility. Also, lead II bromide is ordinarily insoluble in water but it's solubility increases with decreasing pH.

CuI is insoluble in water but soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid.
