Answer:
1 mole of platinum
Explanation:
To obtain the number of mole(s) of platinum present, we need to determine the empirical formula for the compound.
The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained as follow:
Platinum (Pt) = 117.4 g
Carbon (C) = 28.91 g
Nitrogen (N) = 33.71 g
Divide by their molar mass
Pt = 117.4 / 195 = 0.602
C = 28.91 / 12 = 2.409
N = 33.71 / 14 = 2.408
Divide by the smallest
Pt = 0.602 / 0.602 = 1
C = 2.409 / 0.602 = 4
N = 2.408 / 0.602 = 4
The empirical formula for the compound is PtC₄N₄ => Pt(CN)₄
From the formula of the compound (i.e Pt(CN)₄), we can see clearly that the compound contains 1 mole of platinum.
Answer:
10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)
Explanation:
All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt
which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k
A = final weight = 1.0 gram
A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams
k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹
t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)
≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)
If iron has a density of 7.87g/cm³ and a mass of 3.729g, then the volume of iron is 0.474cm³
HOW TO CALCULATE VOLUME:
- The volume of a substance can be calculated by dividing the mass by its density. That is;
Volume (mL) = mass (g) ÷ density (g/mL)
- The density of iron is given as 7.87g/cm³ while its mass is 3.729g of iron. Hence, the volume can be calculated as follows:
Volume = 3.729 ÷ 7.87
Volume = 0.474cm³
Therefore, the volume of iron is 0.474cm³

<h2>Giant impact and metalcore.</h2>
Explanation :
- Mercury has a large core of liquid metal.
- The metal core is of iron metal.
- The core is surrounded by a mantle which is made up of silica and a solid outer crust.
- In the case of Mercury, the total core percentage is 42% of the planet while the Earth's core is only 17% of the planet.
- Mercury has lost part of its mantle and crust that left the mercury with a large metal core.
