Answer:

0.32 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of weight of -copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel = 177:12:7:4

let the

weight of copper = 177x

weight of zinc = 12x

weight of manganese = 7x

weight of nickel = 4x

Total weight of this alloy in terms of x =  177x + 12x+ 7x + 4x = 300x

given weight of alloy = 8 grams

thus,

weight of this alloy in terms of x =given weight of alloy

300x = 8 grams

x = 8/300 grams =

weight of zinc = 12x = 12 * 8/300 grams = 96/300 grams = 0.32 grams
