Density is given by the equation D=m/V, were D is density, m is mass in grams, and V is volume in cubic centimeters.
In this problem, we have density and we have mass so we can plug into the equation and solve for V.
38.6=270.2/V
<em>*Multiply both sides by V*</em>
38.6V=270.2
<em>*Divide both sides by 38.6*</em>
V=7
The volume of the gold nugget is 7cm3.
Hope this helps!!
John Dalton made some hypothesis about the structure of atom. He proposed that matter is composed of great number of indivisible particles called atoms they can neither be destroyed nor be created.
<h3>What is atomic theory?</h3>
There are different theories regarding the structure and electronic properties of an atom. Many scientists contributed to the modern theory of atomic structure in which John Dalton was first to mention the word atom.
According to Dalton' theory, matter is composed of indivisible particles called atoms. Atoms can neither be created nor be destroyed. All the atoms of the same element are identical in all aspects.
Atoms of different elements are different and the compounds are formed by the combination of atoms. Dalton's theory provided a sound basis for the laws of chemical combination and also several properties of gases and liquids known at that time.
However, he could not explain the reason for chemical combination of atoms and did not give any idea about the existence of isotopes and isobars.
Hence, the main aspects of Dalton's theory was the indivisibility of atoms and the chances of chemical combination.

Answer:
Empirical formula is C3H3O
Molecular formula C9H9O3
Explanation:
From the question given, we obtained the following data:
Carbon = 63.15%
Hydrogen = 5.30%
Oxygen = 31.55%
We can obtain the empirical and molecular formula by doing the following as illustrated in the attached file. Please see attachment for explanation.
