When dissolving gases in water, the amount dissolving (decreases, does not change, increases) when the pressure is increased?

If the concentration of water inside a cell is higher than the concentration of water outside a cell, osmosis will take place, as water will move from an area of low solute concentration inside the cell to higher solute concentration, outside the cell.

The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold.

Answer:

(a) $m_{gold}=7.322g$

(b)

$V_{gold}=0.379cm^3$

$V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

(c) $\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3$

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, with the given formula we easily compute the mass of gold contained in the sovereign as shown below:

$m_{gold}=\frac{m_{tota}*karats}{24}=\frac{7.988g*22}{24}=7.322g$

(b) Now, by knowing the density of gold and copper, 19.32 and 8.94 g/cm³ respectively, we compute each volume, by also knowing that the rest of the coin contains copper:

$V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}} =\frac{7.322g}{19.32g/cm^3}=0.379cm^3$

$m_{copper}=7.988g-7.322g=1.09g\\V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}=\frac{1.09g}{8.94g/cm^3} \\\\V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

(c) Finally, the volume is computed by dividing the total mass over the total volume containing both gold and copper:

$\rho _{coin}=\frac{m_{total}}{V_{gold}+V_{copper}}=\frac{7.988 g}{0.379cm^3+0.122cm^3}\\ \\\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3$

Best regards.
