Answer:

The sample is fool's gold

Explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio between mass in grams and volume in mililiters.

A sample of pure gold has a density of 19.3g/mL.

Using Archimedes' principle, the volume of the sample is:

52.2mL - 47.5mL = 4.7mL

As the mass of the sample is 23.5g, the density is:

23.5g / 4.7mL = 5g/mL

The denisty of the sample is very different to density of pure gold, that means:

<em>the sample is fool's gold</em>

Which will contain the greater number of moles of potassium ion: 30.0 ml of 0.15 m k2cro4 or 25.0 ml of 0.080 m k3po4?
Dahasolnce [82]
<span>30.0 ml of 0.15 m K2CrO4 solution will have more potassium ions. Let's see the relative number of potassium ions for each solution. Since all the measurements are the same, the real difference is the K2CrO4 will only have 2 potassium ions per molecule while the K3PO4 solution will have 3 potassium ions per molecule. K2CrO4 solution 30.0 * 0.15 * 2 = 9 K3PO4 solution 25.0 * 0.080 * 3 = 6 Since 9 is greater than 6, the K2CrO4 solution will have more potassium ions.</span>

How do I convert units the easiest
damaskus [11]
To convert among units in the metric system, identify the unitthat you have, the unit that you want to convert to, and then count the number of units between them. If you are going from a larger unit to a smaller unit, you multiply by 10 successively
