Firstly calculate the grams in the last 8 percent before moving onto the pyrite section.
50.8x0.08=4.064g
We know that iron ore in this case has 92 percent pyrite which contains 46.5 percent iron so we do 50.8x0.92=46.736g from this we need to find 46.5 percent of the iron content in the 92 percent pyrite section then add this answer to the 8 percent of iron ore we found at the start.46.736x0.465=21.73224g
21.73224g+4.064=25.79624g of iron ore 25.8g(3sf)

Can someone please help me with these questions. image attached
Radda [10]
Question 9. The first one is the smallest. Anything with a negative exponent is going to be less than 1, the .00000241. The exponent tells you the number of zeroes to the right of the decimal point. Farther to right gets smaller and smaller.

Question 10. The last one is true. If the last digit is smaller than 5, drop the digit, and do not change. (If it is a 5 or larger, the digit before it would round up)

60 kg of fuel was completely burnt for an experiment. The amount of heat energy was found to be 180000KJ. Calculate calorific va
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

3000 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The calorific value of a substance is the amount of heat produced per unit mass by the combustion of the substance.

It is given by:

C=\frac{Q}{m}

where

Q is the amount of heat released

m is the mass of the fuel

In this problem, we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of fuel

Q=180,000 kJ is the amount of heat released

Therefore, the calorific value of the fuel is:

C=\frac{180,000}{60}=3000 kJ/kg

Sterling silver is 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. Its density is 10.25 g/cm3. A sterling silver pendant is added to a graduated c
Mariulka [41]

From the information given:

  • The volume of the graduated cylinder = 50.0 mL
  • when a sterling silver pendant is added, the volume increases to = 61.3 mL

∴

The volume of the sterling silver pendant is:

= 61.3 mL - 50.0 mL

= 11.3 mL

Since, 1 mL = 1cm³

Then;

11.3 mL = 11.3 cm³

  • the density of the sterling silver = 10.25 g/cm³

Using the relation for Density; i.e.

\mathbf{Density = \dfrac{mass}{volume}}

\mathbf{10.25 \ g/cm^3= \dfrac{mass}{11.3  \ cm^3}}

mass = 10.25 g/cm³× 11.3 cm³

mass of the sterling silver = 115.825 grams

Recall that sterling silver has:

  • 92.5% silver and;
  • 7.5% copper

∴

The mass of the copper contained in the sterling silver pendant can be calculated as:

\mathbf{= \dfrac{115.825  \ g \times 7.5}{100}}

= 8.687 grams

Therefore, we can conclude that the mass of the copper contained in the sterling silver pendant is 8.687 grams
