Gold is actually very soft. If rings were made of pure gold they would bend and become disfigured. Other elements are added to give the ring its stability.

100% gold is too soft, and isn't nearly as durable as it needs to be.

I have a free response question due for an Ap Chemistry class. It states, an experiment is to be performed to determine the mass
34kurt

Answer:

Hi AP Chemistry student. It seems this experiment is impossible. Sterling Silver cannot be separated so easily with this pathetic equipment. However, if one were to carry this experiment out, I would assume they would need to put the alloy in the graduated cylinder and then somehow filter the silver out through filter paper or Buchner funnel. taking the mass with a stir rod is also helpful for the mass percent calculation. I hope this helps you out, good luck in Mrs. Fischer's class :)
