Answer:

a) 128 grams

b) 81.25%

Explanation:

a) The mixture will be between the alloy and the pure copper, so the mass will be the sum of the mass of the compounds:

m = 50 + 78 = 128 g

b) In the alloy, 52% is copper, so to know the mass of copper in the alloy, we must multiply the total mass by 52% (which is 0.52)

0.52x50 = 26 g of copper

The total mass of copper in the mixture is 26 + 78 = 104 g

So, the percentual of copper is the mass of copper divided by the total mass

104/128 = 0.8125

Multiplying by 100%, to have the result in percentage

0.8125x100% = 81.25%

There are two physical properties of minerals that both result in smooth, flat surfaces with specific angles between them. The f
stich3 [128]

Answer:

3. crystal habit and cleavage.

Explanation:

Crystal habit is a distinctive characteristic which is shown in its general shape,  crystallographic forms, how developed each form is.

Cleavage is the ability of a mineral to break in smooth planes parallel to zones of weak bonding. Cleavage in three directions at right angles (90o). Cubic cleavage. Cleavage in three directions not at right angles (120o and 60o).

Water circulates through Earth's water cycle by changing its _____.
iragen [17]
Water moved through the water cycle by changing its state. Think, for example, of water evaporating (liquid to gas), snow sublimating (solid to gas) or melting (solid to liquid), rain (gas to liquid), sleet (liquid to solid), or snow (gas to solid).

The answer would thus be A.
