Answer:

The correct answer would be - 13.0975 ounces.

Explanation:

We know that brass is made up of zinc and copper. The copper part of the brass is approximately around 50 to 70% and the remaining is the zinc part.

Given:

Zinc percentage in a brass = 35%

copper percentage would be - 65% (100 - 35 = 65)

Weight of the brass metal bar = 20.15 ounce

ounces of copper are in the bar = ?

Solution:

The weight of the copper in the brass metal in ounces-

= weight of brass* percentage of copper/100

= 20.15*65/100

= 13.0975 ounces of copper.

2nd method =

The weight of the zinc in the brass metal in ounces-

= weight of brass* percentage of zinc/100

= 20.15*35/100

= 7.0525

The weight of the copper = total weight - weight of zinc

= 13.0975 ounces of copper.

Solid cesium iodide has the same kind of crystal structure as CsCl which is pictured below: If the edge length of the unit cell
Assoli18 [71]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Solid cesium iodide has the same kind of crystal structure as CsCl which is pictured below: If the edge length of the unit cell is 456.2 pm, what is the density of CsI in g/cm^3

The image is attached below.

<u>Answer:</u> The density of CsI is 9.09g/cm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the density of metal, we use the equation:

\rho=\frac{Z\times M}{N_{A}\times a^{3}}

where,

\rho = density

Z = number of atom in unit cell = 2  (BCC)

M = atomic mass of CsI = 259.8 g/mol

N_{A} = Avogadro's number = 6.022\times 10^{23}

a = edge length of unit cell = 456.2pm=456.2\times 10^{-10}cm    (Conversion factor:  1cm=10^{10}pm  )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\rho=\frac{1\times 259.8}{6.022\times 10^{23}\times (456.2\times 10^{-10})^3}\\\\\rho=9.09g/cm^3

Hence, the density of CsI is 9.09g/cm^3
