You have a piece of gold jewelry weighing 9.35g. Its volume is 0.654cm 3 . Assume the metal is an alloy of gold and silver, whic

h have densities of 19.3g/cm 3 and 10.5g/cm 3 , respectively. Also assume that there is no change in volume when the pure metals are mixed. Calculate the percentage of gold (by mass) in the alloy.

Answer:

57.54% is the percentage of gold by mass in the alloy.

Explanation:

The mass of the mixture is 9.35g. That is:

9.35g = Mass Gold + Mass Silver

Mass silver = 9.35g - Mass gold (1)

Now, the volume of the jewelry is the sum of volumes of gold and silver:

0.654cm³ = Mass Gold / 19.5g/cm³ + Mass silver / 10.5g/cm³ (2)

<em>Volume = Mass / Density.</em>

Replacing (1) in (2):

0.654cm³ = Mass Gold / 19.5g/cm³ + (9.35g - Mass gold) / 10.5g/cm³

0.654 = 0.051282 Mass Gold + 0.890476 - 0.095238 Mass gold

-0.236476 = -0.043956 Mass gold

Mass gold = 5.38g

And mass percent of gold in the alloy is:

5.38g / 9.35g * 100 =

How many particles are in 3.2 mole of neon gas
Cerrena [4.2K]

There are 1.93 x 10²⁴ particles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

3.2 moles of Neon gas

Required

Number of particles

Solution

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

<em>1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles </em>

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

So the number of particles for 3.2 moles :

N = 3.2 x 6.02.10²³

N = 1.93 x 10²⁴

or

we can describe it using Avogadro's number conversion factor

\tt 3.2~moles\times \dfrac{6.02\times 10^{23}}{1~mole}=1.93\times 10^{24}

Calculate the ΔHrxn for the following
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

2 NO (g) → N2 (g) + O2 (g)

2 NOCl (g) → 2 NO (g) + Cl2 (g)

____________________________

2NOCl (g) ⟶ N2 (g) + O2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

ΔH = [90.3 kJ x 2 x -1] +  [-38.6 kJ x -1 x 2] = -103.4 kJ

The ΔH for the reaction is -103.4 kJ

FinnZ [79.3K]
Pyridoxine contains 11 hydrogen atoms, 8 carbon atoms, 3 oxygen atoms, and 1 nitrogen atom. The chemical formula would be C8H11NO3. A chemical formula of a substance tells the number of atoms of the elements that is involved in the compound. Pyrodoxine is commonly known as vitamin B6. It is mostly found in food like meat, whole grains, nuts and avocados. Also, it is can be present in dietary supplements. It has a number of important functions in the body. Dietary supplements are manufactured to prevent vitamin B6 deficiency. Also, it is used in treating a specific type of anemia or the lack of red blood cells.
