Answer:

263.1 is exactly three half-life, so the remaining portion is (1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2) of the original sample. That's 1/8 which is 12.5%

Gold is alloyed (mixed) with other metals to increase its hardness in making jewelry.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

A) 54.04%

B) 13-karat

Explanation:

A) From the problem we have

<em>1)</em> Mg + Ms = 9.40 g

<em>2)</em> Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³

Where M stands for mass, V stands for volume, and g and s stand for gold and silver respectively.

We can rewrite the first equation using the density values:

<em>3)</em> Vg * 19.3 g/cm³ + Vs * 10.5 g/cm³ = 9.40

So now we have<em> a system of two equations</em> (2 and 3) <em>with two unknowns</em>:

We <u>express Vg in terms of Vs</u>:

  • Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg = 0.675 - Vs

We <u>replace the value of Vg in equation 3</u>:

  • Vg * 19.3 + Vs * 10.5 = 9.40
  • (0.675-Vs) * 19.3 + Vs * 10.5 = 9.40
  • 13.0275 - 19.3Vs + 10.5Vs = 9.40
  • -8.8 Vs + 13.0275 = 9.40
  • <u>Vs = 0.412 cm³</u>

Now we <u>calculate Vg</u>:

  • Vg + Vs = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg + 0.412 cm³ = 0.675 cm³
  • Vg = 0.263 cm³

We <u>calculate Mg from Vg</u>:

  • 0.263 cm³ * 19.3 g/cm³ = 5.08 g

We calculate the mass percentage of gold:

  • 5.08 / 9.40 * 100% = 54.04%

B)

We multiply 24 by the percentage fraction:

  • 24 * 54.04/100 = 12.97-karat ≅ 13-karat

How many grams are in 1.6 moles of potassium bromide?​
slava [35]

Answer:

190.4g

Explanation:

1.6mol of KBr (119.002g KBr/1 mol) = 190.4g

since you want to find grams, take the molar mass of KBr (119.002) per 1 mol and use it as your conversion factor (119.002g KBr/1 mol) which will then cancel out mols and leave you with grams.

How many milliliters of 0.150 M NaOH are required to neutralize 85.0 mL of 0.300 M H2SO4 ? The balanced neutralization reaction
nekit [7.7K]

Answer : The volume of NaOH required to neutralize is, 340 mL

Explanation :

To calculate the volume of base (NaOH), we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is H_2SO_4

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=2\\M_1=0.300M\\V_1=85.0mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.150M\\V_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2\times 0.300M\times 85.0mL=1\times 0.150M\times V_2\\\\V_2=340mL

Hence, the volume of NaOH required to neutralize is, 340 mL

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

2.64 × 10⁶ g

Explanation:

We can find the mass of air using the ideal gas equation.

P.V=n.R.T=\frac{m}{M} .R.T

where,

P is the pressure (P = 1.00 atm)

V is the volume (V = 2.95 × 10⁶ L)

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant (0.08206atm.L/mol.K)

T is the absolute temperature (121°C + 273 = 394 K)

m is the mass

M is the molar mass (28.09 g/mol)

m=\frac{P.V.M}{R.T} =\frac{1.00atm \times 2.95 \times 10^{6} L \times 28.97g/mol}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K) \times 394 K } =2.64 \times 10^{6} g
