This problem is providing us with the mass equivalent to one troy ounce. Thus, the troy ounces of gold in one short ton of average Nevada ore is required and found to be the 0.103 otz according to the following dimensional analysis.
<h3>Dimensional analysis</h3>
In chemistry, a raft of problems do not always provide an equation in order to be solved yet dimensional analysis can be applied, so as to obtain the desired amount in the required units.
Thus, since this problem asks for try ounces in an average Nevada ore, which has 3.2 grams of gold per short ton of ore, one can solve the following setup in order to obtain the required answer in otz:
Where the short tons are cancelled out as well as the grams, in order to obtain:

Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Matter is either a <em>pure substance</em> or a <em>mixture.
</em>
Pure substances
- Are composed of one type of atom or molecule.
- Have a constant chemical composition
- Have fixed chemical properties
- Have fixed physical properties
• For example, melting point, boiling point, density, solubility
Mixtures:
- Consist of two or more substances not chemically combined
- Have a variable composition
- Can be separated into two or more components by physical means
• For example, filtration, distillation, centrifugation
- Each component retains its own properties
to have the closest number rounded up
Compound is formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together. elements are made of atoms
In order for you to calculate
for the mass of ammonium carbonate, you need to know the molar mass of it and
the nitrogen atoms in the compound. Ammonium carbonate has a molar mass of
96.08 grams per mole. There are two nitrogen atoms in ammonium carbonate which
is equal to 28.02 grams per mole. Divide the molar mass of nitrogen to the
ammonium carbonate, 28.02/96.08 x 100, we get 29.16wt% nitrogen.
