<u>Answer:</u> The percent composition of
in taconite is 37.6 %.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Mass of taconite pellets = 1 ton = 907185 g (Conversion factor: 1 ton = 907185 g)
Mass of iron produced = 545 lb = 247212 g (Conversion factor: 1 lb = 453.6 g )
We know that:
Molar mass of iron = 55.85 g/mol
Molar mass of
= 231.53 g/mol
1 mole of
contains 3 moles of iron atom and 4 moles of oxygen atom
(3 × 55.85) = 167.55 g of iron is produced from 231.53 grams of 
So, 247212 grams of iron will be produced from =
of 
To calculate the percentage of
in taconite, we use the equation:

Mass of taconite = 907185 g
Mass of
= 341611.43 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the percent composition of
in taconite is 37.6 %.
False the opposite should happen!

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- The mineral’s physical properties are used in identifying minerals and are determined by its chemical composition and crystal structure.
- <u>Streak</u> is the color of the mineral in powdered form and since it is a more accurate illustration of the mineral’s color, its is a more reliable property of minerals than color for identification.
- <u>Hardness</u> is one of the better properties of minerals to use for identifying a mineral. Hardness is a measure of the mineral’s resistance to scratching.
- <u>Density</u> may be used to identify minerals. It is used to describe the amount of matter in a certain amount of space. Substances that have more matter packed into a given space have higher densities.
The required amount of silver nitrate to produce 16.2g of silver is 25.48 grams.
<h3>What is the relation between mass & moles?</h3>
Relation between the mass and moles of any substance will be represented as:
n = W/M, where
- W = given mass
- M = molar mass
Moles of silver = 16.2g / 107.8g/mol = 0.15mol
From the stoichiometry of the given reaction it is clear that, same moles of silver nitrate is required to produce same moles of silver. So 0.15 moles of silver nitrate is required.
Mass of silver nitrate = (0.15mol)(169.87g/mol) = 25.48g
Hence required mass of silver nitrate is 25.48g.

Answer:
No because it is stayed that way and you can't define them differently.
