4. A salvage operator recovered coins believed to be gold. A sample weighed 385.000g and has a volume of 20.0mL. Were the coins

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Gold

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of sample ,m=385 g

Volume ,V=20mL

We have to find the coin is gold or yellow brass.

We know that

Density= $\frac{Mass}{volume}$

Using the formula

$Density=\frac{385}{20}g/mL$

$Density=19.25g/mL$

$Density\approx 19.3g/mL$

Density of coin=19.3g/mL

Density of gold=19.3g/mL

Hence, the coin is gold.

Solve for V2 when P1 = 1.0 atm V1 = 22.4 L and P2 = 4.0 atm <br> This is a Boyle’s law gas problem

morpeh [17]

P1/V1=P2/V2
1/22.4=4/x
X=4 multiple by 22.4
V2=89.6L
