The density of Iron (Fe) is 7.9g/cm3, Copper (Cu) is 9.0g/cm3, Silver (Ag) is 10.5g/cm3, and Zinc (Zn) is 7.1g/cm3. Your friend

wants to sell you a chain and swears that it's silver. You pour 50 mL of water into a graduated cylinder and add the chain. The new reading is 70mL. You then dry and mass the chain, and find that it's 142g,
a. What is the density of the chain?

A dark brown binary compound contains oxygen and a metal. It is 13.38% oxygen by mass. Heating it moderately drives off some of
Leto [7]

Answer:

a) Mass of O in compound A = 32.72 g

Mass of O in compound B =  21.26 g

Mass of O in compound C = 15.94 g

b) Compound A = MO2

Compound B = M3O4

Compound C = MO

c) M = Pb

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A binairy compound contains oxygen (O) and metal (M)

⇒ 13.38 % O

⇒ 100 - 13.38 = 86.62 % M

After heating we get another binairy compound

⇒ 9.334 % O

⇒ 100 - 9.334 = 90.666 % M

After heating we get another binairy compound

⇒ 7.168 % O

⇒ 100 - 7.168 = 92.832 % M

The first compound has an empirical formula of MO2

⇒ 1 mol M for 2 moles O

Step 2: Calculate amount of metal and oxygen in each

compound A:   M  = m1 *0.8662    O = m1 *0.1338

compound B:   M  = m2 *0.90666    O = m2 *0.09334

compound C:   M  = m3 *0.92832    O = m3 *0.07168

Step 3: Calculate mass of oxygen with 1.000 grams of M

Compound A: 1.000g * 0.1338 m1gO  / 0.8662m1gMetal = 0.1545

Compound B: 1.000g * 0.09334 m2gO  / 0.90666m2gMetal = 0.1029

Compound C: 1.000g * 0.07168 m3gO  / 0.92832m3gMetal = 0.07721

Step 4:

1 mol MO2 has 1 mol M and 2 moles O

m1 = (mol O * 16)/0.1338   m1 = 239.2 grams

1 mol M = 0.8632*239.2 = 206.48

0.90666m2 = 206.48  ⇒ m2 = 227.74 g

0.92832m3 = 206.48  ⇒ m3 = 222.42 g

Step 5: Calculate mass of O

Mass of O in compound A = 239.2 - 206.48 = 32.72 g

Mass of O in compound B = 227.74 - 206.48 = 21.26 g

Mass of O in compound C = 222.42- 206.48 = 15.94 g

Step 6: Calculate moles

Moles of O in compound A ≈ 2

⇒ MO2

Moles of O in compound B = 21.26 / 16 ≈ 1.33

⇒ M3O4

Moles of O compound C = 15.94 /16 ≈ 1 moles

⇒ MO

Step 7: Calculate molar mass

The mass of 1 mol metal is 206.48 grams  ⇒ molar mass ≈ 206.48 g/mol

The closest metal to this molar mass is lead (Pb)
