There are 31.1 grams (g) in 1 troy ounce (ozt). How many ozt of gold are extracted from 1 short ton of average Nevada ore

1 answer:

4 0

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:

$\frac{3.2gAu}{1short-ton}*1short-ton*\frac{1otz}{31.1g} \\$

Where the short tons are cancelled out as well as the grams, in order to obtain:

$0.103 otz$

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

the Law of multiple proportions

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions states that, if two elements A and B combine to form more than one chemical compound, then the various masses of one of the elements A, which combines with a fixed mass of the element B are in simple multiple ratio.

This is demonstrated in the formation of nitrogen compounds such as NO and N2O when nitrogen combines with oxygen. This ratio is always constant.

Find the volume of 20g of benzene

sergey [27]

(d) Density of Benzene: 0.8786 g/cm cubed

(m) Mass: 20.00g

Formula to solve (v) volume of benzene: V=m/d

V=20g / 0.8786g/cm cubed

Answer: Volume of benzene is: 22.8 cm cubed

Explanation: Well, density is mass divided volume. In this, it is what the volume is. All you need is mass divided by density. Hope this helps!

Explanation:

The ratio of the amount of analyte in the stationary phase to the amount in the mobile phase. --- Retention factor.

Time it takes after sample injection into the column for the analyte peak to appear as it exits the column. -- Retention time

The process of extracting a component that is adsorbed to a given material by use of an appropriate solvent system. -- Elution

Measure of chromatographic column efficiency. The greater its value, the more efficient the column. -- Theoretical plate number

Gas, liquid, or supercritical fluid used to transport the sample in chromatographic separations. -- Mobile phase

Immiscible and immobile, it is packed within a column or coated on a solid surface. -- Stationary phase
