Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 110CP
Draw a picture showing the markings (graduations) on glassware that would allow you to make each of the following volume measurements of water, and explain your answers (the numbers given are as precise as possible).
- a. 128.7 mL
- b. 18mL
- c. 23.45 mL
If you made these measurements for three samples of water and then poured all of the water together in one container, what total volume of water should you report? Support your answer.

Gold is alloyed (mixed) with other metals to increase its hardness in making jewellery. Consider a piece of gold jewellery that weighs 12.0 g and has a volume of 0.675 cm3. The jewellery contains only gold and silver, which have densities of 19.3 g/cm3Â and 10.5 g/cm3, respectively. Assuming that the total volume of the jewellery is the sum of the volumes of the gold and silver that it contains, calculate the percentage of gold (by mass) in the jewellery.
compound? element? solution? heterogeneous? pure substances?
a. soda pop
b. used motor oil freshly drained from a car
d.the diamond in a peace of jewelry
e. 25 centavo coin
If you had 225 grams of water, what volume would that sample of water occupy? (use your average density you stated above.)
