Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 30E
A 32.65-g sample of a solid is placed in a flask. Toluene, in which the solid is insoluble, is added to the flask so that the total volume of solid and liquid together is 50.00 mL. The solid and toluene together weigh 58.58 g. The density of toluene at the temperature of the experiment is 0.864 g/mL. What is the density of the solid?

You are asked to calibrate a 25 mL volumetric pipet. You determine that the temperature of your distilled water is exactly 24.5 degrees Celsius. You carefully determined the mass of a clean dry beaker and found that it was 57.5513 g. You pulled water up to the mark and transferred this to the beaker and found that the new mass was 82.9344 g. What is the actual volume of the pipet? The density of water at 24.5 degrees Celsius is 0.997983 g/mL.
You are asked to calibrate a 25.00 mL volumetric pipet. You determine the temperature of your distilled water is exactly 30 degrees celsius. You carefully determined the mass of a clean, dry beaker and found it was 60.1703 g. You pulled the water up to the mark and transferred this to the beaker and found that the new mass was 85.2263 g. What is the actualy volume of the pipet?
I tried answering the question above by doing 85.2263 - 60.1703 = 25.056 g
I then used 25.056 and multipled it with .995646 (which is the density of water at 30 degrees celsius I believe)
The answer I got is 24.947
I am not sure if I am just doing the problem wrong or if it is simply my signifcant figures that are off? Please help :))
Dust falls on Chicago at a rate of 65 mg m-2 day-1. Major metallic elements in the dust include aluminum, copper, lead,
magnesium, manganese and zinc. Lead accumulates at a rate of 0.029 mg m-2 day-1. How many metric tons (1 metric ton = 1000
kg, an exact equality) of lead fall on the 535 km2 of Chicago in one year?
