- 1.90 A calibrated flask was filled to the 25.00-mL mark with ethyl alcohol and was found to have a mass of 19.7325 g. In a second experiment, 25.0920 g of metal beads were put into the container and the flask was again filled to the 25.00-mL mark. The total mass of the metal plus the alcohol was 43 .0725 g. Describe how to determine the density of the metal sample.arrow_forwardA load of bauxite has a density of 3.15 g/cm3. If the mass of the load is 115 metric tons, how many dump trucks, each with a capacity of 12 cubic yards, will be needed to haul the whole load?arrow_forwardA few years ago a young chemist in Vienna, Austria, wanted to see just how permanent the gold was in his wedding band. The ring was 18-carat gold. (18-carat gold is 75% gold with the remainder copper and sliver) One week after his wedding day he took off the ring, cleaned it carefully, and weighed it. It had a mass of 5.58387 g. He weighed it weekly from then on,and after 1 year it had lost 6.15 mg just from normal wear and tear. He found that the activities that took the greatest toll on the gold were vacationing on a sandy beach and gardening. (a) What are the symbol of the elements that make up 18-carat gold? (b) The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3. Use one of the periodic tables on the Internet (such as www.ptable.com) to find out if gold is the most dense of all of the known elements. If it is not gold, then what element is the most dense [considering only the elements from hydrogen (H) through uranium (U)]? (c) If a wedding band is 18-carat gold and has a mass of 5.58 g, what mass of gold is contained within the ring? (d) Assume there are 56 million married couples in the United States, and each person has an 18-carat gold ring. What mass of gold lost by all the wedding rings in the United States in 1 year (in units of grams) if each ring loses 6.15 mg of mass per year? Assuming gold is 1620 per troy ounce (where 1 troy ounce = 31.1 g), what is the lost gold worth?arrow_forward
- 1.89 Imagine that you place a cork measuring 1.30cm4.50cm3.00cm in a pan of water. On top of this cork, you place a small cube of lead measuring 1.15 cm on a side. Describe how you would determine if the combination of the cork and lead cube will still float in the water. Note any information you would need to look up to answer the question.arrow_forward1.48 A rock is placed on a balance and its mass is determined as 12.1 g. When the rock is then placed in a graduated cylinder that originally contains 11.3 mL of water, the new volume is roughly 17 rnL. How should the density of the rock be reported?arrow_forward1.84 A student was given two metal cubes that looked similar. One was 1.05 cm on an edge and had a mass of 14.32 grams; the other was 2.66 cm on a side and had a mass of 215.3 grams. How can the student determine if these two cubes of metal are the same material using only the data given?arrow_forward
