If a sample of gold alloy has a mass of 87.7 g and is 78.3% gold by mass, what percentage of the alloy is made up of other metals? Write your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.
(I had to alter the wording of this question since it wasn't calculating significant figures properly, so if you got it wrong because of significant figures you can assume you probably actually got it correct.)
The volume of a gold idol is approximately 1.0L. The density of gold is 19.3 g/ml and the density of sand is 2.3 g/ml. What volume would the bag of sand be in order to weigh exactly the same as the idol?
Ultrapure silicon is used to make solid-state devices, such as computer chips. If the volume of a piece of silicon is 2.5 mL and the density of silicon is 2.33 g/mL, what is the mass of the silicon piece? (Provide your answer rounded correctly, taking significant figures into account.)

- On October 21, 1982, the Bureau of the Mint changed the composition of pennies (see Exercise 120). Instead of an alloy of 95% Cu and 5% Zn by mass, a core of 99.2% Zn and 0.8% Cu with a thin shell of copper was adopted. The overall composition of the new penny was 97.6% Zn and 2.4% Cu by mass. Does this account for the difference in mass among die pennies in Exercise 120? Assume the volume of the individual metals that make up each penny can be added together to give the overall volume of the penny, and assume each penny is the same size. (Density of Cu = 8.96 g/cm3; density of Zn = 7.14 g/cm3).arrow_forward1.82 Which of the following molecular-scale diagrams best represents a pure compound?
