Common brass is a copper and zinc alloy containing 37.0% zinc by mass and having a density of 8.48 g/cm3. A fitting composed of common brass has a total volume of 115.5 cm3.

I.) How many atoms of copper does the fitting contain?    

II.) How many atoms of zinc does the fitting contain?

 

Boron has only two naturally occurring isotopes. The mass of boron-10 is 10.01294 amu and the mass of boron-11 is 11.00931 amu.

Use the atomic mass of boron to calculate the relative abundance of boron-10.

Lithium has two naturally occurring isotopes: Li-66 (natural abundance 7.5%) and Li-7 (natural abundance 92.5%).

How many Li-6 atoms would be present, on average, in a 9000-atom sample of lithium?
