Gold occurs in the ocean in a range of concentrations of 0.1 to 2 mg gold per ton of seawater. Near one costal city the gold concentration in the ocean is 0.44 mg/ton. How many tons of seawater have to be processed to obtain 1.0 troy once of gold if the recovery is 64% successful? (The troy ounce, 31.1 g, is the standard "ounce" in the gold trade.) i ton If gold can be sold for $1356.96 per troy ounce, what is the breakeven point in the dollar-cost per ton of processed seawater for extracting gold from the ocean at this location?

If you put exactly 1 cup (or 237 ml) of distilled water into a 2 cup measuring cup. Place two level tsps of table salt in the measuring cup. Mixed it thoroughly. Remember that 1 tsp of table salt weighs 4.0 grams. The density of the water at room temperature is 1.0 g/ml then if you used 237 ml of water (1 cup) than that is 237 grams of water. using the formula for mass percent (m/m) = (mass of solute (g)/ mass of solute + mass of solvent) x 100%, calculate the mass percent of your solution. show your calculations
