Copper wire is sold in spools according to the gauge number of the wire. The gauge number refers to the diameter of the wire. Determine the number of meters that are present in a 10 lb spool of 12-gauge copper wire. (Copper has a density of 8.96 g/cm3. A 12-gauge wire has a diameter of 0.0808 in.) How many copper atoms are present in this length of wire?

Instructions: Make sure to make your explanations precise and show your complete solutions. Analyze situational problem/s involving chemical reactions and apply the Law of Mass Conservation. Jan Baptista van Helmont (1579–1644) recorded the mass of a young willow tree and the soil in which the tree was planted. Five years later he found that the mass of soil had decreased by only 0.057 kg, while that of the tree had increased by 75 kg. During that period, he had added only water to the bucket in which the tree was planted. Helmont concluded that essentially all the mass gained by the tree had come from the water. Was this a valid conclusion? Explain. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________

5. Epsom salt is commonly purchased in the pharmacy for a variety of uses, anti-inflammatory, laxative, and cosmetic. Epsom salt is a hydrated salt of magnesium sulfate. If 2.000 g of Epsom salt are heated to remove the waters of hydration, 0.977 g of the anhydrous (without water) magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, were obtained. Calculate the number of waters of hydration, and write the chemical formula of the Epsom salt.

Boron trifluoride is used as a catalyst in the synthesis of or-ganic compounds. When this compound is analyzed by massspectrometry several different 1+ ions form, including ions representing the whole molecule as well as molecular fragments formed by the loss of one,two, and three F atoms. Given that boron has two naturally occurring isotopes, ¹⁰B and ¹¹B, and fluorine has one, ¹⁹F, calculate the masses of all possible 1+ ions
