Chapter 1, Problem 1.116MP
A calibrated flask was filled to the 25.00 mL mark withethyl alcohol. By weighing the flask before and after adding the alcohol, it was determined that the flask contained 19.7325 g of alcohol. In a second experiment, 25.0920 g of metal beads were added to the flask, and the flask was again filled to the 25.00 mL mark with ethyl alcohol. The total mass of the metal plus alcohol in the flask was determined to be 38.4704 g. What is the density of the metal in g/mL?

You curl your hair by getting a “permanent wave” at the hair salon. Ice on your sidewalk melts when you put salt on it. A glass of water evaporates overnight when it is left on the bedside table. Your steak chars if the skillet is too hot. Alcohol feels cool when it is spilled on the skin. Alcohol ignites when a flame is brought near it. Baking powder causes biscuits to rise.arrow_forwardOn 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_forward3.37 If atypical grain of sand occupies a volume of 1.3 × 10-4 cm3, what is the volume (in cm3) of 1 mole of sand (ignoring the space between grains)?

Decide whether the result of the experiment tells you the substance is a pure substance or a mixture, if you can. • Sample A is 100. g of a coarse grey powder with a faint unpleasant smell. 15. g of the powder is put into a funnel lined with a sheet of thick paper. Distilled water is poured slowly over the powder. All of the powder disappears, and the water under the funnel turns a deep purple. • Sample B is a solid yellow cube with a total mass of 50.0 g. The cube is ground to a fine orange powder and added to a 500 mL beaker full of water. The beaker is stirred vigorously. Some of orange powder settles to the bottom of the beaker, and some rises to the top and floats on the water. When the powder at both the bottom and the top of the beaker is filtered out, dried, and weighed, the total mass is measured to be 50.1 g. pure substance Is sample A made from a pure substance or a mixture?

The king suspected that his crown, which was supposed to be made of pure gold, contained some silver alloy, and he asked Archimedes to prove or disprove his suspicion. (It turned out that the crown did not contain silver.) How would you experimentally determined whether or not the crown was pure gold?
