Chapter 1, Problem 1.99QP
A bank teller is asked to assemble “one-dollar” sets of coins for his clients. Each set is made of three quarters, one nickel, and two dimes. The masses of the coins are: quarter: 5.645 g; nickel: 4.967 g; dime: 2.316 g. What is the maximum number of sets that can be assembled from 33.871 kg of quarters, 10.432 kg of nickels, and 7.990 kg of dimes? What is the total mass (in g) of the assembled sets of coins?

2. The picture in the introduction shows that the mass of a crucible and lid was
determined to be 22.1504 g. The hydrate was placed into the crucible, and now
the crucible with lid and hydrate weighed 24.2901 g. The hydrate in the crucible
was then heated and all water was removed. Once cooled, the crucible with lid
and dried hydrate weighed 23.0063 g.
a) Calculate the mass of the hydrate.
b) Calculated the mass of water lost.
c) Calculate the mass percentage of water in the hydrate.

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_forwardWhen 12.6 g calcium carbonate (the principal component of chalk) is treated with 63.0 mL hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid sold in hardware stores; density = 1.096 g/mL), the calcium carbonate reacts with the acid, goes into solution, and carbon dioxide gas bubbles out of the solution.
