How many grams of CO are present in the room if the room's dimensions measure 3.5m x 3.0m x 3.2m?arrow_forwardGaseous ethane (CH,CH,) will react with gaseous oxygen (O2) to produce gaseous carbon dioxide (CO2) and gaseous water (H,O). Suppose 0.601 g of ethane is mixed with 2.9 g of oxygen. Calculate the maximum mass of water that could be produced by the chemical reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. g x10 ?arrow_forward
- In the opening scene of the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones tries to remove a gold idol from a booby-trapped pedestal. He replaces a gold (D = 19.32 g/cm²³) idol of dimensions 5.0 inches by 5.0 inches by 5.0 inches with a bag of sand of approximately double the volume with sand (D = 3.65 g/cm³). Is the bag of sand really equal to the gold idol or will Dr. Jones set off the trap? Explain your answer and include a mathematical explanation.

A 4.034g glass fragment was recovered from a suspect's clothing. When the fragment was placed into a graduated cylinder filled with water, 1.63mL of the water was displaced. Calculate the density of the glass fragment.arrow_forward2. You purchase a rectangular piece of metal that has dimensions 5.0 X 15.0 X 30.0 mm and mass 43.43 g. The seller tells you that the metal is gold. To check this, you compute the average density of the piece. What value do you get? Were you cheated?arrow_forward

Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. 0 0-0 X 2 5 Sarrow_forwardChalcopyrite is among the most common varieties of copper ore. Assuming chalcopyrite is 34.4% copper by mass (34.4 grams copper per 100. grams of ore), how many kilograms of chalcopyrite would be needed to smelt 30.0 kilograms of pure copper?arrow_forwardSuppose you are measuring the mass of a solid sample on a balance using a weigh boat. You record the data in a table. Mass of weigh boat 3.451 g Mass of weigh boat and sample 7.268 g What is the mass of the solid sample (in g)?arrow_forward
- A student weighed their penny (mass = 2.499 g) and followed the same experimental procedure you did in the lab. They found that the penny contained 0.0980 g of copper, or, 3.92%. Estimate the thickness of the copper coating with the following formula. From the US Mint website: the diameter of a penny is 19.05 mm and the thickness is 1.52 mm. The density of copper is 8.96 g/cm3. TIP: your final answer will have the units of cm (think about what to do first.). mass of Cu volume density of Cu Thickness of Cu Coating = area (diameter 2 T T (diameter) (thickness) O 7.39 x 104 cm O 1.65 x 103 cm O 4.22 x 102 cm O 2.80 x 103 cm O 1.89 x 105 cm O impossible to determinearrow_forwardA chardonnay wine is 13.5 percent by mass alcohol.
