Explanation / Answer

Rolls of aluminum foil are 301 mm wide and 0.017 mm thick. What maximum length of aluminum foil can be made from 0.94 kg of aluminum?( d(aluminum)=2.70 g/cm3) Express your answer using two significant figures.

Density = mass / volume

volume = mass/density


volume = length x width x height

here density = 2.70 g/cm3

width = 301 mm = 30.1 cm

thick = 0.017 mm= 0.0017 cm

length = ?

first calculate the volume = mass/density

= 0.94 *10^3 g/ 2.70 g/cm^3

= 348.15 cm^3

length = volume / width x height

=348.15 cm^3 / 30.1 cm *0.0017 cm

= 6803.7 cm

= 68.04 m

2. Lead metal can be extracted from a mineral called galena, which contains 86.6% lead by mass. A particular ore contains 68.5%galena by mass.If the lead can be extracted with 92.5% efficiency, what mass of ore is required to make a lead sphere with a 3.00 cm radius?

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Density of Lead is 11.34 grans / cm^3

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

Volume = 4/3 pi r ^3

= (4/3) * pi * (3.00 cm)^3 * [ 11.34 gm / cm^3 ] * [ 100/86.6 ]*[ 100 / 68.5] * [ 100 / 92.5]

here pi = 3.14

= 2336.12 g

=2.34 kg

3. Calculate the mass, in kg, of each sample. 1.93×1027 nickel atoms.

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

1.93×1027 nickel atoms.

Molar mass of Ni = 58.69 g/ mol

First calculate the number of moles

= 1.93*10^27 atoms * 1 mole/ 6.023*10^23atoms

= 3097.91 moles

Amount of 3097.91 moles Ni

3097.91 moles *58.69 g/ mol

=181816.5 g

= 181.82 kg

4. What is the mass, in grams, of each of the following? 43.9 mol Xe

Express your answer using three significant figures.

Molar mass of Xe = 131.293 g/ mol

the mass, in grams, 43.9 mol Xe = 131.293 g/ mol * 43.9 mol Xe

= 5763.8 g
