Question

FULL sou EN | | PRINTER VERM ON BACK Chapter 11, Problem 003 Accomplished silver workers in India can pound silver into incredibly thin sheets, as thin as 3.00 x 10 7 m (about one hundredth of the thickness of a sheet of paper) Find the area of such a sheet that can be formed from 3.20 kg of silver. Number the tolerance is +/-6% Click if you would like to Show Work for this question: Oen Show Work Units SHOW HINT By accessing this Question Assistance, you will learn while you earn points based on the Point Potential Pollicy set by your instructor.

Explanation / Answer

Total mass of silver = density of silver *volume of the silver sheet

                               = density of silver * ( thickness of sheet * area of sheet )

Thus, area of sheet = mass of silver / (density of silver * thickness of sheet )

density of silver = 10490 kg/m3

area of sheet = 3.20 / ( 10490 * 3.00 * 10-7 )

                      = 1016.84 m2
