The mass of precious stones is expressed...

The mass of precious stones is expressed in terms of 'carat'. Given that 1 carat = 3.168 grains and 1 gram = 15.4 grains, calculate the total mass of a ring in grams and kilograms which contains 0.500 carat diamond and 7.00 gram gold.

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the total mass of a ring that contains a 0.500 carat diamond and 7.00 grams of gold. We will convert the carat measurement of the diamond into grams, and then sum it with the mass of the gold to find the total mass in grams and kilograms. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Carats to Grams**: - We know that 1 carat = 3.168 grams. - Therefore, to convert 0.500 carats to grams: \[ ...

What is the molar mass of a gas if 10.0 grams of it occupy 4.48 litres at 273K and 101.3 kPa (1.00 atm)?

A: Mass of 1 gram molecule of H_(2)SO_(4) is 98 gram. R: One gram atom contains N_(A) atoms.

Calculate molarity from mass and volume: A solution is prepared from 22.5 g of glucose (C_(6)H_(12)O_(6)) and enough water for a volume of 250 cm^(3) . Find the molarity of the glucose. Strategy: We first convert mass glucose to moles, because the molarity equals moles of solute (giucose) divided by volume of solution in litres. To calculate moles, we must divide the given mass of glucose by its molar mass. Molar is gram atomic mass (if solute consists of atoms), gram molecular mass (if solute consists of molecules) or gram formula mass (if solute consista of formula units) Gram atomic mass is the mass in grams, numerically equal to the atomic mass expressed in amu. Gram molecular mass is the mass in grams, which is numerically equal to the molecular mass expressed in amu. Gram formula mass is the mass in grams, numerically equal to formula mass expressed in amu.
