The mass of precious stones is expressed...

The mass of precious stones is expressed in terms of ‘carat’. What is the mass of a ring in grams which contains 0.600 carat diamond and 8.500 g gold given that 1 carat = 3.168 grains and 1 g = 15.4 grains ?

AI Generated Solution

To find the mass of a ring that contains a diamond and gold, we need to convert the mass of the diamond from carats to grams and then add it to the mass of the gold. Here’s how to do it step by step: ### Step 1: Understand the conversion factors We know: - 1 carat = 3.168 grains - 1 gram = 15.4 grains ### Step 2: Calculate the mass of one grain in grams ...

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.
