Pure platinum is too soft to be used in jewelry because it scratches easily. To increase the hardness so that it can be used in jewelry, platinum is combined with other metals to form an alloy. To determine the amount of platinum in an alloy, a 7.637 g sample of an alloy containing only platinum and cobalt is reacted with excess nitric acid to form 1.31 g of cobalt(II) nitrate. Calculate the mass percent of platinum in the alloy.

Imagine that you’re getting ready to move to a new city. when people move, they are influenced by push factors and pull factors, and you have many reasons for your move. which of the following factors is an example of a pull factor? a. wanting to move because you’ve found a great new school somewhere new b. needing to move because there are not enough resources in your old hometown c. being forced to move because your old home is gone d. having to move because there are no jobs in your current hometown

Identify and describe the three ways that mutations affect organisms.

Since the gas in your graduated cylinder is a mixture of butane and water vapor, you must determine the partial pressure of the butane, pbutane, alone. to do this, consult a reference and record the partial pressure of the water vapor, pwater, at the temperature you recorded. use the following formula to compute the partial pressure of the butane. pbutane = atmosphere - pwater use the following combined gas law formula and compute the volume that the butane sample will occupy at stp. (hint: convert both temperatures to kelvin.) pbutane x voriginal = pstandard x vfinal troom tstandard use the following ratio and proportion formula to determine the mass of butane needed to occupy a volume of 22.4 l at stp. grams of butane you used “x” grams of butane ml of butane corrected to stp = 22,400 ml compute the theoretical molar mass of butane based on its formula and the atomic masses on the periodic table. compare your experimental results from #3 to the theoretical value of #4, computing a percent error of your findings using this formula: % error = measured value - accepted value x 100 accepted value use the following ratio and proportion formula to determine the mass of butane needed to occupy a volume of 22.4 l at stp. need asap
