Both platinum and gold are so-called Noble metals, and can still be found as nuggets in the Earth's crust. The occurrence of gold in alluvial deposits was responsible for several historical gold rushes in Australia, and the Americas.

Sodium, aluminum, and magnesium are FAR more reactive, and while their occurrence in ores and minerals would be far more common than the Noble metals, they would not be found in their elemental state.

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3 and that of platinum is 21.4 g/cm3. What of the following weighs more: A rectangle of gold measuring 2.00 cm x 1.00 cm x 4.00 cm or a rectangle of platinum measuring 0.045 ft x 0.095 ft x 0.065 ft?

To solve this problem, we first need to find the volume of the rectangles and then multiply by their densities to find the mass of each rectangle. Finding voulme of...

Why are neither the alkali metals nor the alkaline-earth metals found uncombined in nature?

Sodium $Na_11^23$ is so reactive that if sodium metal is placed in water it will react vigorously to produce Hydrogen gas and heat often causing an explosion. All of...

What is the average atomic mass of gold if half of the gold found in nature has a mass of 197 amu and half has a mass of 198 amu?

The average can be calculated by: $"Average mass"=sum("isotope mass")xx("percent abundance")$ If half of gold is found in nature with a mass of $197a.m.u.$ therefore its percent abundance is $50%$ and...

Platinum metal is used in jewelry; it is also used in automobile catalytic converters. What is the mass of a cube of platinum 4.40 cm on an edge? The density of platinum is 21.4 g/cm^3?

Volume of this cube $V= a^3$ $V=4.4^3$ $V=85.184 cm^3$ Since (d) is 21.4 g per cubic centimeter Mass will be $M=d*V$ $M=21.4*85.184 = 1822.94 grams = 1.82 kg$

A sample of a substance containing only magnesium and chlorine was tested in the laboratory and was found to be composed of 74.5% chlorine by mass. If the total mass of the sample was 190.2 grams, what was the mass of the magnesium?

In a binary compound, $XY$, if $%X$ is given, then, clearly, $%Y=100-X%$ with respect to mass. So we take that figure and multiply it by the mass of the...

A metal alloy weighing 11 kg and containing 2% platinum is melted and mixed with 6 kg of a different alloy which contains 36% platinum. What percent of the resulting alloy is platinum?

$"% of platinum"$ $=$ $"Total mass of platinum"/"Total mass of alloy"xx100%.$ $(2%xx11*kg+36%xx6*kg)/(11*kg+6*kg)xx100%$ $=(2.38*kg)/(17*kg)xx100%=??%$ The spot price for platinum is currently $£25-24*g^-1$. What is this lump worth?

Which option contains a $2*g$ mass of sodium atoms.... $1.$ $5.24xx10^22*"sodium atoms?"$ $2.$ $6.022xx10^24*"sodium atoms?"$ $3.$ $3.12xx10^23*"sodium atoms?"$ $4.$ $5.24xx10^22*"sodium atoms?"$

We know that $1*mol$ contains $6.022xx10^23$ individual sodium atoms, and has a mass of $22.99*g$. And thus for $1.$ there is a $2*g$ mass of $Na$. For $2.$ there is...

How many grams of gold should a coin of 35% gold be if when combined with a 3 grams pure gold necklace, it forms a metal that is 69 % gold?

Since I'm not sure if you're asking for the mass of the $35%$ gold coin or for the mass of gold it must contain, I'll show you how to find...

A mixture of magnesium carbonate and magnesium oxide of mass $12.46*g$ underwent fierce heating. After heating, there were $8.43*g$ of salt remaining. What were the masses of magnesium carbonate, and magnesium oxide in the original sample?

$MgCO_3(s)+DeltararrMgO(s) + CO_2(g)$ And we would have to heat the magnesium salt VERY fiercely to get complete decarboxylation. $"Moles of carbon dioxide LOST"$ $=$ $(4.40*g)/(44.01*g*mol^-1)$ $=0.010*mol$ And therefore in...

The balanced equation shows the reaction between aluminium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid to form aluminium chloride and water: Al(OH)3 + 3HCl = AlCl3 + 3H2O. 1 mole of aluminium chloride was formed, what mass of aluminium hydroxide was formed?

I'll assume you mean what mass of aluminum hydroxide reacted. We can use the coefficients of the equation to determine the number of moles of $"Al(OH)"_3$ that react, knowing that...
