An alloy contains 64 g of pure gold and 32 g of pure zinc. what is the percentage of zinc in the alloy?

Answer :

The answer of the the percentage of zinc in the alloy is 33.33%.

Mass percent is the mass of the element or solute divided by the mass of the emulsion or solute. The result is multiplied by 100 to give a percent. The formula for the quantum of an element in a emulsion is mass percent = (mass of element in 1 operative  of emulsion / mass of 1 operative of emulsion) *100.

An alloy, metallic substance comprised of two or more elements, as either a compound or a solution. For example: Brass is an alloy of two metals: copper and zinc.

According to question,

Mass of pure Gold = 64g

Mass of pure zinc = 32 g

Now,

Total weight of alloy is = 64 + 32 = 96 gram

32 g of which is zinc

So percentage (%) of zinc in the alloy is 32/96*100 =  33.33 %

Hence, the percentage of zinc in the alloy is 33.33%.
