A compound of a transition metal and iodine is 56.7% metal by mass. How many grams of the metal can be obtained from 630 g of this compound?

357 g of the transition metal are present in 630 grams of the compound of the transition metal and iodine

Explanation:

In any sample of the compound, the percentage by mass of the transition metal is 56.7%. This means that for a 100 g sample of the compound, 56.7 g is the metal while the remaining mass, 43.3 g is iodine.

Given mass of sample compound = 630 g

Calculating the mass of iodine present involves multiplying the percentage by mass composition of the metal by the mass of the given sample;

56.7 % = 56.7/100 = 0.567

Mass of transition metal = 0.567 * 630 = 357.21 g

Therefore, the mass of the transition metal  present in 630 g of the compound is approximately 357 g

i think that the answer is c

hey there!

mass = 6.75 g

volume =   9 cm³

therefore:

d = mass / volume

d   = 6.75 / 9

d = 0.7 g/cm³

answer b
