The percent composition of each element can be calculated as follows:
% composition = (mass of element / total mass) * 100
The total mass of the quarter is given to be 5.670 grams
Mass of Cu = 5.198 grams
Mass of Ni = 0.472 grams
Substitute in the above equation to get the mass percentage of each element as follows:
% of Cu = (5.198/5.670) * 100 = 91.675%
% of Ni = (0.472/5.670) * 100 = 8.325%
gold is usually found in pure form because it is not reacting with other chemicals naturally.
Carbon Dioxide is formed when two oxygen atoms chemically combine with a carbon atom. The term that will best describe carbon dioxide is a compound. That will make the correct answer D.
Answer: Hydrogen and Helium
Explanation: Hydrogen is made from from one proton and one electron, making them one of the simplest forms of elements in the universe. Combining hydrogen atoms creates helium, the second most common element in the Universe.
