Question
Chapter PSS, Problem 50E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The total mass of a brass cylinder and bronze cylinder is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
During the addition or subtraction of measurements, the answer is found to be limited by the value with the greatest uncertainty that is the answer by the decimal place is limited. The final unit in addition and subtraction remains the same as the unit in each single data.

If a cube of gold has a length of 2.50 cm, what is the mass of the gold sample? Convert 19.3 g cm-3 to units of mg L-1.
Use unit analysis to show how to calculate the mass of 17.2 mL of gold. (The density of gold is 19.28 g/mL.)
From 1962 until 1981 pennies were made from 95% copper and 5% zinc and had a mass of 3.1 g. Starting in 1982, pennies have been made from 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper and have a mass of 2.5 g. Suppose you have a sample of pennies that consists of 23.8% pre-1982 pennies. Determine the average mass of a penny in this sample.
