A scientist measures the mass of a metal to be 682 grams. There are 1000 grams in a kilogram and a kilogram is equal to about 2. 2 pounds. What is the mass of the metal in pounds?.

Respuesta :

The mass of metal in the compound is 1.504 pounds.

What do you understand by metals?

A metal is a substance that, when newly prepared, polished, or fractured, exhibits a lustrous appearance and fairly good electrical and thermal conductivity. Metals are often malleable and ductile (can be formed into wires) (they can be hammered into thin sheets). The metallic link formed by the atoms or molecules of the metal gives rise to these characteristics.

An alloy, like stainless steel, a chemical element, like iron, or a molecular molecule, like polymeric sulfur nitride, are all examples of metals.

Given that;

A scientist measures the mass of a metal to be 682 grams

1000 grams =  1Kg

1kg = 2.2 pounds

hence ;

682 grams will be equal to 0.682 kilograms.

and 0.682 kilograms = 1.504 Pounds

so,

the mass of metal in the compound is 1.504 pounds.
