William Safire: Abolish the Penny William Safire writes a fine argumentative piece on why America no longer has any need for a bothersome coin of copper that “costs more in employee-hours‚” than it is actually worth. Safire uses compelling evidence and real life scenarios to convince his audience that we need to rid our lives of this‚ “outdated‚ almost worthless‚ bothersome and wasteful penny.” If the reader is able to read between the lines and use some analytical processes‚ they will come to

experimental % of copper (Cu) in a post 1982 cent? In this lab‚ we will determine the % composition of a modern (post-1982) penny by using a strong acid called nitric acid (HNO3)‚ to react and dissolve the zinc core‚ leaving only the copper coating. Once only copper remains‚ we will then compare its’ absorbency to the other five post-1982 penny Cu concentrations made in this lab. INTRODUCTION: Before 1982 the US penny was made of pure copper. Because of the high cost of copper‚ the US government

Pennies were the first coin minted in the U.S ‚the first U.S penny is 223 years old. In recent years‚ there has been a heated debate about money in the United States. Surprisingly‚ it is about the pros and cons of producing and using pennies. In my opinion the penny should no longer be used and produced in America today.

Identification of a Copper Compound by Percent Mass Unknown Compound: #9 Abstract: The objective of this experiment was to identify the unknown pure copper salt compound of #9. To do this‚ the mass of copper in the unknown was calculated and then divided by the mass of the whole compound to get the percent copper. The molecular weight was also calculated by dividing mass of copper compound used by moles of compound in unknown sample. The percent copper averaged out to 31.6% while the molecular

writer’s grandparents feel that a penny is worth bending over and picking it off of the ground every time they come across one. Benjamin Franklin once said‚ “A penny saved is a penny earned” (BrainyQuote 2016). If you pick up every penny that you find‚ they eventually will add up. There used to be candy stores that had penny candy but nowadays‚ there is nothing that actually costs a penny. Many people look down at the ground‚ see a penny and leave it there. For them‚ the penny is not worth any effort to

LET’S START WITH COPPER CHEMISTRY REPORT 2012 INTRODUCTION: The law of conservation of mass means that the atoms of an object cannot be created or destroyed‚ but can be moved around and be changed into different particles. This law says that when a chemical reaction makes two different atoms into a new product‚ the mass will be the same. Knowing this the mass of the copper should be the same at the beginning and at the end of the experiment. In this investigation we will see
