Carboplatin (c6h12n2o4pt) is a platinum-containing compound that is used to treat certain forms of cancer. this compound contains 52.5% platinum. if the price for platinum is $1047/ troy ounce, what is the cost of the platinum in 2.00 g of this compound? a troy ounce is equal to 480 grains, and one grain is equal to 64.8 mg.

The answer to your question is:  $ 35.6

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂N₂O₄Pt

Platinum = 52.5 %

Price = $1047 / troy ounce

cost of platinum = ? of 2 g

1 troy ounce = 480 grains

1 grain = 64.8 mg

Process

Get 52.5 % of 2 g

                               2 g  100 %

                               x      52.5%

                              x = (52.5 x 2) / 100

                              x = 1.05 g

                               1 g 1000 mg

                               1.05 g   x

                               x = 1050 mg of Pt

                               1 grain 64.8 mg

                              x              1050 mg

                              x = 16.2 grains

                              480 grains 1 troy ounce

                              16.2 grains   x

                               x = (16.2 x 1) / 480

                                x = 0.034 troy ounce

                              $ 1047  1 troy ounce

                                x          0.034

                                x = (0,034 x 1047) / 1

                                x = $ 35.6

it would be b. 6co2 + 6h2o --> c6h12o6 + 6o2
