Brass is a copper-zinc alloy. What is the mass in grams of a brass cylinder having a length of $1.62 \mathrm{in}$. and a diameter of $0.514 \mathrm{in}$. if the composition of the brass is $67.0 \%$ copper and $33.0 \%$ zinc by mass? The density of copper is $8.92 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}$, and the density of zinc is $7.14 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}$. Assume that the density of the brass varies linearly with composition.
What is the composition of a brass cylinder that is 5.000 cm long, 1.365 cm in diameter and has the mass of 53.212? Here 8.960 g/cm3 is the density of pure copper and 7.140 g/cm3 is the density of pure zinc.
