Explain durable electrical connections between copper wires

Reference no: EM13553819

Solder is used in the electronics industry because it has a low melting point and can make durable electrical connections between copper wires. Electronic solder is an alloy of tin and lead. Recently someone brought to the Great Basin Chemical Lab a sample of solder and asked for an analysis. Using the same techniques from Lab #1 in which we determined the volumetric composition of a solder alloy, determine the composition of this solder alloy. Answer in % lead (by mass). Not by volume.

Here is the data:

Density of pure lead: 11.4 g/cm^3

Density of pure tin: 7.31 g/cm^3

Density of solder sample: 10.35 g/cm^3

Remember find the % lead by MASS.
