Given:
Mixture of vitamin water = 75% pure water & 25% concentrated vitamin drink.
To find:
Quantity of water to be added to 16 gallons of concentrated vitamin drink to prepare a tank of vitamin water.
Solution:
Let total amount of mixture be x.
25% of x = 16 gallons (from given information)
When 25% of x is 16 gallons, the remaining 75% of x will be calculated as below:
(16/25)*75 = 48
Answer: 75% of x = 48 gallons. This means 48 gallons pure water is required to be added to mixture to prepare a tank of vitamin water.
Answer:
Yes, Mass is conserved.
Explanation:
Every chemical reactions obey the law of conservation of mass. The law of conservation of mass states that in chemical reactions, mass is always constant.
Equation:
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
From the equation above, one can observe that the reaction started using 2 atoms of Na and it produced 2 atoms of the same element in NaCl. A molecule of Cl produced 2 atoms of Cl in the NaCl
Design a simple experiment to support your answer:
Aim: To demonstrate the law of conservation of mass
One Na atom weighs 23g
Two Na atom will weigh 2 x 23 = 46g
1 atom of Cl is 35.5g
1 molecule of Cl containing two atoms of Cl will weigh 2 x 35.5 = 71g
Total mass of reactants = mass of 2Na + 1Cl₂ = (46 + 71)g = 117g
On the product side, Mass of 1 NaCl = 23+ 35.5 = 58.5g
Two moles of NaCl will give 2 x 58.5g = 117g
Since the mass on both side is the same, one can say mass is conserved.
I don’t see any equal signs to make it an equation. Am I missing something?
