A mixture of NaCl and CuCO3 was dissolved in water and the resulting slurry was filtered in to a beaker. The beaker and the filt

er paper were dried and weighed.
Mass of container: 54.558g
Mass of container and mixture: 56.779g
Mass of filter paper: 1.176g
Mass of filter paper and residue: 2.656g
Mass of beaker: 77.575g
Mass of beaker and dried residue: 78.875g

Mass of mixture =
Mass of NaCl =
%NaCl (w/w) =
Mass of CuCO3 =
% (w/w) CuCO3 =

Do the percentages add up to 100% in this example? Why or why not? What do you think happened?

The percentage adds up to 100%.

<h3>Percentages</h3>

Mass of mixture = mass of container+mixture - mass of container = 56.779 - 54.558 = 2.221 g

CuCO3 is insoluble in water. Thus:

Mass of CuCO3 = mass of beaker and residue - mass of beaker = 78.875 - 77.575 = 1.300 g

Mass of NaCl = mass of mixture - mass of CuCO3 = 2.221 - 1.300 = 0.921 g

%NaCl (w/w) = weight of NaCl/weight of mixture = 10.921/2.221 = 41.468%

% (w/w) CuCO3 = weight of CuCO3/weight of mixture = 1.300/2.221 = 58.532%

Addition of percentages = 41.468 + 58.532 = 100%

How many moles are in 50 g of CO2
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

1.1 mol

Explanation:

n=m/M, where n is moles, m is mass, and M is molar mass.

M of CO2 = 12.01+16.00+16.00 = 44.01g/mol

n=50g/44.01g/mol

n = 1.13610543 mol

n ≈ 1.1 mol

Hope that helps

Select the correct answer. Which statement best describes how chemical equations demonstrate conservation of mass? OA The number
timofeeve [1]

Answer: C. The number of atoms of each element is the same on each side of the equation.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter shows that it is not possible for matter to either be created nor for it to be destroyed so the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms in each element on the product side of the equation.

This is why the following equation is incomplete:

H₂ + O₂ ⇒ H₂O

The oxygen atoms are not the same on either side.

Equation will therefor have to be balanced which will make it:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

Notice now that atoms are the same on both sides.
