The one that does not demonstrates the law of conservation of matter would be the third option: $2NO_2 + H_2O -- > HNO_3 + HNO_2$

<h3>What is law of conservation of matter? </h3>

It is a law that explains that matters are conserved during the course of chemical reactions. They can neither be destroyed nor created.

Thus, the number of moles of the species in a reaction remains the same before and after the reaction.

Thus, an equation that demonstrates the law of conservation of matter will be balanced in terms of the number of moles of species.

The only equation, in this case, is $2NO_2 + H_2O -- > HNO_3 + HNO_2$

There are 3 oxygen species on the reactant while 5 are present on the product side.

Hydrogenation reactions, in which H2 and an "unsaturated" organic compound combine, are used in the food, fuel, and polymer indu

ddd [48]

Answer: The amount of heat released is 56 MJ.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of $C_2H_6$ = 12 kg = 12000 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of $C_2H_6$ = 30 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of }C_2H_6=\frac{12000g}{30g/mol}=400mol$

The chemical reaction for hydrogenation of ethene follows the equation:

$C_2H_4+H_2\rightarrow C_2H_6$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 1 mole of ethane releases 140 kJ of heat.

So, 400 moles of ethane will release = $\frac{140}{1}\times 400=56000kJ$ of heat.

Converting this into Mega joules, using the conversion factor:

1 MJ = 1000 kJ

So, $\Rightarrow 56000kJ\times (\frac{1MJ}{1000kJ})=56MJ$

Hence, the amount of heat released is 56 MJ.

What is the difference between intrusive igneous rocks and extrusive igneous rocks? We just learned this and I still don’t know

Reil [10]

The major visible difference between the two are crystal size, intrusive rocks have a larger crystal/grain texture due to the slow cooling of magma below the earth surface which encourages the growth of larger crystals, while extrusive rocks, because of the rapid cooling at/above the earth's surface does the opposite. Hope I helped
