Answer:

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that "mass in a system remains constant and that the mass of the product is remains the same as that of the reactants".

Law of conservation of energy states that "energy is neither created nor destroyed in the course of chemical or physical change but can be transformed from one form to another".

 Let us properly write the equation:

               CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

For the conservation of mass:

  C has 1mole on both sides

   H has 4mole on both sides

   O has 4 mole on both sides

For energy, during combustion process, the methane CH₄ burns to liberate heat energy. This is an energy conversion process in which chemical energy in methane releases heat energy.

A children's liquid cold medicine has a specific gravity of 1.23. If a child is to take 1.5 tsp in a dose, what is the mass (in
julia-pushkina [17]

Assume 1 tsp is approximately can hold 5 mL liquid.

Given the dose of medicine = 1.5 tsp

Converting 1.5 tsp to mL:

1.5 tsp * \frac{5 mL}{1 tsp} = 7.5 mL

Given the specific gravity of the medicine = 1.23

That means density of the medicine with respect to water will be 1.23

As the density of water is 1 g/mL

We can take density of the medicine to be 1.23 g/mL

Calculating the mass of medicine in grams:

7.5 mL * \frac{1.23 g}{mL} =9.225 g

9.225 g medicine is present in one dose.
