To obey the Law of Conservation of Mass, the sum of all individual elements of a compound is equal to the mass of the compound. So, if HCN has a mass of 7.83 grams, then

7.83 g = mass of H + mass of C + mass of N

We know the masses of H and N to be 0.290 g and 4.06 g, respectively. Hence, we can find for the mass of C:

7.83 = 0.29 + mass of C + 4.06
mass of C = 3.48 g

As an extension to the Law of Conservation of Mass, there is also a Law of Definite Proportions. According to Dalton's atomic theory, a compound is formed from a fixed ratio of its individual elements. From our previous calculations, we know that the mass ratio of H to C to N is 0.29 g: 3.48 g:4.06 grams. The ratio could also be expressed in percentages. Let's find the mass percentage of Carbon in HCN to be used later:

mass % of Carbon = (3.48 g/7.83 g)*100
mass % of Carbon = 44.44%

So, if you collect a different mass of HCN, say 3.37 g, the corresponding mass of Carbon is equal to:

Mass of Carbon = (3.37)(44.44%)
Mass of Carbon = 1.498 g

A green rat snake that lives in the grass and a brown rat snake that lives in the desert is a form of what ?
liberstina [14]

A green rat snake that lives in the grass and a brown rat snake that lives in the desert is a form of geographically separated species.

Explanation:

The habitats of the green rat snake  and brown rat snake shows that they are geographically separated species.

The two rat snakes are different species because of their distinct habitat and morphology.

When two species get separated by habitat their breeding method changes either by morphology or breeding pattern.

Such species do not produce viable offspring.

Thus a green rat snake and a brown rat snake have very different habitats they are now two different species.

Such species are said to be reproductively isolated species. Two species having genetic divergence undergo natural selection to adapt to the environment.

Answer:

the proton and the neutron

Explanation:

mass of The proton is approximately  1.6726 × 10^-27 Kg

mass of the electron  is approximately 9.109 × 10^-31 Kg

mass of the neutron  is approximately 1.6749 × 10^-27 Kg

Here we see that mass of proton and neutron is approximately similar.

_____________________________________________

Lets see what is  the mass of these particle IN atm unit

mass of these particles can also be described in form of amu(atomic mass unit)

1 atm is the mass defined as 1/12 th of mass of the carbon-12(c-12) atom.

In terms of unit atm

mass of proton = 1 amu

mass of electron = 5.45 × 10−4 amu

mass of neutron = 1 amu

hence we can say that mass of proton = mass of neutron.

mass of atom is sum of mass of all the neutron and proton in the atom.

Hence, mass of neturon and atom cannot be equal.

This makes option four the neutron and the atom , the wrong choice.

correct answer is the proton and the neutron

therefore, An atom contains one proton , one electron and one neutron then, mass of proton is similar in mass of neutron.

How much of a 0.250 M lithium hydroxide is required to neutralize 20.0 mL of 0.345M chlorous acid?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

27.6mL of LiOH 0.250M

Explanation:

The reaction of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) with chlorous acid (HClO₂) is:

LiOH + HClO₂ → LiClO₂ + H₂O

<em>That means, 1 mole of hydroxide reacts per mole of acid</em>

Moles of  20.0 mL = 0.0200L of 0.345M chlorous acid are:

0.0200L ₓ (0.345mol / L) = <em>6.90x10⁻³ moles of HClO₂</em>

To neutralize this acid, you need to add the same number of moles of LiOH, that is 6.90x10⁻³ moles. As the LiOH contains 0.250 moles / L:

6.90x10⁻³ moles ₓ (1L / 0.250mol) = 0.0276L of LiOH =

<h3>27.6mL of LiOH 0.250M</h3>
