Answer:
Mass is lost due to the conversion of mass to energy
Explanation:
The question is not complete, the complete question is given as:
⇒ 
total mass equals 236.053 u total mass equals 235.868 u
Which statement explains the energy term in this reaction? (1) Mass is gained due to the conversion of mass to energy. (2) Mass is gained due to the conversion of energy to mass. (3) Mass is lost due to the conversion of mass to energy. (4) Mass is lost due to the conversion of energy to mass.
Answer: From Einstein’s equation E = mc², when a radioisotope element undergoes fission or fusion in a nuclear reaction, it loses a tiny amount of mass.This mass lost is converted to energy.
The law of conservation of energy holds for this type of reaction (i.e the sum of mass and energy is remains the same in a nuclear reaction). Mass changes to energy, but the total amount of mass and energy combined remains the same before and after a nuclear reaction.
From the reaction above, the total decrease in mass = 236.053 - 235.868 = 0.185 u
Answer:
0.6258 g
Explanation:
To determine the number grams of aluminum in the above reaction;
- determine the number of moles of HCl
- determine the mole ratio,
- use the mole ratio to calculate the number of moles of aluminum.
- use RFM of Aluminum to determine the grams required.
<u>Moles </u><u>of </u><u>HCl</u>
35 mL of 2.0 M HCl
2 moles of HCl is contained in 1000 mL
x moles of HCl is contained in 35 mL
We have 0.07 moles of HCl.
<u>Mole </u><u>ratio</u>
6HCl(aq) + 2Al(s) --> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2(g)
Hence mole ratio = 6 : 2 (HCl : Al
- but moles of HCl is 0.07, therefore the moles of Al;
Therefore we have 0.0233333 moles of aluminum.
<u>Grams of </u><u>Aluminum</u>
We use the formula;
The RFM (Relative formula mass) of aluminum is 26.982g/mol.
Substitute values into the formula;
The number of grams of aluminum required to react with HCl is 0.6258 g.
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's, the answer can be easily deduced.
Amount of gasoline required by Harry's car to travel 25 miles = 1 gallon
Then
amount of gasoline required
by Harry's car to travel 15000 miles = 15000/25
= 600 gallons
So
Amount of CO2 released by burning 1 gallon of gasoline = 20 pounds
Then
Amount of CO2 released
by burning 600 gallon of gasoline = 600 * 20
= 12000 pounds
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the amount of CO2 that will be added by Harry's car to the atmosphere is 12000 pounds.
