</span>Now convert the masses in <span>moles : </span> C = 12.0 u H = 1.0 u O = 16.0 u
C = 132 / 12.0 => 11 moles
H = 22 / 1.0 => 22 moles
O = 176 / 16.0 => 11 moles
Using the values obtained the lowest proportion in mols of elements present, simply divide the values found for the least of them<span>: </span> C = 11 / 11 => 1
For short duration: ... When excess of carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water then the white precipitate calcium carbonate formed first dissolves due to the formation of a soluble salt calcium hydrogen carbonate (Ca(HCO3)2, and the Solution becomes clear again
Solid particles have the least amount of energy, and gas particles have the greatest amount of energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles. A change in phase may occur when the energy of the particles is changed. There are spaces between particles of matter.
