Which of the following is true regarding the law of conservation of mass

Chemistry
1 answer:
Luda [366]3 years ago
3 0
These are the answer options of this question and the comments about their validity:

<span>A) It dictates that the number of molecules on each side of a chemical equation must be the same.

False: the number of molecules can change. Take this simple reaction for example:

2H2(g) +  O2 -> 2H2O

You start with 3 molecules, 2 molecules of H2 and 1 molecule of O2, and end with 2 molecules of water. Then the number of molecules of each side is different.



B) It dictates that the number of atoms of each element must be the same on both sides of a chemical equation.

TRUE: in a chemical reaction the atoms remain being the same at start and at the end of the process. Given that each atom has a characteristic mass, their conservation implies the law of conservation mass.


C) It states that the mass of the reactants must remain constant in order for a chemical reaction to proceed.

FALSE. The mass of the reactants changes during a chemical reaction, while they transform into the products.

D) It does not apply to chemical reactions.

FALSE: It is an important law used in the calculus related with chemical reactions.

Which of the following atoms has the greatest atomic radius? Oxygen (o) fluorine (F) Chlorine (CL) Carbon (C)
Andrei [34K]

Periodic Trend:

The Atomic radius of atoms generally decreases from left to right across a period

Group Trend:

The atomic radius of atoms generally increases from top to bottom within a group. As atomic number increases down a group, there is a increase in the positive nuclear charge, however the co-occurring increase in the number of orbitals wins out, increasing the atomic radius down a group in the periodic table

Answer :

The Atom with the greatest atomic radius is chlorine. Fluorine can be ruled out because it is in the same period as oxygen and further to the right down the period. Chlorine has the largest atomic size because it is farthest down the group of any of the above elements listed.

Marianna [84]

Answer: 0.082 atm L k^-1 mole^-1

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of gas (V) = 62.0 L

Temperature of gas (T) = 100°C

Convert 100°C to Kelvin by adding 273

(100°C + 273 = 373K)

Pressure of gas (P) = 250 kPa

[Convert pressure in kilopascal to atmospheres

101.325 kPa = 1 atm

250 kPa = 250/101.325 = 2.467 atm]

Number of moles (n) = 5.00 moles

Gas constant (R) = ?

To get the gas constant, apply the formula for ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

2.467 atm x 62.0L = 5.00 moles x R x 373K

152.954 atm•L = 1865 K•mole x R

To get the value of R, divide both sides by 1865 K•mole

152.954 atm•L / 1865 K•mole = 1865 K•mole•R / 1865 K•mole

0.082 atm•L•K^-1•mole^-1 = R

Thus, the value of gas constant is 0.082 atm L k^-1 mole^-1
