There chemical reactions that can realise or absorb gas to the atmosphere. This means it is harder or impossible to measure it with normal weighing devices and normal taring equipment. As a principal in chemical reactions we have conservation of mass.
I have done this question before and even though you didn’t provide the options. I think the correct option is elements
817.567 mm hg the answer for number 2
Answer:
Identify the "given" information and what the problem is asking you to "find."
Given : Cl2O7
Find: % Composition (% Cl and %O)
List other known quantities.
Mass of Cl in 1 mol Cl2O7 , 2 Cl : 2 x 35.45 g = 70.90 g
Mass of O in 1 mol Cl2O7 , 7 O: 7 x 16.00 g = 112.00 g
Molar mass of Cl2O7 = 182.90 g/mol
