To solve for the percent water in the sample, we follow the written formula below.

Percentage Water = (Wi - Wf)/Wi*100

Where: Wi = initial weight
             Wf = final weight

Given:

Wi = 1.972 g
Wf = 1.641 g

Required: Percentage Water in the Sample

Solution:

Percentage Water = (Wi - Wf)/Wi*100
Percentage Water = (1.972-1.641)/1.972*100
Percentage Water = 16.8%

<em>ANSWER: 16.8%</em>

Which statement best describes how photosynthesis follows the law of conservation of mass?
leva [86]

Answer:

O The number of oxygen atoms in the reactants used by this process equals the total number of oxygen atoms in the products.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes how photosynthesis follows the law of conservation of mass is that the number of oxygen atoms in the reactants used by this process is equal to the total number of oxygen atoms in the products.

 The equation of photosynthesis reaction is given as:

        6CO₂    +     6H₂O    →    C₆ H₁₂ O₆ +  6O₂

According to the law of conservation of mass, matter is neither created nor destroyed during the course of a chemical reaction.

By the virtue of this, the number of oxygen atom on both sides of the expression must be the same. Also, the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms must also be the same.

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Option A= copper

Explanation:

According  to specific heat capacity of substances, copper will reach to the our body temperature first.

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m × c × ΔT

specific heat capacity of copper = 0.385 J/g. °C

specific heat capacity of aluminium = 0.902 J/g. °C

so copper will absorb the heat very quickly and raise the temperature in very less time as compare to aluminium.
