Answer:

83.6 g  

Explanation:

The limiting reactant is carbon and oxygen is in excess.

C + O₂ ⟶ CO₂

Data:

                  Mass of C = 22.8 g

                 Mass of O₂ = 78.0 g

Mass of unreacted O₂ =  17.2 g

Calculations:

          Mass of O₂ reacted = 78.0 g  -  17.2 g = 60.8 g

Mass of reactants (C + O₂) = 22.8 g + 60.8 g = 83.6 g

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of the product (CO₂) equals the sum of the masses of the reactants.

The mass of CO₂ is 83.6 g.

How many grams of mercury would be contained in 15 compact fluorescent light bulbs?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Grams of mercury= 0.06 g of Hg

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

A compact fluorescent light bulb contains 4 mg of mercury. How many grams of mercury would be contained in 15 compact fluorescent light bulbs?

Explanation:

Since one fluorescent light bulb contains 4 mg of mercury,

15 such bulbs will contain 15 * 4 mg of mercury = 60 mg

1 mg = 0.001 g

Therefore, 60 mg = 0.001 g * 60 = 0.06 g of mercury.

Compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) are tubes containing mercury and noble gases. When electricity is passed through the bulb, electron-streams flow from a tungsten-coated coil. They collide with mercury atoms, exciting their electrons and creating flashes of ultraviolet light. A phosphor coating on the inside of the tube absorbs this UV light flashes and re-emits it as visible light. The amount of mercury in a fluorescent lamp varies from 3 to 46 mg, depending on lamp size and age.

Which statement is true for an open system?
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Before we get into the first law of thermodynamics we need to understand the relation between heat and work and the concept of internal energy. Just like mass, energy is always conserved i.e. it can neither be created nor destroyed but it can be transformed from one form to another. Internal energy is a thermodynamic property of the system that refers to the energy associated with the molecules of the system which includes kinetic energy and potential energy.

Whenever a system goes through any change due to interaction of heat, work and internal energy, it is followed by numerous energy transfer and conversions. However, during these transfers, there is no net change in the total energy.

Similarly, if we look at the first law of thermodynamics it affirms that heat is a form of energy. What it means is that the thermodynamic processes are governed by the principle of conservation of energy. The first law of thermodynamics is also sometimes referred to as the Law of Conservation of Energy
