The correct answer is exactly 750 g.

Since the mass of board is 750 g, the mass of the pile of sawdust after the whole board is ground down is 750 g.

This is according to the Law of conservation of mass. According to this law, matter can neither be created nor destroyed by any physical transformations or chemical reactions. In any chemical reaction the mass of the products is equal to the mass of the reactants.

Here the board undergoes a physical transformations from being a whole board to a pile of sawdust. Thus according to the Law of conservation of mass, the mass of the whole board will be equal to the mass of a pile of sawdust.

Answer:

The answer to your question is 64.02 g of H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Mass of magnesium sulfate hepta hydrated = 125 g

Mass of water = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of the salt and the molar mass of water

molar mass of MgSO₄ 7H₂O = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112 = 246 g

mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18 g

2.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of water in the epsom salt

246 g MgSO₄ 7H₂O------------------------- 126 g of H₂O

125 g ------------------------- x

x = (125 x 126)/246

x = 15750/246

x = 64.02 g of H₂O

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

e. None of these.

Explanation:

Hey there!

In this case, since the Henry's law is defined in terms of pressure, henry's constant and pressure, as shown below:

$C=K_H*P$

Whereas C is the concentration, KH the Henry's constant and P the pressure, we infer that the concentration of a gas solution is directly proportional to the pressure, which is not the group choices, therefore, the answer is e. None of these.

Best regards!
