Answer:
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. This can be gleaned from the third postulate in Dalton's series. Magnesium oxide decomposes into magnesium and oxygen. If 4.03 g of magnesium oxide decomposes to form 2.43 g of magnesium, what mass of oxygen gas is also released in the reaction
The word say magnesium oxide decomposes to magnesium and oxygen
the chemical symbols say
MgO-----------> Mg + O2 (since natural oxygen is diatomic)
the balanced equation says
2MgO-------------->2Mg + O2
4.03 gm----------> 2.43 + ?0 gms
tour high school Algebra I class says
? = 4.03 -2.43 =1.60
your chemical analytcal lab says %mO in MgO = 16/40.3 = 39.7%
your calculator says
39.7/100 X 4.03 = 1.60
all of these prove the law of conservation of mass
Despite its appearance, air has a ‘thickness’ so when the sun is high in the sky the light travels through the air on a very much shorter path than when it is low on the horizon.
Imagine that air water and you are below the surface, the light from an overhead sun will be quite sharp and bright, but if lower in the sky it will have to travel through much more water to reach you, so will look less bright and sharp. It ma not seem the same, but the atmosphere is just like very thin water, and a low lying sun will be drastically reduced in strength, so all you will see is a sun with a shift to the red end of the spectrum as all the actinic part will be filtered away by that thicker atmosphere.
Proteins are made of carbon, hydrogen,oxygen, and nitrogen (CHON). Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA contain carbon,hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus(CHON P). The body also needs trace amounts of other elements such as calcium,potassium, and sulfur for proper functioning of muscles, nerves, etc.
