Does the law of conservation of mass apply to physical changes or just chemical changes?

A 254.5 g sample of a white solid is known to be a mixture of KNO3, BaCl2, and NaCl. When 116.5 g of this mixture is dissolved i

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Mass of KNO3 in the original mix is 146.954 g

Explanation:

mass of $KNO_3$ in original 254.5 mixture.

moles of $BaSO_4 = \frac{mass}{Molecular\ Weight}$

moles of $BaSO_4 = \frac{68.3}{233.38}$

= 0.2926 mol of BaSO4

Therefore,

0.2926 mol of BaCl2,

mass of $BaCl_2 = mol\times molecular weight$

$= 0.2926\times 208.23$

= 60.92 g

the AgCl moles $= \frac{mass}{Molecular\ Weight}$

$= \frac{199.1}{143.32}$

= 1.3891 mol of AgCl

note that, the Cl- derive from both, $BACl_2 and NaCl$

so

mole of Cl- f NaCl $= (1.3891) - (0.2926\times 2) = 0.8039$ mol of Cl-

mol of NaCl = 0.8039 moles

$mass = mol\times Molecular\ Weight = 0.8039 \times 58 = 46.626\ g \ of \ NaCl$

then

KNO3 mass = 254.5 - 60.92-46.626 = 146.954 g of KNO_3

Mass of KNO3 in the original mix is 146.954 g

Jupiters atmosphere is mostly made of ___

erastovalidia [21]

Jupiter's atmosphere is composed predominantly of hydrogen and helium, but if you have to select any one option then we can look at the percentage of existence of these elements that would be
<span>90 percent hydrogen.
remaining 10 percent is helium
so choose Hydrogen.</span>

Classify the following as either solutions or colloids. If a colloid, name the type of colloid and identify both the dispersed a

aev [14]

Answer:

a. glucose in water( solution)

b. smoke in air (colloids)

c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)

d. milk( colloids)

Explanation:

A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).

Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.

In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.

For example:

--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.

--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.
