During the combustion of coal, the carbon in coal reacts with the oxygen in the atmosphere to form carbon dioxide. A, B, and C r

epresent the masses of compounds either used up or formed by the combustion of coal.
A = 12 grams, B = 44 grams, C = 32 grams

Which of the following statements supports the conclusion that combustion of coal follows the law of conservation?
A.The total mass of A and C, which are carbon dioxide and oxygen, is equal to the mass of B, which is carbon.
B.The total mass of A and C, which are carbon and oxygen, is equal to the mass of B, which is carbon dioxide.
C.The total mass of B and C, which are carbon and oxygen, is greater than the mass of A, which is carbon dioxide.
D.The total mass of A and B, which are carbon and oxygen, is greater than the mass of C, which is carbon dioxide.

Answer: option <span>B.The total mass of A and C, which are carbon and oxygen, is equal to the mass of B, which is carbon dioxide.
</span>

Explanation:

1) The combustion of carbon is represented by the chemical equation:

C + O₂ → CO₂

2)  The law of conservation of mass states that the mass of the products is equal to the mass of the reactants.

3)  The reactants are C and O₂, while the product is CO₂.

4) The masses given are: A: 12 g, B: 44 g, and C: 32 g

Then, 12g + 32 g = 44 g, this is A + C = B.

Then, B represents the product, which is CO₂, whose molar mass is 44 g/mol.

Since, the molar mass of C is 12 g/mol, it is A; and since the molar mass of O₂ is 32, it is C.

Therefore, the answer is the option B.

Name the cycloalkanes with molecular formula c6h12 that have a 3-membered ring and two substituents.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

1-ethyl-2-methyl cyclopropane.

Explanation:

  • The structure of the molecule will be as shown in the attached image.
  • The molecular formula of the compound is C₆H₁₂.
  • It has 3 membered ring with 3 C atoms and two substituents one of them with one C atom (methyl) and the other with 2 C atoms (ethyl).
  • The ring consist of 3 C atoms, so its name is cyclo propane.
  • We numbering the atoms of the ring that give the ethyl substituent the low no. (1) and then methyl group take no. (2).
  • <em>Thus, the name of the compound is 1-ethyl-2-methyl cyclopropane.</em>

Heat is being removed from a substance, but its temperature does not change. What is
ololo11 [35]
So its temperature will not rise, since kinetic energy of molecules remains the same. The quantity of heat absorbed or released when a substance changes its physical phase at constant temperature (e g. From solid to liquid at melting point or from liquid to gas at boiling point) is termed as its latent heat.

Choose the FALSE statement.
Mariana [72]

Answer:

C. The half-life of C-14 is about 40,000 years.

Explanation:

The only false statement from the options is that the half-life of C-14 is 40,000yrs.

The half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for half of a radioactive material to decay to half of its original amount. C-14 has an half-life of 5730yrs. This implies that during every 5730yrs, C-14 will reduce to half of its initial amount.

  • All living organisms contain both stable C-12 and the unstable isotope of C-14
  • The lower the C-14 compared to the C-12 ratio in an organism, the older it is.
