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.
Thank you to whoever tries to answer this and I will give brainliest if your answer is right!

Edit: Nevermind! I did more research and for whoever is also trying to find the answer to this question the correct one is B.!

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.

The effectiveness of nitrogen fertilizers depends on both their ability to deliver nitrogen to plants and the amount of nitrogen
densk [106]

Answer:

Ammonia > Urea > Ammonium nitrate > Ammonium sulphate

Explanation:

Percentage by mass of nitrogen in NH3:

Molar mass of NH3= 17 g/mol

Hence % by mass = 14/17 × 100 = 82.35%

% by mass of NH4NO3

Molar mass of NH4NO3 = 80.043 g/mol

Hence; 28/80.043 × 100 = 34.98%

% by mass of (NH4)2SO4;

Molar mass of (NH4)2SO4= 132.14 g/mol

Hence; 28/132.14 × 100 = 21.19%

% by mass of CH4N2O

Molar mass of urea = 60.0553 g/mol

Hence 28/60.0553 × 100 = 46.62%

The energy and state changes that occur when freezing rain falls and solidfies on a wire fence
Alex787 [66]

Freezing rain is the term given to the precipitation of the rain sustained at temperatures below freezing by the ambient air mass, which results in freezing on encountering with the surfaces. Freezing rain is formed completely of liquid droplets, unlike sleet, ice pellets, or hail.  

The freezing rain falls and solidifies on a wire fence as the rain is changing from a liquid to a solid state by withdrawing thermal energy, ultimately resulting in freezing.

Match each item with the correct statement below.
V125BC [204]

1. LDFs

2. Intermolecular Forces

3. Intramolecular Forces

4. Linear

5. Tetrahedral

Edit: I'm new to this site and idk how to use it properly. I'm not sure about 2 and 3 currently because these forces are between molecules as well so INTERmolecular would be used twice (?)
