Answer:
detail is given below.
Explanation:
This law was given by French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
For example:
In given photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
The given equation is balanced chemical equation of photosynthesis. There are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.
If equation is not balanced,
CO₂ + H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
It can not follow the law of conservation of mass because mass is not equal on both side of equation.
Whenever electrons are shared or transferred between atoms there is a chemical reaction.
The electrons that are being transferred between atoms (two or more) create new bonds, which enable the production of a new substance. This process is then known as a chemical reaction.
Answer: the percent composition of carbon in heptane is 83.9%
Explanation:
<u>1) Atomic masses of the atoms:</u>
<u>2) Molar mass of heptane:</u>
- C₇H₁₆: 7 × 12.01 g/mol + 16×1.008 g/mol = 100.2 g/mol
<u>3) Mass of carbon in one mole of heptane:</u>
- C₇: 7 × 12.01 g/mol = 84.07 g/mol
<u>3) Percent composition of carbon:</u>
- % = (mass in grams of C) / (mass in grams of C₇H₁₆) × 100 =
= (84.07 g/ 100.2 g) × 100 = 83.9% ← answer
Answer:
Curd, lemon juice, orange juice and vinegar taste sour. These substances taste sour because they contain acids. The chemical nature of such substances is acidic. The word acid comes from the Latin word acere which means sour.
