Answer : The correct option is, 104 grams.

Explanation :

Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

Ca+ZnCO_3\rightarrow CaCO_3+Zn

According to the law of conservation of mass,

Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side

Total mass of Ca+ZnCO_3 = Total mass of CaCO_3+Zn

Mass of Ca + Mass of ZnCO_3 = Mass of CaCO_3 + Mass of Zn

As we are given :

Mass of Ca = 64 g

Mass of ZnCO_3 = 192 g

Mass of CaCO_3 = 152 g

So,

Mass of Ca + Mass of ZnCO_3 = Mass of CaCO_3 + Mass of Zn

64 g + 192 g = 152 g + Mass of Zn

Mass of Zn  = (64 + 192) - 152

Mass of Zn  = 104 g

Therefore, the mass of zinc present in the zinc carbonate was 104 grams.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "False".

Explanation:

It is false that as carbon dioxide enters systemic blood, it causes more oxygen to dissociate from hemoglobin. Once an atom of oxygen binds to hemoglobin, hemoglobin change its shape and makes easier than a second and a third atom of oxygen binds towards it. This change in conformation makes no possible that carbon dioxide can cause that oxygen dissociates from hemoglobin.

Answer:

V2 = 600ml

Explanation:

dilution principle formula

M1V1 = M2V2

C1V1 = C2V2

3 X 20 = 0.1 x V2

60 = 0.1 x V2

V2 = 60/0.1

V2 = 600ml
