All substances taking part in a certain interaction are shown below: Butane is written followed by an addition sign followed by
Oxygen followed by an equal to sign followed by Carbon dioxide followed by an addition sign followed by Water. Just below Butane 29 grams is written and just below Carbon dioxide and Water is a parentheses below which 133 grams is written Which of the following is the correct estimate of the amount of oxygen used in the interaction? Sum of 133 g and 29 g Difference between 133 g and 29 g Twice the sum of 133 g and 29 g Twice the difference between133 g and 29 g
<span>The Law of Conservation of Mass simply states
that the total amount of mass should not change in a chemical reaction that is
isolated (no other objects can enter the reaction). The total mass of the
reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products. Thus, t</span>he correct estimate of
the amount of oxygen used in the interaction is the difference between 133
g and 29 g.

For the formation of nitrogen dioxide, the reactants used are nitrogen monoxide and oxygen gas. 2 moles of nitrogen monoxide gas react with 1 mole of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of nitrogen dioxide gas.
