An example of a scientific law is the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter is neither created nor destroyed in

a chemical reaction.
Based on what you know about scientific laws in general, classify the following statements regarding the law of conservation of mass as true or false.
A) It was developed from past observations
B) It is subject to experimentation and revision.
C) It explains why mass is conserved.
D) It predicts future observations

Answer:A) It was developed from past observations- true

It is subject to experimentation and revision.- false

It explains why mass is conserved- false

It predicts future observations-true

Explanation:

Before a hypothesis is proclaimed to be a law in science, numerous observation must have confirmed its validity and rigorous experimentation under carefully controlled conditions usually precedes the acceptance of a hypothesis as a law. The law of conservation of mass was developed from numerous past observation that proved its validity.

Aluminum metal and manganese (IV) oxide react to produce aluminum oxide and manganese metal. What mass of manganese (IV) oxide r
gayaneshka [121]

Answer: 1.77 kg of manganese (IV) oxide reacts to produce 1.12kg of manganese metal.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

4Al+3MnO_2\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3+3Mn

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

moles of manganese = \frac{1.12\times 1000g}{55g/mol}=20.4mol

According to stoichiometry :

3 moles of Mn is produced by = 3 moles of MnO_2

Thus 20.4 moles of Mn is produced by =\frac{3}{3}\times 20.4=20.4moles  of MnO_2

Mass of MnO_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=20.4moles\times 86.9g/mol=1773g=1.773kg    (1kg=1000g)

Thus 1.77 kg of manganese (IV) oxide reacts to produce 1.12kg of manganese metal.

0.023 M solution of perchloric acid
kogti [31]
The original question is to find the pH and the pOH of 0.023 M of perchloric acid.

Answer:
pH = 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Explanation:
1- getting the pH:
pH can be calculated using the following rule:
pH = -log[H+]
Since the given solution is an acid, this means that [H+] is the same as the concentration of the solution.
This means that:
[H+] = 0.023
Substitute in the above equation to get the pH as follows:
pH = -log[0.023]
pH = 1.638

2- getting the pOH:
We know that:
pH + pOH = 14
We have calculated that pH = 1.638.
Substitute in the above equation to get the pOH as follows:
pOH + 1.638 = 14
pOH = 14 - 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Hope this helps :)
