Mrs. Smith is demonstrating a chemical change for her class. She places 15 grams of baking soda into a beaker. Next she adds 15

grams of vinegar to the same beaker. When the two compounds make contact, they bubble and fizz a great deal. She places the beaker on the balance and notes that the mass of the solution in the beaker is less than the expected 30 grams. Why is the mass of the solution in the beaker less than 30 grams? A) The balance was not working correctly. B) The gas that was released changed the mass. C) Mass is always lost in a chemical reaction. D) The new products have less mass than the original reactants.

Answer:

B) The gas that was released changed the mass.

Explanation:

In the acid base reaction of vinegar and sodium bicarbonate, sodium acetate, water and carbon dioxide are formed.

C_{2}H_{4} O_{2}+NaHCO_{3}  → NaC_{2} H_{3}O_{2} +H_{2} O+CO_{2}↑

Carbon dioxide is released from the beaker in the form of gas (as can be seen in the previous reaction), which is due to the loss of mass observed. This compound is responsible for the formation of bubbles in the reaction.

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

∴ B is the Answer

Draw the product formed when cyclohexene is reacted with H2 in the presence of Pt. Note: If adding hydrogen atoms to a carbon at
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

It has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.

Explanation:

The product formed as a result of the reaction of cyclohexene with H2​ in presence of Pt (platinum) can be described as catalytic hydrogenation. Catalytic hydrogenation is defined as the process of hydrogen addition in the presence of a catalyst, which in this case is platinum.

Note that Cyclohexene (alkene) is a hydrocarbon molecule represented by the chemical formula, C6​H10​ .

It consists of a double bond. During the hydrogenation reaction, the alkene undergoes an addition reaction to give alkane which is a saturated hydrocarbon as the product.

The first step in order to derive the product is to draw the chemical structure of cyclohexene and identify the double bond present in it.

The final product can be derived by replacing the double bond with the single bond and satisfying all the valences of the carbon atom. The final product structure has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.

Ans:

The structure of the cyclohexane thus, formed has been shown as follows with all the hydrogen atoms:
