Answer:

Yes, Mass is conserved.

Explanation:

Every chemical reactions obey the law of conservation of mass. The law of conservation of mass states that in chemical reactions, mass is always constant.

     Equation:

                       2Na + Cl₂  →  2NaCl

From the equation above, one can observe that the reaction started using 2 atoms of Na and it produced 2 atoms of the same element in NaCl. A molecule of Cl produced 2 atoms of Cl in the NaCl

Design a simple experiment to support your answer:

Aim: To demonstrate the law of conservation of mass

   One Na atom weighs 23g

   Two Na atom will weigh 2 x 23 = 46g

1 atom of Cl is 35.5g

1 molecule of Cl containing two atoms of Cl will weigh 2 x 35.5 = 71g

Total mass of reactants = mass of 2Na + 1Cl₂ = (46 + 71)g = 117g

On the product side, Mass of 1 NaCl = 23+ 35.5 = 58.5g

Two moles of NaCl will give 2 x 58.5g = 117g

Since the mass on both side is the same, one can say mass is conserved.

Match the following names of glassware with what you would use them for.
Valentin [98]

Answer:

A) Graduated pipette – Glassware used to accurately transfer small volumes.

B) Volumetric pipette – Glassware used to accurately transfer a small, single volume.

C) Beaker – Glassware best used when greater access to the contents is needed.

D) Buret – Glassware used to deliver a volume not known in advance.

E) Erlenmeyer flask – Glassware used to prevent splashing or evaporation.

F) Volumetric flask – Glassware used to make accurate solutions.

Explanation:

Graduated pipette – Glassware used to accurately transfer small volumes.

A graduated pipette is a pipette, which has a scale that shows its volume marked along the tube. It is used to transfer small volumes accurately.

Volumetric pipette – Glassware used to accurately transfer a small, single volume.

A volumetric pipette is a pipette, which has a ring like marking that is its calibrated volume. So it is used to transfer a single and small volume only. This pipette is used in volumetric analysis.

Beaker – Glassware best used when greater access to the contents is needed.

Beaker is the most widely used glassware in the laboratory. They are used to transfer large volume with less accuracy. They are of different sizes depends on the size of volumes ranging from 10 mL to 1000 mL.

Buret – Glassware used to deliver a volume not known in advance.

Buret is the most important glassware in the quantitative analysis. It has a glass tube with scale which measures the volume and a stopcock at one end from which the solvent is dispersed. It is used to measure the volume of the liquid during the titration in the quantitative analysis.

Erlenmeyer flask – Glassware used to prevent splashing or evaporation.

The most common names of Erlenmeyer flask are conical flask and titration flask. This flask has flat bottom, conical body and cylindrical neck which prevent splashing and evaporation. This flask is used in the titration process in the quantitative analysis. The solvent from the buret is delivered into the conical flask during the titration process.

Volumetric flask – Glassware used to make accurate solutions.

The volumetric flask is also an important glassware in the analytical laboratory. It is used to prepare standard solutions. It is a flask which has a ring like marking that is its calibrated volume. The mentioned volume of volumetric flask is calibrated to have accurate volume.

A 25.0g tin sample was placed in boiling water at 99.5 C until it had the same temperature. Afterwards, the tin sample was place
MrMuchimi

Answer : The specific heat of tin is, 0.213 J/g.K

Explanation :

Formula used :

q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

where,

q = amount of heat lost = -399.4 J

c = specific heat capacity of tin = ?

m = mass of tin = 25.0 g

T_{final} = final temperature = 24.5^oC=273+24.5=297.5K

T_{initial} = initial temperature = 99.5^oC=273+99.5=372.5K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

-399.4J=25.0g\times c\times (297.5-372.5)K

c=0.213J/g.K

Therefore, the specific heat of tin is, 0.213 J/g.K
