Answer : The total mass of oxygen gas released in the reaction will be, 12.8 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,

According to the law of conservation of mass,
Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side
Total mass of
= Total mass of 
or,
Total mass of
= Mass of
+ Mass of 
As we are given :
Total mass of
= 16.12 grams
The mass of
= 9.72 grams
So,
Total mass of
= Mass of
+ Mass of 


Therefore, the total mass of oxygen gas released in the reaction will be, 12.8 grams
In an exothermic reaction, the water will increase in temperature in a calorimeter. An exothermic reaction is a reaction where heat is one of the products or heat is being released from it which will cause for the temperature inside the calorimeter to increase.
Answer:
CH2 is the chemical name for methylene and belongs to the general compound category of Alkenes. It comprises of a single carbon atom bonded with 2 hydrogen atoms . The general formula for alkenes is C(n)H(2n) with n denoting the number of carbon atoms and thus deciding the name of the compound.
