There should be mass balance and the charge balance between the reactants and the products
Mass balance : total no of individual atoms of each type should be balanced before and after the reaction
Charge balance : Overall charge of the reactants should be balanced with the overall charge of the products
You can balance,
1)by just looking at it
2)by Algebraic method given above or
3)by the redox method
You need to know how to get the oxidation numbers in order to use the oxidation method
Answer:
The law of conservation of mass states that in a closed system, mass is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical or physical reaction. The law of conservation of mass is applied whenever you balance a chemical equation.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.
The law of conservation of mass is useful for a number of calculations and can be used to solve for unknown masses, such the amount of gas consumed or produced during a reaction.
It is applicable in a chemical when the the mass of the products in a chemical reaction is equal to the mass of the reactants.
But it is not applicable in a nuclear fusion as some of the mass is generated as energy.
Answer:
1.7 bar
Explanation:
We can use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em> to calculate the individual gas pressure.
pV = nRT Divide both sides by V
p = (nRT)/V
Data: n = 1.7 × 10⁶ mol
R = 0.083 14 bar·L·K⁻¹mol⁻¹
T = 22 °C
V = 2.5 × 10⁷ L
Calculations:
(a) <em>Change the temperature to kelvins
</em>
T = (22 + 273.15) K
= 295.15 K
(b) Calculate the pressure
p = (1.7 × 10⁶ × 0.083 14 × 295.15)/(2.5× 10⁷)
= 1.7 bar
The answer is: [D]: a reactant.
