The volume of a quartz mineral sample was determined placing the weighed sample in a graduated cylinder containing 56.3 mL water

. With the mineral sample completely submerged, the water level was 68.2 mL. THis measuring method, known as water displacement, uses the volume of an irregular object. The dry mass of the quartz sample was 31.18 g. What was the density of the quartz in g/cm^3?

To find the actual volume you need to subtract 68.2 and 56.3 which would be 11.9 ml. density is mass divided by volume so 31.18 g/11.9 is equal to 2.62 g

C + O2 → CO2 ,
DerKrebs [107]
First, if you want to get the amount of production from the equation, you need to use the units of mol. So, we need to know the molar mass of C which is 15.75/12=1.31 mol. Then we need to use the less part(O2) to get the production amount which is 0.116 mol. Then we can get the answer in units of g: 0.116*(12+16*2)=5.104 g.

In one of his experiments, Lavoisier placed 10.0 grams of mercury (II) oxide into a sealed container and heated it. The mercury

Oxygen gas produced : 0.7 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

10.0 grams HgO

9.3 grams Hg

Required

Oxygen gas produced

Solution

Reaction⇒Decomposition

2HgO(s)⇒2Hg(l)+O₂(g)

Conservation of mass applies to a closed system, where the masses before and after the reaction are the same

mass of reactants = mass of products

mass  HgO = mass Hg + mass O₂

10 g = 9.3 g + mass O₂

mass O₂ = 0.7 g
