<u>Answer: </u>The correct statement is reacting 12 g of C with 32 g of O_2 to form 44 g of CO_2 and unused reactants.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, but it can only be transformed from one form to another. The total mass in the reaction remains constant.

From the given options:

  • 1. Reacting 12 g of C with 32 g of O_2 to form 44 g of CO_2 and unused reactants

The equation for this is given by:

C+O_2\rightarrow CO_2

Mass on the reactant side = (12 + 32)g = 44 g

Mass on the product side = 44 g

Hence, this equation follows Law of Conservation of mass.

  • 2. Weighing 100 g of Cu powder and 100 g of Fe filings

As, there is no equation formed, so there will be no chemical reaction and will not follow, law of conservation of mass.

  • 3. Heating 100 g of CaCO_3 to produce 56 g of CaO

The equation for this is given by:

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

Mass on the reactant side = 100 g

Mass on the product side = (56 + 0)g = 56g

Hence, this equation does not follow Law of Conservation of mass.

  • 4. Dissolving 10 g of NaCl in 100 g of water

As, salt is getting dissolved in water and hence, it is a physical change and will not follow law of conservation of mass.

Therefore, the correct statement is reacting 12 g of C with 32 g of O_2 to form 44 g of CO_2 and unused reactants.

The  laboratory  procedure that best  illustrate the law of conservation  is

heating 100 g of CaCo3  to produce  56 g of CaO  (answer C)

<u><em>explanation</em></u>

According to the law  of mass conservation ,  the mass of the  reactant  must   be equal  to the mass  of the product.

 According  to  option c Heating  100 g CaCO3  to produces  56 g CaO  (  40 +16=56)

The remaining mass  = 100-56  =  44  which  would the mass of CO2  [  12 + (16 x2)]= 44   since  CaCO3  decomposes to produce CaO  and  CO2


Therefore  the  mass  of reactant=   100g

                       mass  of product =  56 g +44 g =100

Therefore the laboratory    procedure for  decomposition  of CaCO<em>3</em>  illustrate the law of mass  conservation since the mass of reactant = mass of product.

Answer:

Acid + Oxide or Hydroxide

Many oxide, hydroxide and carbonate compounds

are insoluble in water, but do react with acid.

Acid + Oxide → Salt + Water

Acid + Hydroxide → Salt + Water

MgO (s) + HNO3 (aq) → Mg(NO3)2 (aq) + H2O (l)

CuOH (s) + HCl (aq) → CuCl (aq) + H2O (l)

Explanation:

lead compounds are the oxides: lead monoxide, PbO, in which lead is in the +2 state; lead dioxide, PbO2, in which lead is in the +4 state; and trilead tetroxide, Pb3O4. Lead monoxide exists in two modifications, litharge and massicot. Litharge, or alpha lead monoxide, is a red or reddish…

What kind of reaction occurs when you mix aqueous solutions of barium sulfide and sulfuric acid? what kind of reaction occurs wh
My name is Ann [436]

The kind of reaction that occurs when you mix aqueous solutions of barium sulfide and sulfuric acid is a precipitation reaction.

<h3>Further Explanation</h3>
  • The chemical reaction between Ba(OH)2(aq) and H2SO4(aq) is given by;

Ba(OH)₂(aq) + H₂SO4(aq) --> BaSO₄(aq) + 2H₂O(l)

  • This is a type of precipitation reaction, where a precipitate is formed after the reaction, that is Barium sulfate.
<h3>Other types of reaction</h3><h3>Neutralization reactions </h3>
  • These are reactions that involve reacting acids and bases or alkali to form salt and water as the only products.
  • For example a reaction between sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid.

NaOH(aq) + H₂SO₄(aq) → Na₂SO₄(aq) + H₂O(l)

<h3>Displacement reactions</h3>
  • These are reactions in which a more reactive atom or ion displaces a less reactive ion from its salt.

Mg(s) + CuSO₄(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + Cu(s)

<h3>Redox reactions </h3>
  • These are reactions that involve both reduction and oxidation occuring simultaneously durin a chemical reaction.
  • For example,

Mg(s) + CuSO₄(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + Cu(s)

  • Magnesium atom undergoes oxidation while copper ions undergoes reduction.
<h3>Decomposition reactions</h3>
  • These are type of reactions that involves breakdown of a compound into its constituents elements.
  • For example decomposition of lead nitrate.

Pb(NO3)2(S) → PbO(s) + O2(g) + NO2(g)

Zingerone, one of the flavor molecules in ginger,

The molecular formula of the compound is C12H15O3 hence the molar mass of the compound is 207 g/mol.

We need to obtain the number of moles of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the compound;

Carbon = 24.91 g/44g/mol × 1 mole of carbon = 0.566 moles

Mass of carbon =  0.566 moles × 12 g/mol = 6.792 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 6.522 g/18 g/mol × 2 moles = 0.725 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.725 moles  × 1 g/mol = 0.725 g

Mass of oxygen = 10 - (6.792 g + 0.725 g) = 2.483 g

Number of moles of oxygen = 2.483 g/16 g/mol = 0.155 moles

Now we must divide through by the lowest number of moles;

C - 0.566/0.155   H - 0.725/0.155     O - 0.155/0.155

C - 4                    H - 5                        O - 1

The simplest formula is C4H5O Recall that the molar mass of the compound lies between 150.0 and 220.0 g/mol

4(12) + 5(1) + 16 = 69

Hence; n = 3 and the molecular formula of the compound is C12H15O3

The molar mass of the compound is; 12(12) + 15(1) + 3(16) = 207 g/mol
