Does a laboratory balance measure mass or weight

Chemistry
1 answer:
kolezko [41]3 years ago
5 0
A balance in a lab measures the weight of a substance or object.
Weight is the mass of the body x the gravitation pull on the mass of the object.

So the mass of the object can be found by dividing the weight by gravitational constant.

The gravitational constant on earth is 1. so if a balance says that a substance weighs 300g then its mass is also 300g on earth because 300/1 = 300.

Hope that helps :)

If 5.0 moles of C3H8 react, how many molecules of water are formed?
artcher [175]
Balance Chemical Equation for combustion of Propane is as follow,

                         C₃H₈  +  5 O₂    →    3 CO₂  +  4 H₂O

According to equation,

              1 mole of C₃H₈ on combustion gives  =  4 moles of H₂O
So,
        5 moles of C₃H₈ on combustion will give  =  X moles of H₂O

Solving for X,
                                    X  =  (5 mol × 4 mol) ÷ 1 mole

                                    X  =  20 moles of H₂O

Calculating number of molecules for 20 moles of H₂O,
As,
                        1 mole of H₂O contains  =  6.022 × 10²³ molecules
So,
                20 moles of H₂O will contain  =  X molecules

Solving for X,
                                 X  =  (20 mole × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules) ÷ 1 mol

                                 X  =  1.20 ×10²⁵ Molecules of H₂O
