You heat 51 grams of magnesium over a Bunsen burner for several minutes until it reacts with oxygen in the air. Then you weigh t

he resulting product and see that it is now 53 grams. How does this happen without breaking the Law of Conservation of Mass?

Answer:

    The mass was there all along, it was just in the air. The weight of the oxygen from the air is not weighed in the beginning, only at the end as part of the product, making it seem like there is a total mass change.

If a 100. -g sample of a hydrated compound contains 37.07-g sodium, 48.39-g carbonate and 14.54-g water, find the empirical form
Mumz [18]

he required empirical formula based on the data provided is Na2CO3.H2O.

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

The term empirical formula refers to the formula of a compound which shows the ratio of each specie present.

We have the following;

Mass of sodium = 37.07-g

Mass of carbonate = 48.39 g

Mass of water = 14.54-g

Number of moles of sodium = 37.07-g/23 g/mol = 2 moles

Number of moles of carbonate = 48.39 g/61 g/mol = 1 mole

Number of moles of water = 14.54/18 g/mol = 1 mole

The mole ratio is 2 : 1: 1

Hence, the required empirical formula is Na2CO3.H2O

How do you know when a solution is saturated? _____________________________________________________ When a solution is saturated
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

If more solute is added and it does not dissolve, then the original solution was saturated

If more solute is added and it does not dissolve, then the original solution was saturated. If the added solute dissolves, then the original solution was unsaturated. A solution that has been allowed to reach equilibrium but which has extra undissolved solute at the bottom of the container must be saturate

What type of reaction is   3Ca(OH)2 + Al2(SO4)3 = 3CaSO4 + 2Al(OH)3 Combustion, Synthesis, Decomposition, Single Displacement, D
Alexeev081 [22]
Answer is: <span>Double Displacement.
Combustion is reaction with oxygen.
</span>Synthesis is reaction of two or more substances combining to make a more complex substance. 
Decomposition is reaction where one substance is broken down into two or more simpler substances. 
Single Displacement is reaction where  neutral element metal or nonmetal become an ion as it replaces another ion in a compound. 
<span>Double displacement reactions (more reactive metals displace metals with lower reactivity).
</span>Neutralization<span>is is </span>reaction<span> in which an </span>acid<span> and a </span>base<span> react quantitatively with each other.</span>

What is the new solution concentration when 150. mL of water is added to 200. mL of a 3.55 M HBr solutions.
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The new concentration is 2.03M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A 200 mL 3.55 M HBr is diluted with 150 mL

Step 2: The dilution

In a dilution, the ratio that exists between the concentration of the stock solution and the concentration of the diluted solution equals the ratio that exists between the volume of the diluted solution and the volume of the stock solution.

Dilution factor = [stock sample]/[diluted sample] = diluted volume / stock volume

In this case, the volume of the stock solution is 200 mL

Adding  150 mL  of water to the stock solution will dilute it to a final volume of 200 + 150 = 350 mL

The dilution factor wll be 350/200 = 1.75

This makes the diluted concentration:

3.55/1.75 = 2.03M

The new concentration is 2.03M
