According to the law of conservation of mass, what is the same on both sides of a balanced chemical equation?

A. the volume of the substances

B. the subscripts

C. the total mass of atoms

D. the coefficients

Answer:

A balanced equation demonstrates the conservation of mass by having the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.

Explanation:

Every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. ... Use coefficients of products and reactants to balance the number of atoms of an element on both sides of a chemical equation.

Consider the balanced equation for the combustion of methane.

CH

4

+

2O

2

→

CO

2

+

2H

2

O


All balanced chemical equations must have the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.


In this equation, we have 1

C

atom, 4

H

atoms, and 4

O

atoms on each side of the arrow.


The number of atoms does not change, so the total mass of all the atoms is the same before and after the reaction. Mass is conserved.


Here is a video that discusses the importance of balancing a chemical equation.

2. A sample of oxygen gas is placed in a rigid 1.5L glass container at STP. If the gas is
sladkih [1.3K]

The new pressure : P₂ = 1038.39 mmHg

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

1.5 L container at STP

Heated to 100 °C

Required

The new pressure

Solution

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure).

So P₁ =  1 atm = 760 mmHg

T₁ = 273 K

T₂ = 100 °C+273 = 373 K

Gay Lussac's Law  

When the volume is not changed, the gas pressure is proportional to its absolute temperature  

\tt \dfrac{P_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}

Input the value :

P₂=(P₁.T₂)/T₁

P₂=(760 x 373)/273

P₂ = 1038.39 mmHg

leva [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

On submission of an incorrect answer to a multiple-choice question with n options,  we will lose:

=\frac{ 1}{(n-1)} of credit

If we multiple-choice question has five answer choices. And we have submitted 1 wrong answer. the fraction of credit we loose :

=\frac{ 1}{(5-1)} of credit

=\frac{1}{4} of credit

=0.25 credit

The percentage of credit we loose:

=0.25\times 100 of credits

=25\% of credits
