Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows:
The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
This verbal statement can be expressed in equation form as follows:
a = Fnet / m
Answer:
Fe₂O₃ and C are reactants
Fe and CO₂ are products
Explanation:
Reactants:
Chemical species that are present on left side of chemical reaction equation are called reactants.
Product:
Chemical species that are present on right side of chemical reaction equation are called product.
Chemical equation:
2Fe₂O₃ + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO₂
In this reaction 2 mole of iron oxide is react with three moles of carbon and produced four moles of iron and three moles of carbon dioxide. There are equal numbers of atoms of all elements present on both side of chemical reaction so this reaction follow the law of conservation of mass.
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
Explanation:
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Number of Atoms in Gold for given mass can be calculated using following formula,
# of Moles = Number of Atoms / 6.022 × 10²³
Or,
Number of Atoms = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ ------- (1)
Calculating Moles,
As,
Moles = Mass / M.mass
So,
Moles = 4.25 g / 196.96 g/mol
Moles = 0.0215
Putting value of mole in eq.1,
Number of Atoms = 0.0215 × 6.022 × 10²³
Number of Atoms = 1.299 × 10²²
Result:
4.25 g of Gold Nugget contains 1.299 × 10²² Atoms.
