Answer:

disagree

Explanation:

Cellulose (main component of wood beside lignin) is composed from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen with the following molecular formula  (C₆H₁₀O₅)ₓ (where x is the degree of condensation of beta-glucose units which are the basic monosaccharide of the cellulose polysaccharide).

Now when you burn cellulose you obtain carbon (ashes), carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water  (H₂O). Of course, beside the main products we may have other by-products but we consider them in very low quantity.

The difference between 3 kg of starting wood and 500 g of ashes is representing the quantity of carbon dioxide (CO₂)  and water (H₂O) formed.

We have to say that CO₂ and H₂O are in gaseous state and escape in the atmosphere.

The law of conservation of mass is always valid.

1) Sodium hydroxide is deliquescent. A sample of 3.0 g was dissolved in 100 mL; 10 mL was titrated with 34.9 mL HCl 0.2 M. What
ELEN [110]

From the calculation, the percentage of water in the sodium hydroxide sample is 7%.

<h3>What is neutralization?</h3>

The term neutralization has to do with the reaction between an acid and a base to yiled salt and water.

Now we have  to apply the titration formula;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CA = concentration of acid

CB = concentration of base

VA = volume of acid

VB = volume of base

NA = number of moles of acid

NB = number of moles of base

The reaction equation is; HCl + NaOH ----->NaCl + H2O

CAVANB = CBVBNA

CB = CAVANB /VBNA

CB = 34.9 * 0.2 M * 1/10 * 1

CB = 0.698 M

Number of moles = Conncentration * volume

= 0.698 M * 100/1000 L = 0.0698 moles

Mass = Number of moles * molar mass

Mass =  0.0698 moles * 40 g/mol = 2.79 g

percent of NaOH = 2.79 g/ 3g * 100/1 = 93%

Percent of water = 100- 93 = 7%

What is the hydrophobic effect? what types of atoms are most likely to be found in portions of molecules or entire molecules tha
HACTEHA [7]
Hydrophobic in simple terms is the "fear" of water.

In chemistry, Ionic salts are technically hydrophilic as they will dissolve in water.
most fats and oils or triesters won't why?

salts are made from ions and their structure contain polar bonds Na+ and Cl-
Fats and oils tend to not have these.

Fats and oils contain many carbon covalent bonds which are non-polar which tend to make the molecule non-polar as a whole, therefore, it can't dissolve in water and is said to be hydrophobic.

Hope that heps :)
