What reaction illustrates the law of conservation of mass ?

1 answer:

8 0

The law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. For example, when wood burns, the mass of the soot, ashes, and gases, equals the original mass of the charcoal and the oxygen when it first reacted. So the mass of the product equals the mass of the reactant

What type of reaction is : CaCo3+ HCl = CaCl2 + CO2 +H2O

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Double decomposition reaction

Explanation:

When hydrochloric acid reacts with any carbonates/hydrogen carbonates the products formed are metal chloride , water and carbon dioxide.Since HCl decomposes salts of weaker acids.

So the equation of the reaction between calcium carbonate and HCl is:

CaCO3+2HCl =CaCl2+H2O+CO2

This reaction is also known as double decomposition reaction.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Balanced] C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2C₂H₅OH + 2CO₂

[Given] 500. g C₆H₁₂O₆ (Glucose)

[Solve] moles C₂H₅OH (Ethanol)

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2 mol C₂H₅OH

[PT] Molar mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ - 6(12.01) + 12(1.01) + 6(16.00) = 180.18 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

[DA] Set up conversion: $\displaystyle 500 \ g \ C_6H_{12}O_6(\frac{1 \ mol \ C_6H_{12}O_6}{180.18 \ g \ C_6H_{12}O_6})(\frac{2 \ mol \ C_2H_5OH}{1 \ mol \ C_6H_{12}O_6})$
[DA} Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 5.55001 \ mol \ C_2H_5OH$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

5.55001 mol C₂H₅OH ≈ 5.55 mol C₂H₅OH

Gas has a volume of 247.3 ML and is at 100 Celsius and 745 Hg. If the mass of the gas is 0.347 g what is the molar mass of the v

Ahat [919]

Answer:

The molar mass of the vapor is 43.83 g/mol

Explanation:

Given volume of gas = V = 247.3 mL = 0.2473 L

Temperature = T = 100 $^{\circ}C$ = 373 K

Pressure of the gas = P = 745 mmHg (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

$P = \displaystyle \frac{745}{760} \textrm{ atm} = 0.9802 \textrm{ atm}$

Mass of vapor = 0.347 g

Assuming molar mass of gas to be M g/mol

The ideal gas equation is shown below

$\textrm{PV} =\textrm{nRT} \\\textrm{PV} = \displaystyle \frac{m}{M}\textrm{ RT } \\0.98026 \textrm{ atm}\times 0.2473 \textrm{ L} = \displaystyle \frac{3.47 \textrm{ g}}{M}\times 0.0821 \textrm{ L.atm.mol}^{-1}.K^{-1}\times 373\textrm{K} \\M = 43.834 \textrm{ g/mol}$

The molar mass of the vapor comes out to be 43.834 g/mol
