How does the law of conservation of mass apply to this reaction: Mg + HCl > H2 + MgCl2 ?​

Answer:

Explanation:

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.

Chemical equation:

Mg + HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂

24 g + 36.5 g = 2 g+ 95 g

60.5 g = 97 g

The reaction does not hold the law of conservation of mass, because it is not balanced.

Balanced chemical equation:

Mg + 2HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂

24 g + 73 g = 2 g+ 95 g

97 g = 97 g

this equation completely follow the law of conservation of mass.

Given the equation: HCl + Na2SO4 → NaCl + H2SO4, if you start with 8 moles of hydrochloric acid, how many grams of sulfuric acid
Simora [160]

Answer:

392g sulfuric acid are produced

Explanation:

Based on the balanced equation:

2HCl + Na2SO4 → 2NaCl + H2SO4

<em>2 moles of HCl produce 1 mole of sulfuric acid</em>

<em />

To solve the problem we need to find the moles of sulfuric acid produced based on the chemical equation. Then, using its molar mass -<em>Molar mass H2SO4 = 98g/mol- </em>we can find the mass of sulfuric acid produced:

<em>Moles sulfuric acid:</em>

8mol HCl * (1mol H2SO4 / 2mol HCl) = 4 mol H2SO4

<em>Mass sulfuric acid:</em>

4mol H2SO4 * (98g / mol) =

392g sulfuric acid are produced

34. Explain how dimensional analysis is used to solve<br> problems.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer: By understanding conversion factors and how they are related to each other

Explanation:

Dimensional Analysis is a step by step approach to solving problems in Physics, Chemistry , and Mathematics. It involves having a clear knowledge and understanding to be able to convert a given unit to another in the same dimension using  conversion factors and knowing how they are related to each other.

For instance, In Chemistry, we want to Convert 120mL to L.(note that ml stands for millilitres and ;L stands for litres)

Or first approach will be to write out the conversion factor related to our problem which is

1000ml =1L

such that 120ml = (we cross multiply))

giving us  120ml x 1L/1000ml =0.12L

This same process is applied to convert any type of dimensional analysis problems be it physics or mathematics.
