Jan Baptista van Helmont did an important experiment related to photosynthesis. He weighed a small willow tree and a pot of soil

. Jan then planted the tree in the pot. Over the course of five years, he added only water to the pot. At the end of five years, he weighed the tree and found that it had gained 74.4 kg. He weighed the soil, and it was only 57 g less. What do the results of this specific experiment demonstrate about what is needed for a plant to grow and increase its mass?

When mixtures of gaseous h2 and gaseous cl2 react, a product forms that has the same properties regardless of the relative amoun
lilavasa [31]
According to Dalton's Atomic Theory, the <em>Law of Definite Proportion is applied when a compound is always made up by a fixed fraction of its individual elements.</em> This is manifested by the balancing of the reaction.

The reaction for this problem is:

H₂ + Cl₂ → 2 HCl

1 mol of H₂ is needed for every 1 mole of Cl₂. Assuming these are ideal gases, the moles is equal to the volume. So, if equal volumes of the reactants are available, they will produce twice the given volumes of HCl.

In a chemical change through chemical reactions, a new kind of matter forms. When a paint is mixed together, a physical change has occurred and not a chemical change. The different color one perceives is just a mere overlap between the reflected white and red color which produces another hue.

Not all color changes infers a chemical reaction. A paint is a complex mixture on its own.
