Atoms are the smallest particles of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. During any chemical reaction no particles are created or destroyed: the atoms are simply rearranged from the reactants to the products. The products may have different properties to the reactants.
Mass is never lost or gained in chemical reactions. We say that mass is always conserved. In other words, the total mass of products at the end of the reaction is equal to the total mass of the reactants at the beginning.
This fact allows you to work out the mass of one substance in a reaction if the masses of the other substances are known.
Answer:
Carbon dioxide is used as a refrigerant, in fire extinguishers, for inflating life rafts and life jackets, blasting coal, foaming rubber and plastics, promoting the growth of plants in greenhouses, immobilizing animals before slaughter, and in carbonated beverages.
Answer:
Volume occupied by 55.5 moles of water gas at STP = 1240 Liters.
Explanation:
1st keep in mind that 'volume' in the context of problems like this apply only to the gas phase form of the substance. Water in solid form (ice) or liquid form (liquid water) do not apply. Volume in this case is referred to as 'molar volume' and is a gas occupying 22.4 liters at STP conditions (0°C, 1Atm).
So, if 1 molar volume of water gas (steam) occupies 22.4 Liters at STP, then 55.5 moles of water gas occupies 22.4 Liters/mole x 55.5 moles = 1243.2 Liters, or 1240 Liters (3 sig. figs.). :-)

Diamond : mostly made of carbon (C) so element
Salt: made of sodium ions and chloride ions (NaCI) so coumpound
