At high temperatures, calcium carbonate (CaCO3) decomposes to form calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. The average

mass of 1 calcium oxide molecule is 56.079 amu, and the average mass of 1 carbon dioxide molecule is 44.009 amu.
CaCO3 CaO + CO2
Which is the total mass of the 1 calcium carbonate molecule?
A. 12.070 amu
B. 44.009 amu
C. 56.079 amu
D. 100.088 amu

Answer:

Option D is correct

Explanation:

The individual mass of reactants in the reaction are

Calcium Oxide (CaO) =  56.079 amu

Carbon dioxide (CO2) = 44.009 amu

Since this reaction is a simple addition reaction in which no mass of the reactants is wasted. Also, no energy is released accompanied by conversion of mass into energy.

Hence, total mass of reactants would be equal to the mass of the product.

Thus, mass of calcium carbonate i.e CaCO3  is

= 56.079 + 44.009 \\

= 100.08 amu

Hence, option D is correct

The specific heat capacity of a certain type of cooking oil is 1.75 J/(g⋅∘C). What is the amount of heat exchanged when the temp
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Q = -811440 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oil = 2.76 Kg (2.76× 1000 = 2760 g)

Initial temperature = 191 °C

Final temperature = 23°C

Specific heat capacity of oil = 1.75 J/g.°C

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 23°C - 191 °C

ΔT = -168°C

Q = 2760 g ×1.75 J/g.°C  ×-168°C

Q = -811440 J

Negative sign show heat is released.

Based on the molar masses, how can you tell that an equation is balanced?
Ilya [14]
When you work with molar mass, you solve for the quantity of ''Moles'' within the substance by converting Mass. The way you can tell the equation is balanced would be by knowing whether the moles were equivalent on both sides or not. Therefore, if they are equal, it is balanced considering you have the same amount of moles on each side of the equation.

Pick the correct statement for the following isotope: a. 42Ca 42 is the mass number and 20 is the atomic number. b. 42 is the nu
kramer

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To label an element correctly using a combination of the symbol, mass number and atomic number furnishes some important information about the element.

We can obtain these information from the element provided that correct labeling of the element is presented. Firstly, after writing the symbol of the element, the atomic number is placed as a subscript on the left while the mass number of the atomic mass is placed as a superscript on the same left.

Looking at the question asked, we have the element symbol in the correct position as Ca, with 42 also in the correct position which is the mass number. The third number which is 20 is thus the atomic number of the element.
