Because it is an electromagnetic wave and thus has no mass !

In case of particle theory of light, the photons are so light weight , it has negligible mass thus not considered as matter !!

When chlorobenzene reacts with Mg in ether followed by CO2 and neutralization with dilute HCl, __________ will be formed.
allsm [11]

Answer:

c. benzoic acid

Explanation:

The given reaction is an example of a Grignard reaction:

When chlorobenzene (C₆H₅Cl) reacts with Mg in ether, an intermediate is formed (C₆H₅MgCl).

Said intermediate then reacts with CO₂ producing a benzoic acid salt (C₆H₅CO₂X), this salt is then neutralized with dilute HCl producing benzoic acid (C₆H₅CO₂H).

When hydrogen gas reacts with oxygen gas under certain conditions to produce liquid water, 572.0 kJ of heat energy is released.
frozen [14]

Answer : This reaction is an exothermic reaction.

Explanation :

Endothermic reaction : It is defined as the chemical reaction in which the energy is absorbed from the surrounding.

In the endothermic reaction, the energy of reactant are less than the energy of product.

Exothermic reaction : It is defined as the chemical reaction in which the energy is released into the surrounding.

In the exothermic reaction, the energy of reactant are more than the energy of product.

Enthalpy of reaction : It is the difference between the energy of product and the reactant. It is represented as \Delta H.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)+572.0kJ

From the reaction we conclude that the heat energy is released during the reaction that means this reaction is an exothermic reaction.

Hence, the reaction is an exothermic reaction.

What is the mass of oxygen in 3.34 g of potassium permanganate?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1.35 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

mass of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) = 3.34 g

Mass of Oxygen: ?

Solution:

First find the percentage composition of Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄)

So,

Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 39 + 55 + 4(16)

Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 158 g/mol

Calculate the mole percent composition of  Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄).

Mass contributed by Oxygen (O) = 4 (16) = 64 g

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

                        Percent of Oxygen (O) = 64 / 158 x 100

                        Percent of Oxygen (O) = 40.5 %

It means that for ever gram of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) there is 0.405 g of Oxygen (O) is present.

So,

for the 3.34 grams of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) the mass of Oxygen will be

                  mass of Oxygen (O) = 0.405 x 3.34 g

                  mass of Oxygen (O) = 1.35 g
