Oxygen is the element. It has a total of 6 valence electrons.
Mass cannot be created nor destroyed as well.
So, energy just goes into other things.
Example: you are born. You have carbon dioxide in your body, (or star dust). When you die, your body releases that gas.
Make sense?
I hope this helps! (:
So calculate the H for the other two reactions a room temperature and combine the reactions to calculate the H of the decomposition of calcium carbonate using the Hess's Law
Your question has been heard loud and clear.
Both scientific laws and scientific theories are not based on hypothesis.
Because , scientific laws are proven and so they are real not hypothetical.
Whereas scientifc theories can be hypothetical.
Thank you
