Why is the law of conservation of mass law and not a theory?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elodia [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as the system's mass cannot change, so quantity can neither be added nor be removed.

Explanation:

That is what I think on the subject

How many grams of octane (C8H18) must be burned to produce 300.0g of CO2?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

m_{C_8H_{18}}=85.67gC_8H_{18}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given combustion reaction of octane, it is possible for us to perform the stoichiometric method in order to calculate the mass of octane that is required to consume 300.0 g of oxygen by considering the 2:25 mole ratio, and the molar masses of 114.22 g/mol and 32.00 g/mol respectively:

m_{C_8H_{18}}=300.0gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}*\frac{2molC_8H_{18}}{25molO_2}*\frac{114.22gC_8H_{18}}{1molC_8H_{18}}   \\\\m_{C_8H_{18}}=85.67gC_8H_{18}

Regards!

The reaction described by H2(g)+I2(g)⟶2HI(g) has an experimentally determined rate law of rate=k[H2][I2] Some proposed mechanism
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Mechanism A and B are consistent with observed rate law

Mechanism A is consistent with the observation of J. H. Sullivan

Explanation:

In a mechanism of a reaction, the rate is determinated by the slow step of the mechanism.

In the proposed mechanisms:

Mechanism A

(1) H2(g)+I2(g)→2HI(g)(one-step reaction)

Mechanism B

(1) I2(g)⇄2I(g)(fast, equilibrium)

(2) H2(g)+2I(g)→2HI(g) (slow)

Mechanism C

(1) I2(g) ⇄ 2I(g)(fast, equilibrium)

(2) I(g)+H2(g) ⇄ HI(g)+H(g) (slow)

(3) H(g)+I(g)→HI(g) (fast)

The rate laws are:

A: rate = k₁ [H2] [I2]

B: rate = k₂ [H2] [I]²

As:

K-1 [I]² = K1 [I2]:

rate = k' [H2] [I2]

<em>Where K' = K1 * K2</em>

C: rate = k₁ [H2] [I]

As:

K-1 [I]² = K1 [I2]:

rate = k' [H2] [I2]^1/2

Thus, just <em>mechanism A and B are consistent with observed rate law</em>

In the equilibrium of B, you can see the I-I bond is broken in a fast equilibrium (That means the rupture of the bond is not a determinating step in the reaction), but in mechanism A, the fast rupture of I-I bond could increase in a big way the rate of the reaction. Thus, just <em>mechanism A is consistent with the observation of J. H. Sullivan</em>
