Answer:

A balanced chemical equation will demonstrate the law of conservation of mass because the amount of elements on one side (reactants) will equal the amount of elements on the other side (products).

Explanation:

CH₄ + 4Cl₂ -> CCl₄ + 4HCl

Reactants:

1 C

4 H

8 Cl

Products:

1 C

4 H

8 Cl

Matter cannot be created or destroyed in chemical reactions. This is the law of conservation of mass. In every chemical reaction, the same mass of matter must end up in the products as started in the reactants. Balanced chemical equations show that mass is conserved in chemical reactions.

The volume of a sample of gas is 0.5 L and the pressure is 0.98 atm. The volume is increased to 1.0 L. Show the set
meriva

Given,

P1 = 0.98 atm

V1 = 0.5 L

V2 = 1.0 L

P2 = ?

Solution,

According to Boyle's Law,

P1V1 = P2V2

0.98 × 0.5 = 1.0 × P2

P2 = 0.98 × 0.5 × 1.0

P2 = 0.49 atm

Answer - The new pressure is 0.49 atm.

BALANCE the equation
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

1. 4FeCl3 + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 6Cl2

2. 6 moles of Cl2

Explanation:

1. The balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

4FeCl3 + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 6Cl2

2. Determination of the number of mole of Cl2 produce when 4 moles of FeCl3 react with 4 moles. To obtain the number of mole of Cl2 produced, we must determine which reactant is the limiting reactant.

This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of FeCl3 reacted with 3 moles of O2.

Since lesser amount of O2 (i.e 3 moles) than what was given (i.e 4 moles) is needed to react completely with 4 moles of FeCl3, therefore FeCl3 is the limiting reactant and O2 is the excess reactant.

Finally, we can obtain the number of mole Cl2 produced from the reaction as follow:

Note: the limiting reactant is used as it will produce the maximum yield of the reaction since all of it is used up in the reaction.

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of FeCl3 will react to produced 6 moles of Cl2.
