Answer:
D. Gases were released to the atmosphere
Explanation:
In accordance to the law of conservation of mass, the total amount of reactants must equate the total amount of products at the end of the reaction because matter can not be lost or created. However, certain changes like gas evolution, formation of precipitate etc. indicates the occurrence of a chemical reaction.
In a chemical reaction, the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the reactant(s) because GASES, which constituted part of the mass of the reaction, WERE RELEASED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. However, if the mass of the gas released can be accounted for, the amount of reactants and products must balance.
Answer:
Mass = 112.54 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of copper = 18 g
How much copper(II) nitrate formed = ?
Solution:
Cu + 2AgNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2Ag
Number of moles of copper:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 18 g/ 29 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.6 mol
Now we will compare the moles of Cu with Cu(NO₃)₂ .
Cu : Cu(NO₃)₂
1 : 1
0.6 : 0.6
Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ :
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.6 mol × 187.56 g/mol
Mass = 112.54 g
Answer:
You never listed the options
Explanation:
A chemical reaction is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as opposed to a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction.
valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.
For example: H2O
O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron
O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable
O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.
