Why do we need an isolated system for the law of conservation of mass to be true?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

In a 71.4 g sample of nahco 3 3 ​ , how many grams of sodium are present?
sweet [91]

There are 19.5 g Na in 71.4 g NaHCO₃

Calculate the <em>molecular mass of NaHCO₃</em>.

1 Na = 1 × 22.99 u = 22.99   u

1 H   = 1 × 1.008 u =    1.008 u

1 C   = 1 × 12.01  u =  12.01    u

3 O = 3 × 16.00 u =  <u>48.00  u </u>

               TOTAL =  84.008 u

So, there are 22.99 g of Na in 84.008 g NaHCO₃.

∴ Mass of Na = 71.4 g NaHCO₃ × (22.99 g Na/84.008 g NaHCO₃) = 19.5 g Na

The adult blue whale has a lung capacity 5.0\times10^3 5.0 Ã 10 3 l. calculate the mass of air (assume an average molar mass of
Andre45 [30]
For this item, we need to assume that air behaves like that of an ideal gas. Ideal gases follow the ideal gas law which can be written as follow,
    PV = nRT
where P is the pressure, 
V is the volume,
 n is the number of mols,
R is the universal gas constant, and 
T is temperature

In this item, we are to determine first the number of moles, n. We derive the equation,
       n = PV /RT
Substitute the given values,

    n = (1 atm)(5 x 10³ L) / (0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(0 + 273.15)
    n = 223.08 mols

From the given molar mass, we calculate for the mass of air.
   m = (223.08 mols)(28.98 g/mol) = 6464.9 g

<em>ANSWER: 6464.9 g</em>

Heat water in a teakettle on the stove until it begins to boil. Heat enough water to partially fill your mixing bowl. While the
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Quality Assurance

The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in the internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system. This is another way of saying that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can be converted from one form to another form.  

A tea kettle that is warmed on an electric stove is receiving heat energy, this heat energy increases the kinetic energy of the water particles in the kettle and makes them to move faster. As time goes on, the water begins to turn into vapors. The heat energy that is released into the system is been used to carry out the work of evaporation and the whistling of the kettle.
