Why is the Law of Conservation of Mass a law, rather than a theory?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Colt1911 [192]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: During a chemical reaction, matter cannot be created nor destroyed, matter can change form through physical and chemical changes, but through any of these changes, matter is conserved; even though the matter may change from one form to another, the same number of atoms exists before and after the change takes place.

nignag [31]
Your balanced equation for this reaction is:

HCOOH (aq) + H2O (aq) → HCOO- (aq) + H3O+ (aq)

So from the reaction, we can see when formic acid dissolved in water so H3O+ ions will be formed.
and we can see that it is a balanced equation as:
we have H atoms = 4 on both sides of the reaction
and C atoms = 1 atom on both sides of the reaction
and O atoms = 3 atoms on both sides of the reaction
So it is our final balanced equation of the reaction.

Which process is an oxidation?
Zarrin [17]
<span>The problem has to do with oxidation states of the matter. The oxidation state of oxygen will always be -2 with the exception of peroxides which will have a state of -1. The overall balanced state of chemical compounds will be 0, so the oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 will be +4. The oxidation state of MnO4- will then be +7 to balance out to the negative one charge. The state change from +4 to +7 is 3, thus three electrons have to be lost in order for this to happen; a loss of a charge of -3 results in an increase of charge of 3. Oxidation is always the process of 'losing' electrons.

What is the chemical equation
Serggg [28]

Chemical equation is the symbolic representation of chemical reactions.

Explanation

Chemical reactions are known as the reaction where two or more molecules or compounds react with each other leading to formation of product compounds along with either release or absorption of energy.

The symbolic representation of the processes occurring in a chemical reaction is termed as chemical equation.

The symbolic representation includes the reactants, products, external energy type and quantity of external energy and also about release of energy if occurs.

So the reactants are usually written in the left side of the chemical equation whereas on the right the products are written.

Both the sides are linked by a single headed arrow mark.

Some both the sides are linked by double heated arrow mark indicating the equilibrium chemical reaction.
