Stoichiomety:
1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2
multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights
Atomic or molar weights:
C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol
Stoichiometry:
12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2
Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen
And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.
You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.
May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.
So you would just take the coefficient and put it into ratio form

40% solution of glucose is where the solution contains, by weight, 40% glucose and 60% water.
Therefore, if the total weight of the solution is 250 g,
mass of the glucose (C6H12O6) = 250 g * 40% = 100 g
mass of water (H2O) = 250 g * 60% = 150 g
Mass of water can also be calculated by subtracting the weight of glucose from the total weight of the solution:
mass of water = 250g-100g = 150g.
Answer: 2.7 grams
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
Given: mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 3.4 g
mass of acetic acid = 10.9 g
Mass of reactants = mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate+ mass of acetic acid = 3.4 + 10.9= 14.3 g
Mass of reactants = Mass of products in reaction vessel + mass of carbon dioxide (as it escapes)
Mass of carbon dioxide = 14.3 - 11.6 =2.7 g
Thus the mass of carbon dioxide released during the reaction is 2.7 grams.
Answer:
No, gases move freely all over the place, liquids move more freely but in a more contained area, and solids the molecules are rigid, at the most the movement is small vibration as the molecules put pressure on one another to hold their form and stay in place.
