The States of Matter are classified into solid, liquid, and gas. Among these physical states, if we are going to refer to the water molecules, the one that would possess the greatest energy is gas. If you would take the energy of gas, this would become liquid. The answer is option C.
Answer:
Explanation:
a) The mass of the reactants is 2.36 grams, and the mass of the products is 1.57 grams plus the mass of the carbonic acid. Thus, using the law of conservation of mass, we get the mass of the carbonic acid is 2.36 - 1.57 = 0.79 grams.
b) The gram-formula mass of sodium bicarbonate is 84.006 g/mol, meaning that 2.36/84.006 = 0.028 moles were consumed. Thus, this means that in theory, 0.014 moles of carbonic acid should have been produced, which would have a mass of (0.014)(62.024)=0.868 grams. Thus, the percentage yield is (0.79)/(0.868) * 100 = 91%
If you only want to balance nuclear reactions, then you should know that number of nucleons are conserved before and after nuclear reaction. Also, charge is conserved as well.
Other things which are conserved in a nuclear reaction are:
Conservation of:
1. Parity
2. Spin
3. angular momentum(vector sum of intrinsic spin and orbital angular momentum)
4. linear momentum
5. Isotopic spin
6. Energy
