action between sodium and chlorine, table salt is produced. Which of the following statements correctly compares and contrasts the reactants with the resulting products used in a chemical equation?
A. The reactants are dangerous and the product can be eaten
B. The reactants and the products observe the law of conservation of mass
C. The reactants are a solid and a gas and the product is a gas

Answer:

B. The reactants and the products observe the law of conservation of mass

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

            2Na  +  Cl₂  →   2NaCl

Such a chemical reactions usually obeys the law of conservation of mass. The law states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but bonds are rearranged".

  • So, the most correct thing is that reactants and products observe the law of conservation of mass.
  • The number of atoms on both sides of the expression will be the same.
  • Therefore, option B is correct.

If 6.02*10^23 molecules of ammonia react with 12.04*10^23 molecules of hydrogen chloride, how many molecules are in the reaction
Helen [10]

Answer:

18.06 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Add the two amounts of molecules together.

6.02 × 10²³  +  12.04 × 10²³  =  18.06 × 10²³

You will have 18.06 × 10²³ molecules in the vessel when the reaction is complete.  This is because of the Law of Conservation of Mass.  Mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions.  You will have the exact number of molecules in the reaction vessel as you did in the beginning.  The types of molecules may change, but the number will stay the same.

Find ΔHrxn for the following reaction: <br><br> 2PbS(s)+3O2(g)→2PbO(s)+2SO2(g)
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = -827.5 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 PbS(s) + 3 O₂(g) → 2 PbO(s) + 2 SO₂(g)

We can calculate the standard enthalpy of reaction (ΔH°rxn) from the standard enthalpies of formation (ΔH°f) using the following expression.

ΔH°rxn = [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbO(s)) + 2 mol × ΔH°f(SO₂(g) )] - [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbS(s)) + 3 mol × ΔH°f(O₂(g) )]

ΔH°rxn = [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbO(s)) + 2 mol × ΔH°f(SO₂(g) )] - [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbS(s)) + 3 mol × ΔH°f(O₂(g) )]

ΔH°rxn = [2 mol × (-217.32 kJ/mol) + 2 mol × (-296.83)] - [2 mol × (-100.4) + 3 mol × 0 kJ/mol]

ΔH°rxn = -827.5 kJ
