Using the law of constant proportions which says that within the same compound, elements exist in fixed ratios.
Therefore; we can use the ratio of total mass to the mass of carbon, to determine the amount of carbon in another sample.
Mass C / Mass CH4 = Mass C / Mass CH4
43.2 g / 57.6 g = Mass C / 37.8 g
Mass C = 37.8 g × 43.2 g / 57.6 g
= 28.35 g
Hence; the percentage of carbon will be;
=(28.35/ 37.8 )× 100%
= 75 %
Thus; 75% of 37.8 g of methane is carbon
Answer:
Explanation:
This reaction type is a single replacement. The format of a single replacement is:
A= Al
B= Ni
C= SO
The coefficient 3 for Ni would become a subscript for AC. After you plug those into the reaction you need to count how many of each are on the left side and try to get the same number on the right side. Both sides must be equal to have a balanced equation.
Answer: Every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. ...
Use coefficients of products and reactants to balance the number of atoms of an element on both sides of a chemical equation.
