What is the Law of the Conservation of Mass

Chemistry
1 answer:
Fantom [35]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: law of conservation of matter states that mass in an isolated system can neither be created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformation.

thus, the mass of the reactants in a reaction must be equal to the mass of the products

If a helium balloon is put into a hot oven. What happens to the volume of the balloon?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

What about hot air balloons? They work by similar principles. If you heat up a gas it expands. In the case of a hot air balloon, when the gas inside the balloon expands the extra gas is pushed out the bottom of the balloon, meaning that there are fewer atoms inside the balloon, meaning that the air in the balloon is lighter than the air outside the balloon.

The amount of lifting power is controlled by how hot the air is. If you heat the air inside the balloon 100 degrees F hotter than the outside air temperature, then the air inside the balloon will be about 25 percent lighter than the air outside the balloon. So a cubic foot of air weighs about 35 grams at 32 degrees F. A cubic foot of hot air at 132 degrees F will weigh 25 percent less, or about 26.5 grams. The difference is 8.5 grams or so. So a hot air balloon has to be much bigger to support the same weight, but it will float because hotter air is lighter than cooler air.

Explanation:

The amount of lifting power

The amount of 217 mg of an isotope is given by A(t) = 217 € -0.0171, where t is time in years since the initial amount of 217 mg
Maru [420]

The amount left after 20 years = 154.15 mg

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

The main particles are emitted by radioactive elements so that they generally decay are alpha (α), beta (β) and gamma (γ) particles  

The decay formula for isotope :

\tt \large{\boxed{\bold{A(t)=217e^{-0.0171t}}}

Then for t=20 years, the amount left :

\tt A(t)=217e^{-0.0171\times 20}\\\\A(t)=154.15~mg

C. Another radioisotope of americium exists which has an atomic mass of 242.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

1 g  

Explanation:

The half-life of Am-242 (16 h) is the time it takes for half of it to disappear.

We can make a table of the mass left after each half-life.

\begin{array}{cccc}\textbf{No. of} & & \textbf{Percent} & \textbf{Mass}\\\textbf{Half-lives} & \textbf{Time/h} & \textbf{Remaining} & \textbf{Remaining/g}\\0& 0 & 100 & 8\\1 & 16 &50 & 4\\2 & 32 & 25 & 2\\3 & 48 & 12.5 & 1\\4 & 64 & 6.25 & 0.5\\\end{array}

The mass remaining after 48 h  is 1 g.
