According to the law of conservation of mass, what is the same on both sides of a balanced chemical equation?
Firlakuza [10]

According to the law of conservation of mass, what is the same on both sides of a balanced chemical equation?

A. the volume of the substances

B. the subscripts

C. the total mass of atoms

D. the coefficients

Answer:

A balanced equation demonstrates the conservation of mass by having the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.

Explanation:

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.

Consider the balanced equation for the combustion of methane.

CH

4

+

2O

2

→

CO

2

+

2H

2

O


All balanced chemical equations must have the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.


In this equation, we have 1

C

atom, 4

H

atoms, and 4

O

atoms on each side of the arrow.


The number of atoms does not change, so the total mass of all the atoms is the same before and after the reaction. Mass is conserved.


Here is a video that discusses the importance of balancing a chemical equation.

If we react 30 grams of ethane (C2H6 ) with 320 grams of oxygen, how many grams of carbon dioxide would we make
V125BC [204]

The mass of carbon dioxide that would be made by reacting 30 grams C2H6 with 320 grams O2 will be 80 grams

From the balanced equation of the reaction:

2C_2H_6+7O_2---4CO_2+6H_2O

The mole ratio of C2H6 to O2 is 2:7.

  • Mole of 30 grams C2H6 = mass/molar mass

                                        = 30/30

                                       = 1 mole

  • Mole of 320 grams O2 = 320/32

                                       = 10 moles

Thus, C2H6 is the limiting reactant.

Mole ratio of C2H6 to CO2 according to the equation = 1:2

Since the mole of C2H6 is 1, the equivalent mole of CO2 would, therefore, be 2.

Mass of 2 moles CO2 = mole x molar mass

                                    = 2 x 44

                                      = 88 grams

Why do all atoms of an element have the same atomic number, although they may have
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Here’s what I get.

Explanation:

  • The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
  • The number of protons determines the number of electrons.
  • The number of electrons determines the chemical properties of the element,

Thus, the atomic number determines the identity of the element.

The atomic mass does not affect the chemical properties, so different isotopes of an element behave alike.
