1. Is mass conserved when 50 g of sugar undergoes a physical change? Use complete sentences to support your answer by explaining

how this can be demonstrated.
2. During an investigation a scientist burned 48 g of magnesium strip. After the reaction the total mass of the product formed was found to be 80 g. Does the law of conservation of mass hold true in this case? Use complete sentences to justify your answer based on numerical calculations.

ACTUALLY answer the question please instead of posting stupid comments like on the last one

The law of conservation of mass applies to both cases, the following will explain how:

1. When 50 g of sugar undergoes a physical change, say for example dissolving or melting, the amount of sugar in the solution or melted form will also be 50 grams. This shows that the mass before and after the change was the same, in accordance to the law of conservation of mass.

2. When the magnesium strip is burned, this is a chemical reaction. The problem is that we only measure the mass of one of the substances involved in the reaction, the magnesium strip, which makes it seem like the mass has increased. Actually, during burning, the magnesium combines with oxygen in the air. This oxygen was present before the reaction, we just did not measure it. And after the reaction it is present in the form of product. Therefore, mass is still conserved.

Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.

How many grams of magnesium acetate are in 8.95x10^23 formula units?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

211.63 g.

Explanation:

  • Particles could refer to atoms, molecules, formula units.
  • <em>Knowing that every one mole of a substance contains Avogadro's no. of molecules (NA = 6.022 x 10²³).</em>

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:  </u></em>

1.0 mole → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

??? mole → 8.95 x 10²³ molecules.

  • The no. of moles of magnesium acetate = (8.95 x 10²³ molecules) (1.0 mole) / (6.022 x 10²³ molecules) = 1.486 mol.

∴ The grams of magnesium acetate are in 8.95 x 10²³ formula units = n x molar mass = (1.486 mol)(142.394 g/mol) = 211.63 g.
