Describe how a chemical change follows the law of conservation of matter. give examples pls

Chemistry

Paha777 [63]2 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

In any chemical change, one or more initial substances change into a different substance or substances. ... According to the law of conservation of matter, matter is neither created nor destroyed, so we must have the same number and kind of atoms after the chemical change as were present before the chemical change

Example:

The carbon atom in coal becomes carbon dioxide when it is burned. The carbon atom changes from a solid structure to a gas but its mass does not change.

What is the percent by mass of carbon in acetone, c 3 h 6 o?
Tatiana [17]
In the problem, we are tasked to solved for the amount of carbon (C) in the acetone having a molecular formula of C 3 H 6 O. We need to find first the molecular weight if Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O).

Molecular Weight:
C=12 g/mol
H=1 g/mol
O=16 g/mol

To calculate for the percent by mass of acetone, we assume 1 mol of acetone.
%C=( \frac{3(12 g/mol)}{3(12 g/mol)+6(1 g/mol)+16 g/mol} ) x 100%
%C=62.07%
Therefore, the percent by mass of carbon in acetone is 62.07%

If the pressure changes from 1 atm to 3 atm, what does the volume of 30 L change to
DiKsa [7]

Answer: 10L

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial pressure P1 = 1 atm

New pressure P2 = 3 atm

Initial volume V2 = 30 L

New volume V2 = ?

Since pressure and volume are involved, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

1 atm x 30L = 3 atm x V2

30 atm L = 3 atm x V2

V2 = (30 atm L / 3 atm)

V2 = 10L

Thus, volume changed to 10 liters

Explain the difference in the boiling point of 2-methylpropane and 2-iodo-2-methylpropane in terms of both molecular polarity an
Len [333]
The Boiling Point of 2-methylpropane is approximately -11.7 °C, while, Boiling Point of <span>2-iodo-2-methylpropane is approximately 100 </span>°C.

As both compounds are Non-polar in nature, So there will be no dipole-dipole interactions between the molecules of said compounds.

The Interactions found in these compounds are London Dispersion Forces.

And among several factors at which London Dispersion Forces depends, one is the size of molecule.

Size of Molecule:
                          There is direct relation between size of molecule and London Dispersion forces. So, 2-iodo-2-methylpropane containing large atom (i.e. Iodine) experience greater interactions. So, due to greater interactions 2-iodo-2-methylpropane need more energy to separate from its partner molecules, Hence, high temperature is required to boil them.
