Explanation: It is not an exception. The supposed loss of weight is accounted for by the gases escaping from the reaction. If we weigh the gases and the ashes, it will be the same as the log of wood

There are no exceptions to the law of conservation of mass

Overview. It may seem as though burning destroys matter, but the same amount, or mass, of matter still exists after a campfire as before. The mass of matter is always the same before and after the changes occur.

What is Avogadro's number, and why is it useful? (3 points)
SashulF [63]

Answer:

6.022 x 10²³; it is a conversion factor between moles and number of particles

Explanation:

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole of hydrogen  = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

238 g of uranium = 1 mole of uranium = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of uranium

By taking ions:

62 g of NO⁻₃ =  1 mole of  NO⁻₃  = 6.022 × 10²³ ions of  NO⁻₃

96 g of SO₄²⁻ = 1 mole of SO₄²⁻ =  6.022 × 10²³ ions of  SO₄²⁻

Four acids are analyzed and there KA values are determined which of the following values represents the strongest acid
Advocard [28]

x= the coefficients in front of the substance in the balanced chemical equation  

[H+]= the concentration of hydrogen ions  

[A-]= the concentration of the other ion that broke off from the H+  

[HA]= the un-disassociated acid concentration  

The higher the Ka value, the greater amount of disassociation of the reactants into products. As for acids, they will break down to form H+ ions. The more the H+ ions, the stronger acidity of the solution. Thus since A has the highest Ka value, that represents the strongest acid.  

You can determine the Ka value from a number of ways. If equilibrium concentrations are given of a certain acid solution, you can find the proportion of the concentration of ions to the concentration of the remaining HA molecules, using the equation above. Also, pH and KpH can be used in a number of ways. This gets more complicated and depends on the situation, and requires more advanced equations.


Hope this helped a little, its obviously not my best work

Suppose that a catalyst lowers the activation barrier of a reaction from 125kJ/mol to 55kJ/mol125⁢kJ/mol to 55kJ/mol. By what fa
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The factor of increasing reaction rate is 1,85x10¹².

Explanation:

Using arrhenius formula:

k = A e^\frac{-E_{a}}{RT}

Where k is rate constant; A is frecuency factor; Eₐ is activation energy; R is gas constant (0,008134 kJ/molK); T is temperature 25°C = 298,15K

Thus, replacing for an activation energy of 125 kJ/mol assuming A as 1:

k = 1,25x10⁻²²

When activation energy is 55kJ/mol:

k = 2,31x10⁻¹⁰

Thus, the factor of increasing reaction rate is:

2,31x10⁻¹⁰/1,25x10⁻²² =<em> 1,85x10¹²</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
