Cao + H2O ---->Ca(OH)2
Calculate the number of each reactant and the moles of the product
that is
moles = mass/molar mass
The moles of CaO= 56.08g/ 56.08g/mol(molar mass of Cao)= 1mole
the moles of water= 36.04 g/18 g/mol= 2.002moles
The moles of Ca (OH)2=74.10g/74.093g/mol= 1mole
The mass of differences of reactant and product can be therefore
explained as
1 mole of Cao reacted completely with 1 mole H2O to produce 1 mole of Ca(OH)2. The mass of water was in excess while that of CaO was limited
Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.
Answer:
When a candle burns, the hydrogen and carbon from the wax combine with the oxygen in the air to become carbon dioxide and water vapor. Most of the matter in the candle ends up as these two gases.
