The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. This can be gleane

d from the third postulate in Dalton's series. Magnesium oxide decomposes into magnesium and oxygen. If 4.03 g of magnesium oxide decomposes to form 2.43 g of magnesium, what mass of oxygen gas is also released in the reaction

Answer:

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. This can be gleaned from the third postulate in Dalton's series. Magnesium oxide decomposes into magnesium and oxygen. If 4.03 g of magnesium oxide decomposes to form 2.43 g of magnesium, what mass of oxygen gas is also released in the reaction

The word say magnesium oxide decomposes to magnesium and oxygen

the chemical symbols say

MgO-----------> Mg + O2  (since natural oxygen is diatomic)

the balanced  equation says

2MgO-------------->2Mg + O2

4.03 gm----------> 2.43 + ?0 gms

tour high school Algebra I class says

? = 4.03 -2.43 =1.60

your chemical analytcal lab says %mO in MgO = 16/40.3 = 39.7%

your calculator says

39.7/100 X 4.03 = 1.60

all of these prove the law of conservation of mass

One molecule of sucrose is burned with oxygen to make carbon dioxide and water.

Disaccharide sugar sucrose is composed of glucose and fructose. It is produced naturally by plants and is the main component of white sugar. C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ is the chemical formula for it.

Extraction and refining sucrose for human use can be done from either sugarcane or sugar beet. Raw sugar is created from crushing the cane, which is consistently delivered to other sectors to be refined into pure sucrose. Sugar mills generally are located in the tropical regions near the sugarcane plantations.

<em>                    C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + 12O₂  →  12CO₂ + 11H₂O</em>

When one molecule of sucrose is burnt, we get 12 carbon dioxide molecules.

Relate the strength of a weak acid to the strength of a conjugate base.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

There is a relationship between the strength of an acid (or base) and the strength of its conjugate base (or conjugate acid): The stronger the acid, the weaker its conjugate base.  The weaker the acid, the stronger its conjugate base.  The stronger the base, the weaker its conjugate acid.

explanation

The strength of an acid and a base is determined by how completely they dissociate in water. Strong acids (like stomach acid) break down or dissociate in water. Weak acids maintains their protons in water.

What type of hybridization is needed to explain why ethyne, C2H2, is linear?
Dmitrij [34]

When C-C is having a triple bond the hybridization is sp. But I am not sure how to relate that to the linear shape.

the average kinetic energy of the particles in a gas increases as the temperature of the gas increases. explain​
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Explanation: Volume versus Temperature: Raising the temperature of a gas increases the average kinetic energy and therefore the rms speed (and the average speed) of the gas molecules. Hence as the temperature increases, the molecules collide with the walls of their containers more frequently and with greater force.
